Take the notes. That’s helpful. But as you and you family are in this time of transition, be sensitive to them. Be the most loving person you can be. Pray with them , read scripture together, etc. but avoid arguments at all costs. Explain if they ask a legitimate question, but stop the conversation if it’s turning into an argument. I had to learn the hard way.

@@danpozzi3307 i grew up a protestant Christian, & we never really stuck to One Church. So my dad bounced around alot, we went to Assembly of God, Pentecostal, Methodist churches, Baptist Churches. But that actually helped me see the truth when I got older, bc I remember all the diff churches we would go to, then yrs later we would change churches . and my dad would say this church was doing falsehood, that it's not a good church, so as I got older that's what helped me see the problem in protestantism. So when I became an adult I learned more, that Assemblies of God believed in things I didn't know the Methodist didn't believed in, I didn't know Pentecostals taught diff things. Then i realized these churches are not just teaching diff things, they have a totally diff Gospel. All these churches have salvation issue differences, I basically saw the problem with protestantism 1st. then I started studying other religions, and helped me see Catholicism was Biblical 100% It was the scriptures that I couldn't deny anymore, I just finally realized I had the wrong interpretation of the scriptures, & I saw that sola scriptura is a self refuting argument💯 But did that answer your question my friend

As an ex-Protestant, I really struggled to understand why appealing to Mary could benefit me when I could approach God directly. But, much prayer, experience and time revealed to me that I could not master my weaknesses and failures nor acquire the graces I so desired. I realized that I needed the help of additional intercession. Asking Mary to pray for me was the obvious choice. I began to say the Rosary - regularly and in a disciplined way. After some time, I began to notice significant changes in me. Gradually I began to recognize Mary as a gift of God to us Christians. She does indeed intercede for us and God hears and honors our appeals to her.

@melissaa6532 remember the wedding of Canah? Mary told Jesus that the people ran out of wine, what did He respond? It is not my time yet. She told the people to do whatever He said, and Jesus went out of the Father's schedule to call it someway, just to please His Holy Mother, and He only did it for Her, nobody else. Why? You may ask, well, He being a perfect man followed the law perfectly, so He honored His Father and His Mother perfectly, He could not let Her look bad in front of all the people. Now, even after His resurrection He is still fully man, therefore He is still the Son of Mary, why do you think He would stop honoring Her? And She, being our loving mother, wouldn't it be nice to have Her asking Him in our behalf to go out of His way to help us get closer to Him? And if our goal in life is to follow and imitate Jesus in everything, why not also in honoring His Holy Mother.

1 Timothy 2:5 - "There is one God, and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus." `The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.…For in him all things were created, things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities. All things were created through him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.` "The Lord created me at the beginning of His work, the first of His acts of long ago. Ages ago I was set up, at the first, before the beginning of the Earth. When there were no depths I was brought forth, when there were no springs abounding with water. Before the mountains had been shaped, before the hills, I was brought forth- when He had not yet made earth and fields, or the world’s first bits of soil. When God established the heavens, I was there, when He drew a circle on the face of the deep, when He made firm the skies above. When He established the fountains of the deep, when He assigned to the sea its limit, so that the waters might not transgress his command and when He marked out the foundations of the earth, then I was beside Him, like a master worker. I was His daily delight, rejoicing before Him always."

@@seanrathmakedisciples1508 Sean, That is not all. Remember as well that Jesus gave power to His Church to forgive sins. A power not present in protestant churches and sects. Only available in Catholic and Orthodox churches. Here is why: ●JOHN 20:19-23 19. When it was evening on that day, the first day of the week, and the doors of the house where the disciples had met were locked for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said, ‘Peace be with you.’ 20. After he said this, he showed them his hands and his side. Then the disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord. 21. Jesus said to them again, ‘Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you.’ 22. When he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, ‘RECEIVE THE HOLY SPIRIT. 23. If you FORGIVE the sins of any, they are FORGIVEN them; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.’ The Apostle James confirms the practice of confession of sins. ●JAMES 5:14-16 14. Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. 15. And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up. If they have sinned, they will be forgiven. 16. Therefore CONFESS your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective. -St. Paul confirms the reception of the power to forgive sins from Christ: ●2 CORINTHIANS 5, 18-19 18. All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and GAVE US the MINISTRY of RECONCILIATION; 19. that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and ENTRUSTING TO US the message of RECONCILIATION. It is therefore a clear Catholic doctrine that the Church, from the earliest times of its existence, believed in the power to forgive sins as granted by Christ to the Apostles and passed on to their successors, by the imposition of hands. THE APOSTLES IMPOSED HANDS 1.- On the newly baptized, that they might receive the gifts of the Holy Ghost in confirmation (Acts 8:17, 19; 19:6); 2.- On those to be promoted to holy orders (Acts 6:6; 13:3; 1 Timothy 4:14; 2 Timothy 1:6; Matthew 13); 3.- On others to bestow some supernatural gift or corporal benefit (Acts). The imposition of hands rite was so constantly employed that the "imposition of hands" came to designate an essential Catholic doctrine HEBREWS 6:2 2 You don’t need further instruction about baptisms, THE LAYING ON OF HANDS, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment. May God bless your discernment.

