. What has this verse got to do with worshiping mary. Was there anywhere in the been ble where we asked to pray to mary?? Even the pole in Moses's time it was a direct instruction from God. Do not back up your idolatory with that bible verse

A young man is claiming he is on the right path with his traditional beliefs as he shared these photos online. Facebook user and traditionalist Iyierioba Uzoezie, shared a photo of a man praying in front of Virgin Mary's statue in a Catholic church and other photos of him and his idol in his shrine.

The young man who says people call him an idol worshiper - feels that the Christians (especially the Catholics) are the idol worshipers considering their form of prayers in front of a statue.

Bros say what you're sure of so you don't condemn yourself...that my friend is called common sense.

When Jesus told his disciples, This is my body and this is my blood...do this in remembrance of me. From your line of argument and understanding, they are eating bread and high on alcohol abi?

Praying in front of a statue or holy pictures is not that we are worshiping it but a channel to concentrate and remain adequately focused. Moreover, is a form of sacramental or a blessed tool which when blessed by a priest must not be descecrated.

Even in the old testament God commanded Israelites not to kneel for an image...same old testament, He also commanded them to make images. For example, the bronzen serpent which is a reflection of Christ death on the cross.

There are a lot of mysteries in life, never condemn so you won't find yourself abashed to discover all you've condemned is true when our life here is over.

Do you understand how Christ, our Redeemer feels each time we profane His Mother who is the Mother of our Lord?

Free advice...stop condemning, it doesn't add one naira to your pocket or one day to your life.

Not the Mary of Catholic Church...She is the Mother of Jesus Christ who is our God and Redeemer.

Not all apparitions we Catholics acclaim is true and authentic...devil always likes to mimic heavenly things. So take heed not to be deceived.

Truth is, we all have the capacity to reason, and one good way to understand truth in the midst of all the mayhem of doctrines is to examine facts like you were a child with no previous leanings.

Now imagine this was the first time christianity was introduced to you, and you read in your Bible in John 14:6 that no one approaches God except through Jesus Christ.

But then someone else tells you, you can actually also approach God through Mary, and many saints. For every reasoning man, you are left with two options.

1. The Bible is wrong.
2. This person is wrong.

You decide.

iSlayer:


Oh I did answer the question alright. Thank God you didn't say "worship Mary" like many goons are fond of. We pray to Mary only to intercede on our behalf to Jesus Christ as his mother and not for her to do anything that would otherwise be the Savior's prerogative.

Both are worshipping idols.
Only that the one kneeling to the statue of virgin Mary is too irate, dogmatic and self-righteous to even know he is worshipping an idol.

With that said, I'm so sure Catholics won't make heaven.
They worship graven images,
They don't read the bible,
They interfere with the dead.

Catholics are closer to Islam than they are to Christianity.

Christianity as a whole is idolatory. Exodus 20:4.

Worse is that they worship a whiteman called Jesus who didn't even exist.
There's no such person in the history of the world called Jesus Christ.


However, there was a kind black man called Yehshua or Yehoshua who lived about 2017 years ago. He was the poor people's hero, always challenging injustice and oppression of the government of his day.

Fast forward.................

When Rome hijacked Christianity in 312 AD, they didn't like the black protagonist in the ancient stories, so Pope Alexander VI went ahead to invent a fake white Jesus- Cesare Borgia who was his son. Ever since then Christians have been worshipping this man, totally without realizing they've been short changed.

At the end, it will be the love for God, self, neighbours and all that will count. Pentecostals says protestantsCatholics bow to image and pray using rosary. ProtestantCatholics says Pentecostals are using handkerchief, holy water to pray and wearing hand bands, necklace, car flex with the pictures of their G.O's as protective shield.

Fixed.
Protestants and Pentecostals are one and the same.
Catholics are neither Protestants nor Pentecostals.

Thanks for your comment that God commanded the Israelites to look up to brazen serpent and be healed, God's Instruction, right! Now the worshiping of Mary's statue, saints and angels, whose commandment is it? Or has man (the Pope) suddenly become God. When you read the bible very well, God is never pleased with idol worship, He warned against it emphatically saying "for am a Jealous God" Its a very big sin against God. Except the doers repent, My brother please, that am a catholic, father, father father is or was a catholic is not a valid argument, but embracing the truth (which is the word of God) and obeying them. My father used to be staunch catholic, and my mother a Moslem and when they found the truth (Jesus) and the pure and undiluted word of God, today by grace we have quickly changed to follow the truth. Let no man, philosophies of men, logic of men or tradition keep you in bondage and deny us of salvation in Christ Jesus.

Don't dispute facts with whatsoever you claim to believe.....

Praying with/to any form of things images names, persons be them Virgin Mary, Angels, Saints is all forms of idol worship......We are only to pray to the Father through HIS Son Jesus....in doing so we don;t need to use any forms or images or seeks his attention through Saint Peter, Paul or James........

Angels are ministering spirits send to minister to the heirs of the Kingdom....nothing more nothing less

Jesus is still an idol, because God is not a man or human being.. And the 2nd commandments warned against bowing or serving the image of anything in heaven, on earth or under the waters below the earth . so you worshiping a God in the image of a man, which is something found on earth is idolatry....Numbers 23:19 says God is not a man or human being...
Christianity is not an off shoot of Judaism, but it is just the rebranding of the cult of "the queen of heaven" mentioned in the book of Jeremiah 7...Mary is the queen of heaven, ask any catholic, "the God spell " stories where fabricated much later using the Jewish scriptures. Claiming their Jesus was the awaited messiah, but the old testament never said the messiah was coming to be worshiped or that he will be a demi God, if Jesus was Jewish he would have known all that ..

So please, research and get the facts and stop swallowing bullsheet.

Catholic Church is the Anti Christ itself, they find a way to always counter what ever the Bible says. Catholic Church is an evil cult using God's name. Their sin is worse than traditional idle worshippers. But a Catholic can still make heaven if he/she repent and denounce those evil acts.

IGNORANCE is a disease,Catholics pray in front of Mary,saints images just as Moses ,Joshua and the Israelites pray,bow and lie flat on ground before images of Golden cherubs in the covenant box placed in the holiest part of the temple,that covenant box was a copy of the one in heaven, God did not forbid the praying to him in front of lmages sanctioned by him but forbid their worship ,see golden serpent image that Israelites prayed to God before and were healed,pagan do not use their images to pray to Jesus or ask the saints in heaven who promise to intervene before God for us even after their death 2 pet 1:15, they worship demons and sun, moon,trees ,ancestors, rivers and ask them to help them. if you want to read more and get all the biblical quotations and reasons why Catholics do what they do,visit my blog www.Bibletruths aboutcatholics. and you will see more from scriptures how Satan has covered the truth.

I guess this is an handsome Italian model not Jesus

The popular comedian Robert Powell who played the role of jesus in the movie "jesus christ of Nazareth" warned Christians to desist from worshiping his image but they won't listen.

What a myopic and sentimental way of reasoning. Shall we use the same logic that Christians are idol worshippers because they have the cross on top of their churches and also inside it? To the extent that, the cross is now being worshipped and seeked for protection?
