Odidigboigbo:I think you should shut up instead. Hope you know Nigeria is the poverty capital of the World? And, who told you the church has no role to play in employments? Not saying building churches for worship is bad, but the case here seems like a competition lately, from Paul Eneche to David Ibiyeomi and now this. Does erecting magnificent church structures with hungry worshippers make any sense to you? |

Na Church and mosque we Sabi build in this part of the world, with billions being spent at times while institutions that can absorbed graduates are most times neglected. Imagine how unemployment would have reduced if industries are springing up @ the level mosques and churches are. Even with the ever increasing places of worship being built naija keeps getting dirty... Such a pity 1 Like |

Ever8090:So funny u are, those images and praying through the intercession of the mother of Jesus is not a sin, we are not praying but invoking them to beg the lord on our behalf.Images also help simplefy the gospel to the illiterates especially the aged,the rosary is a summary of the bible for those that cannot read to atlest pray with. So I ought you bro,to come back and really learn and understand this good doctrine,for there is no how any sincere practicing catholic will miss heaven for the gospel is been made easy for us to understand and follow the part ways to heaven and spend eternity therein. 1 Like |

Ever8090: I have a friend who had the same struggle for years. She started praying that she wanted Mary to appear to her to prove that she was real. She became a member of Scripture Union when she couldn't live with the issue of Mary. She was born a Catholic. This girl said this prayer for nearly a year without a sign. One day, she was on her way to the market. Mother Mary appeared in the cloud close to her. The babe nearly fainted. She had her halo on with the chaplet hanging over her clipped fists. The girl fell down and started praising her. At some point, she ran to bring her siblings to see Mother Mary with her. Upon getting to that same place, she has disappeared. Today, that girl has sworn that she would die in the Catholic Church. My brother, I didn't make this story up. It happened in Emene, Enugu. Heavily bodies are no magic; God is real. If you can ask a friend to pray for you, why can't you ask Mother Mary? 2 Likes |

Mrchiblinks: If its a matter of honor alone, then whats the necessity of erecting an image to project such practices! Moreover if you are acquainted with the history of Catholicism you would agree with me that image worship began at some point. Do you also know that according to catholic doctrine Mary did not die a natural death but was taken to heaven just like Jesus Christ, may be this erroneous belief is the key factor behind this idolatrous practice of worshiping her image. If you count this to be wrong kindly send a rebuttal with evidence of what it is and who you think is wrong doctrinally between the church in Jerusalem under the Apostles of Christ and Rome under the papacy. |

Ever8090:You were never a Catholic else you would have known that catholic don't pray to Mary neither do they worship her but seek her maternal intercession . Remember the wedding where Christ performed his first miracle, they didn't approach him directly but approached Mary instead to intercede on their behalf. In Luke 1: 46-56, and Malachi 3:12 Mary said all the nations, from generations to generations shall call me BLESSED. Funny thing is that people bow to their fake pastors and call them daddy ,worship their pastors' wives but abuse those who honour the woman who made our salvation possible, the most sacred woman in the bible . 3 Likes |

Soldiercole: This are all doctrines of men based on assumption and presumption. How do you invoke the name of Mary when the bible said there is only one God and one mediator between God and man who is the Lord Jesus Christ himself. This implies that Between God and Jesus, no intermediary, and between the human race and Jesus no intermediary. Only Jesus died for the sin of mankind and it is by this blood he makes propitiation/intercession for the human race, for without shedding of blood there is no remission of sin. Mary did not die for the human race and therefore not qualified to intercede for the human race in any capacity, Mary was a sinner who found grace in God's sight, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God; Mary inclusive, and the word of God cannot be broken. Moreover there is no name given to men by which we can be saved except the name of Jesus, so of what relevance is the name of Mary in all of this. Mary was a vessel like Elizabeth and none of them are to be worshiped or honored in any form. God and Jesus and the Holy Spirit are the three personalty deserving of our worship in heaven and on earth for they existed from the very beginning and all things were made by them, none else even Angels are deserving of our worship. As for the Angel greetings it was a normal greeting devoid of any worship, God has to prepare her mind towards what was about to be done through her which many of her contemporary were well aware of and for which they all kept themselves, she's just a normal young lady preparing to settle down and if not because it was God's appointed time she would have done so and no longer qualified. In-fact to be married as a non-virgin in Israel in those days was a serious offense that attracts capital punishment if reported by the groom. Also consider the line of the greetings, that says blessed are you among women, she's just one among the many women who are blessed, the Angel did not say, you are the most blessed among women or blessed are you above all women. So to cap it all, the felicitation was that of preparation towards fulfilling the assignment about to be given her by God and her reward is that right now she's in heaven not at the right hand of the throne on of God on high reserved for Christ the only intercessor for mankind. 2 Likes |

BabaJoe001:Sorry to say. But the other persons you are comparing with are living persons, not images. Secondly, the Bible says Christ is interceding for us already. Romans 8:34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us. Why bow/pray to Mary for intercession again. Isn't Christ enough? And shouldn't Christ be man's only legitimate approach to God? |
