Kobojunkie:
1. I expressly responded to both of your questions. Are you instead unsatisfied because you did not get the exact response you desired? As for version, I don't see why it should matter what version of the book you pick up when the Greek texts can be consulted in this.

Kobojunkie:
This is what is written in John 19 vs 25
I don't know about you, but I think it would have been weird if Mary and her sister were both named Mary.

2. I intentionally disregard the content of Paul's letter here to focus instead on the relationships between these individuals previously established in the Gospels. It is utmost to clearly grasp those first before venturing into deciphering any other ideas that may have been presented later on.

Kobojunkie:
First of all, your supposed point is quite hard to follow.

---

⚈ Matthew 13 vs 55 does list Jesus Christ's brothers as James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas, but it does not indicate that they were a part of his gang of disciples.
⚈ John 19 vs 25 instead indicates that Mary, the mother of Jesus Christ, and her sister, along with Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene, stood near the cross. It does not state that Mary(the wife of Clopas) was her sister.
⚈ James and Jude mentioned in Luke 6 vs 15 - 20 could not have been the blood brothers of Jesus Christ mentioned in Matthew 13 vs 55 for obvious reasons.
⚈ Mark 15 vs 40 mentions Mary Magdalene, Salome, and Mary the mother of James and Joses. (James was her youngest son.) as some of the women who were there at the cross that day.

Second, none of what is presented above can be used to conclude that Mary, mother of Jesus Christ, did not have other children. You may want to hold this view but none of the above serves as proof of this notion of yours.

Hi everyone, I'm a 20 year old male student in college of medicine UNN, enugu campus. This is
my problem.

I get aroused by close body contact with ladies. example:

Sitting beside a lady around my age or so makes me get an erection. Even though I have MOSTLY but not totally conquered this by fighting it in my mind.

The remaining ones I've sincerely tried and not being able to overcome are:

1. when I give a female friend front hug without any ulterior motive in mind, I start to get an erection (This has happened severally and made me stop hugging ladies).

2. when standing in a crowded place like 2 submit a script or enter a class. If ladies buttocks are pressed against groin and/or their breasts on my body, I start to get an embarrassing erection even though I actually hate it and have nothing in mind. This happens to the point I have to place my hand to cover it or prevent it.

Pls, I'm a technical virgin and have made up my mind to remain celibate till marriage. I try my best not to lust after women or sexual objectify them.

PLEASE HELP ME DEAR FRIENDS.

monex:
The traditional mass is not local mass.

It is more like the old mass in latin with the priest backing the congregation. It has been the traditional mass until the vatican II council in mid nineties

Ubenedictus:
are you serious?

The Bishop of port Harcourt?.... I knew about orlu... Please can you present links to the port Harcourt celebration?

VERTEX1:
Traditional Mass is Tridentine Latin Mass. It was banned In The Catholic Church. In this mass the priest Backs the congregation and every prayers and responses are said in Latin. Browse google for more details.

You're right, adoption is another option for her but still that means she'll have to go through the 9months of pregnancy and extra time to wean the baby, don't you think it will affect the studies?

And moreso, it's not easy being in an orphanage and grappling with the feeling that your parents never wanted you

sparog:
I thought abortion is legal in Ghana

It's better to abort than to bring a child into the world with no means of taking care of the child

HenryInno1:
Your last sentence sha....what about those carved stones in catholic church?....

Kingdante:
I can’t be going back and forth with you..... now you sounding pained, take it easy.





I said Eastern Orthodox Church sir,

Anybody with internet can get the history of the origin of the bible, I mean anybody and don’t act like you got information not available to the public(those kind of information are locked up in a secret library in Rome that even most cardinals cant access)

Anybody can read the bible and understand with the help of the Holy Spirit, and you will be playing yourself if you think or believe that the Holy Spirit is found or available only to catholics cos at the end of the day God is not interested in which set you belong to be it Anglican or Pentecostal.



Your last paragraph really got me laughing, Legion of Mary is both good and holy .... what makes it holy sir educate me? Is it biblical? You talking about intercessory or mediating, if you claim to know the bible so well wouldn’t you have known that 1 Timothy 2:5 says? JESUS is the only mediator between man and God and nobody in between wasn’t that what Jesus died for? ( and pls don’t tell me about that wedding at Canaan that happened before the death if at all)


I have some questions for you sir...


- Do you know Praying repetitive words using Rosary beads is forbidden.

