Why We Must Stop Praying Or Bowing To Mary by Letsgoandfuck(m): 8:50am On Jan 10, 2016
The bible recorded that mary was the mother of jesus. No doubt, we all honour her because of the roles she played in bringing forth the saviour. Meanwhile, she was only favoured amongst other virgins in her time. She wasnt the only virgin as at that time; neither was she more righteous than the others. Permit me to say she was just lucky.

Some of the reasons we must stop praying to her.

John 14: 6 . jesus said, i am the way, the truth and the life, no one cometh to the father except through him.

The bible didn't say we can talk to God through Mary. Mary's role ended when jesus became an adult.

Moreso, Mary was not included in the Trinity. Mary was like you and I while she was on earth. She had no extra powers. Let's not attribute extra powers to her.

Finally

,Exodus 20:4 (KJV) Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:

Why bow to an image? Image of Jesus, mary Joseph or God himself!

In the book of Revelation 19:10 (KJV) And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.

That was john trying to bow to an Angel, but the angel stopped him, if the angel hadnt stopped him, it means tge Angel wants to equate himself to God.

Pls. Make una leave mary o. She is not God, neither does she deserve praise or worship.

What is your business with the way other people worship God? Why not concentrate on the relationship between you and your own god? You have not quarreled with the Muslim way of worship; or Sango, Ifa, Jewish, free thinkers, etc. You just want to stoke trouble as your own brand of Christianity.

Pray and bow to Oritsejafor and Adeboye...and the Ark of the Covenant (Joshua7:6)

She wasn't 'lucky' because God did not choose at random.
As the bible rightly puts it, Mary is highly favoured; blessed among all women.


She in particular was chosen to bear our Lord Jesus Christ who is the saviour of ALL men which includes Mary (Luke 1:46-47), those that were dead...and even those that are yet to be born.

@OPS. May I suggest something? Pls don't get mad at me, but can you change your moniker? "Let's go and Bleep" doesn't depict a "mind" of someone who wants to uphold the tenates of Christ. Once again, am sorry.

Mary is God in Christ Jesus. Never stop praising Her unless you are jealous.

I still don't get you people,Catholics on nairaland have told you all a thousand times that they dnt worship mary neither do they pray through her.
Yet you keep making a case against Mary,

This how catholics pray.
1. Invocation of the most blesse trinity
2. The lords prayer
3. Supplications
4. Intercession from the heavenly host
5. All made through christ our lord
6. And ending the prayers with the invocation of the most blessed trinity
