cyrilamx: Mary’s virginity post partum, while not explicitly taught in Scripture, is repeatedly taught by the Latin, Greek, and Syriac Fathers. and you were right in rejecting the idea that any other offspring should come from the same virginal womb from which Christ was born according to the flesh. . . . HOW IS THIS A PROBLEM? In other words, it must be shown that a Church teaching firmly rooted in Tradition (i.e., the oral word of God) and proposed by the Magisterium I POSTED SOME OF THE ABOVE SO THAT YOU WILL KNOW THAT I READ, AND I SEEK KNOWLEDGE. THIS PARTICULAR "SOURCE" YOU REFERRED ME TO IS JUST EMPTY. http://www.cuf.org/2004/04/marys-perpetual-virginity/ |

cyrilamx: Trash, Trash, Trash. Mary asked because she had not had any intercourse with Joseph, which Matthew 1:25 also mentioned. Your assumption of life-long vow is what it is - ASSUMPTION. And you want sane persons to accept your assumption! |

The Bible never told u it is the only Rule of the Christian faith, stop this sola scriptura madness. Pentecostalism lie they it adheres to the Bible, yet it constituting nuisance all over and cannot agree on a particular doctrine. Plz tell me what the early Christians used as Rule of faith for the first 300 years prior the setting up of the canons of the Scriptures in 393 in Hippo and 397 in carthage? Or have you not study the gradual development and fixing of new testament canons by the Catholic Church? Investnow2017: |

cyrilamx: Oh sorry, by that time the church had deviated from the true way as prophesied by Paul the apostle, Acts 20:28-30. And this is no surprise because Jesus Christ had said this would happen. So you do not know this? |

Oga it seems u are even wiser than the Church fathers...the only reason God allowed allowed Joseph to marry Mary even though earlier betrothed was to give her a legal backing cos of the divine child in her womb so that she won't be stoned to death for getting pregnant out of wedlock. I keep repeating myself that pentecostals are shallow reader of the scriptures....they can't comprehend the mystery of the holy writ. Mary as the Ark of the new covenant can't not be touched ( that is engaged in sex with by Joseph) cos she was already purified by the Holy Spirit and carried the new Covenant in her womb. There have been few married saints in the history of the Church that never had conjugal sex. Also will u be bold enough after seeing the miraculous conception of Christ, go ahead to have sex if u were Joseph? That means you don't reverence the Divine, in their allegorical interpretation of Ezek.44:2, the Church Fathers sees the shut gate of Ezek as the womb of Mary which the Lord God has entered tru and shut to any other.

Emyogalanya:My dear, thanks for the correction. The verse is Mt 19:12 not Mt 19:22. Eunuch for the same of the Kingdom is different from Celibacy? What makes them different? The issue discussed here is if Mary had other Children. Mary is not God, there is the worship that belongs to God alone called "Latria". You can google that to know the meaning . What the Church gives Mary is called "Hyperdulia", and to the saints "dulia". Mary is a creature of God. Now food for thought (John 19:26-27) When Jesus therefore had seen his mother and the disciple standing whom he loved, he saith to his mother: Woman, behold thy son. and to the disciple, "Here is your mother." From that time on, this disciple took her into his home. Could Jesus take his mother and give to John, if he was not the only Child? Remember this is the Gospel of John, so John is saying that from that time on (not temporarily), he took Mary now His Mother to his home. |

I tire for this una pentecostal ideology...the Church already deviated from the true way, yet still went collated from among the numerous writings of the New testaments and set up the canons of the New testaments? The Church has deviated, yet still set up Sunday as a day of worship, still fixes Easter to celebration the resurrection, still took the Gospel to hostile lands? Hmmm. My dear the words of Christ to the Catholic Church still remains: the gate of Hell can never prevail against her. This despite the failings of some of her members and even leadership, persecution within and without, she still living the divine mission of teaching all nations. Empires that wanted to tear her down have all been lost to history, Protestants churches like Lutheran, Anglican, Methodism, etc that rose to criticise and counter her, have all shrink into oblivion or be submerge by the world. Now it is the pentecostals who are interested in personal gains owing to their merchandise of the words of Christ and screaming Bible alone that are also attacking the Church forgetting that it is a divine fortress that can't be tore down. Sadly, pentecostals can't agree on a Bible passage nor can they prove that the Bible itself said it is the sole Rule of the Christian faith. Ask yourself if the splinter group pentecostals have set up everywhere do not make mockery of the prayer of Christ that his Church be ONE as recorded in Jn 17? Investnow2017: 1 Like |