If you truly read your bible you should have Seen that in Matthew 6:7



- why does the pope have to choose who are to be called saint and who aren’t ? Was the average Christian in the church at Philippi called a saint, in distinction to bishops and deacons?You can check these scriptures to confirm 1 Corinthians 1:2, Philippians 1:1 .......Maybe you missed them when you read your bible sir



- Do you know every according to the bible every bishop must be married? Check 1 Timothy 3:2-5 How come the Pope woke up on morning and felt celibate men commit less sin and ban priests from getting married also see what the bible says regarding those dogma and culture against marriage Timothy 4:1-3



- Do you know Baptism is full immersion in water, not sprinkling? It’s still in your bible



- Do you know the Dogma and culture originated by the pope is forbidden by God? It’s in your bible in Mark 7:7-9


Let me not even go into the Bowing, knelling and kissing of images of Jesus and Mary both at the grotto and on good Friday ( also practised in Legion of Mary and almost every society in the Catholic Church)

Let me no go into infant baptism too.


I can go on and on and on..... before i left the Catholic Church I wrote over 1000 of such practises that were against what the bible says.






If you truly read that bible you would have seen so much contradiction, ask questions and do a lot of thinking.




I bet you don’t even know the connection between the Catholic Church (Jesuit priest) and the Freemasonry.......





The deception is real my brother.... peace be with you.

StormInc:
Bible Believing. Lol. You think your Bible is some divine write up. The Old Testament is the original work of the inventors of Yahweh. The Romans copied and related their Jesus to it. Today the Jews don't believe Jesus to be any thing more than a mere mortal. They practice Judaism and uses the Torah which is the same thing as the Old Testament, so will you call them bible believing or not?

Do yourself a favor, open Wikipedia and Search for the page "Yahweh". Read and digest the article, it will do you a lot of good.

StormInc:
Lol. I really have not much against Christianity, the only thing is their belief that a white man is God and he died for their sins.

But Catholism, it was something I was in so now, I hate it with more than passion. I don't hate Catholics, it is the religion - Catholism - I hate. Catholism is different from Protestantism by a large margin

StormInc:
You say, what was this bible verse talking about;

4.“You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. 5. You shall not bow down to them or worship them" Exodus 20:4-5

StormInc:
I'm not a Christian simple, I don't believe Jesus to be any God or way to God. I believe in God.

StormInc:
Whereas I don't believe in Jesus, I don't also take the NT seriously. This kind of miracle is impossible, it can never happen. Only Technology can translate languages at a go. Someone cannot be speaking and different natives will be hearing it in their individual tounges. Going further, why can't modern pastors do same, instead it is "Yakayaka Yokoyoko" that is their own speaking in tongues

StormInc:
I'm not a Christian simple, I don't believe Jesus to be any God or way to God. I believe in God.

StormInc:
I'm not a Christian simple, I don't believe Jesus to be any God or way to God. I believe in God.

StormInc:
Is it only Christians that believe in God?

StormInc:
Yes Im anti-catholic if that is what you call it. I'm no longer a Christian doesn't mean I don't believe in God. Catholism is a religion of deception, try to justify it as you may but it doesn't change the fact. They do and believe in lot of things that are not biblical.

StormInc:
I'm not trying to be biased but if God exists and the Bible is his word and Heaven and Hell is real, All Catholics are going down to Hell. To me, Catholism is a religion on its own. They hold various strange beliefs.

StormInc:
Really? Meaning you didn't read my post.

I said quoted from the Roman Catholic Missal. Try and grab a copy of the Missal or the Sacramentary and open the pages of the Glorious Mysteries.

I quoted the 1st, 3rd, 4th and 5th

StormInc:
To start with, I am no longer a Christian. When I was a Christian, I was a Catholic. I was an altar server who later went into the Seminary and then dropped so I can boldly tell you that I know so much about the Roman Catholic Church, so much than you even think you know.

Christianity came from the Roman's and the first church is the Catholic Church. In the early stages of Christianity in Rome, the people held different beliefs and knowledge about Jesus. When Constantine the Great (Saint Constantine) converted to Christianity, he and the Nicea council (The first one set up in 325) integrated Christianity. They did a lot of changes, brought about the Nicene Creed (presently used in the Catholic Church) and selected the books of the New Testament. These things happened over hundred years after the supposed death of Jesus and his disciples - Apostles.

Have you asked yourself why the Gospel of Peter (the first and most renowned Apostle of Jesus, also the first pope of the Catholic Church) was not included in the New Testament? If you are a Catholic, take your time and go through the non-canonical gospels and figure out why they were rejected. The Gospel of Mary is even sourced from Mary Magdalene not even the "Virgin Mary ".

So my question still remains, where was these texts and first hand narrations of Mary gotten from?