Emyogalanya: Where did your see that celibate people live away from the people? Have you not heard that St Paul was a celibate?1Cor 7 Secondly, in Mt 19:12, Our Lord identified 3 types of Eunuchs Mt 19:12 For there are eunuchs who were born that way(1st type), and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by others--(2nd type) and there are those who choose to live like eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven( 3rd type). You are referring to the 1st or 2nd type. I am referring to the 3rd type of Eunuchs |

You see you don't even understand the meaning of Co- redemptrix, mediatrix to mention but a few of the privilege title our Lady enjoy. The fact that such a word is not found in scripture doesn't mean the essence or course is not there. Just like you can't find the words Resurrection nor Transfiguration, nor even Bible doesn't mean the act which these words represent do not exist. Now back to our Co-redemptrix analogy, by the FIAT of Mary, agreeing to cooperate with the divinity to become the Mother of God the Son, she already cooperated with Christ to redeem us. She started our salvific mission just as Eve started the destruction of man. Satan as a fallen angel visited Eve it is only to set the course of salvation in order for the Archangel Gabriel to visit Mary. If St Paul in 1.Cor.3:9-10 referred to themselves as co-worjers with God in the mission of saving souls, how much more will the Blessed Virgin Mary earn the title as CO-REDEMPTRIX( AS A WOMAN U use the feminine of redeemer to qualify her) I hope I have explained to you that how the Bible u claim to follow uphold such title even if the word is not found but the Essence which is cooperating with Christ to redeem us is biblical..

Oga in biblical scholarship...go and read Vatican 11 documents " Verbum Dei" it is there. The Church allows for critical study of scripture in order not to repeat same error of imprisoning Galileo who said the sun and not the earth was centre of the heavenly bodies following Corpernician discovery. Some Church then became angry and Arrested Galileo because they believe he was reversing age old believe that the son do rises and set, hence the Bible teaching that Joshua prayed and sun stood still. Science and discovery of Fedinard Magellan has proven that the earth is spherical and the earth, moon revolves round the sun. So you with numerous evidence before us that numerous discoveries as old as millions of years already negated the Bible teaching that the earth from Adam is 6000 years. Ask ur priest to clarify to you that I said the first 11 chapters of Genesis ain't historical, infact the creation story is not different from the Babylonian account of creation found in Epic of Gilgamesh which infact is older and don't be an arm chair Catholic. As Galileo said "the Bible teaches us how to go to heaven and not how the heavenly bodies move" in a nutshell, the Bible authors were not concern about giving accurate historical account...rather only to portray to us God is the creator of the World. quote author=Emyogalanya post=63668367] MYTH DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT IS MYTH?

Emyogalanya: Its not the having of children that is the problem, but the act. The marriage of Joseph and Mary was in name only. Imagine you were Joseph and the woman you married was impregnated by the *Holy Spirit* and she gave birth to the promised *Saviour*, your messiah, your GOD, would you be able to even think of her as just a woman? Talk more of having marital relations with her? You wouldn't dare! at least a God fearing man wouldn't. And Joseph was a God fearing man. |

"I and the Father are one" John 10:30 Also verse 38; But if I do, though you may not believe me, believe the works that you may know and believe that the father is in me and I am in the father "That all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father, who sent him" John 5:23 Whatever honour you give to God the father, you must give to God the son |

Re: Birth Of Jesus: Did Mary Have Other Children Aside From Jesus Christ? by ClareMarie: 2:34am On Dec 29, 2017 |
Emyogalanya: Actually, you are the one not making sense. Because the bible I read said Joseph wanted to quietly divorce her so as not to cause her shame. That is not something someone who is angry does. When the angel told him not to be afraid to take Mary as his wife, of course he will listen to his God and give the son of God a stable home. Do you not know what kind of shame it would have been if Jesus was born of a single mother? Please listen to your God and accept the truth that is staring you in the face. Joseph would never have touched the mother of his Lord in a sexual way, never! |