When I was a teenager, long before my conversion to Catholism, an evangelist was whipping the crowd into a frenzy of what we viewed as worship. This was Alabama and he was trying to make the point that the Ten Commandments demanded we put God first in worship so we should get more excited and give God more applause than the Crimson Tide. I was all for spirited worship, but the moment caught me off guard because I knew he was misquoting. The Ten Commandments demand we worship ONLY God. Only. I immediately realized that there was nothing we were doing to "worship" that we didn't already do to honor, cheer, comfort or encourage living human beings. Even prayer. How many times had pastors emphasized that prayer just meant "talk to." This bothered me for a long time.

Constantine's church is a pagan mish mash of many gods, idols, costumed occult rituals, superstition, and lies. For centuries popes have burned or hidden any knowledge that might empower the people to self-realization without the interference of church authority. The Vatican is a den of thieves, the mother of harlots, the Synagogue of Satan. There is no trinity of three equal gods in the Bible, no purgatory, no divine goddess Mary people should pray to. The church burned Jan Hus to the stake, and they have killed millions of innocent people in Crusades, Inquisitions, and holy wars to this day. Scripture tells us not to kill, but Christians have been on a killing spree since the Council of Nicaea.

@william cloud how can you even assume you know the mind of God. Here is what we do know. God started a church and gave it Authority and he would recognize it in heaven and on Earth. Since the church recognizes the importance of Mary and that God recognizes his Church's Authority I think I'll stick with that

It's these last few months that I'm really being confronted with how wrong I am in a lot of things; it actually grieves me a lot. Please pray for me that I may be guided towards the truth, I still struggle with a lot of topics; but I really get drawn more and more into Catholicism.

Hey @@mustardseed123 right now I am doing great. I've finally sort of settled. It's been a really difficult time, especially since I was shunned by my previous congregation and I lost a lot of people I love. That said, I don't see me ever going back to the way I was. I've really learned a lot, and I am happy that I'm a baptised into the Catholic Church! It took me some effort to find a good parish, but I found a real good parish with loving people and also a priest who takes things seriously. Unfortunately I also encountered some where things weren't taken serious. I think two things really helped me: 1. Understanding that having fellowship is of absolute vital importance, and really doing my best to get to know the people. 2. To not be over-anxious and having anxiety as a basis to study things, but also not to let those nagging doubts or difficulties remain; read some good books on topics that are difficult, it will really help when done with the right motivation. I could say a whole lot more, feel free to ask more if there's anything specific, or if you wish prayers, or whathever 🙂

She was the most blessed woman in history but she has passed on and her body is in the grave waiting with all the other saints for the resurrection while her spirit is in the heavenly realm along with all the spirits of the saints whose bodies are in the grave. Yes Mary was the most blessed woman but the entire new testaments focus is on her son Jesus and what He did for us. You have 20 verses in the new testament that reference Mary by name and yet not one verse to promote her past being the mother of Jesus and being the most blessed woman in history. The writers of the new testament point out the children of Mary and the brothers and sisters of Jesus and yet do not point out the amazing attributes that you ascribe to her? I call her Mary the mother of my savior , I do not call her a verb.

Just by the way. It's as though God himself knows nothing of the Catholic doctrines of Mary because... In the Bible, in both the Old and the New Testament, all Believers always pray DIRECTLY to God the Father. And in the New Testament it's always directly to God the Father, "in the name of Jesus". In fact when the disciples asked Jesus himself how to pray he said: "... your Father knows what you need before you ask Him. Pray, then, in this way: ‘Our Father who is in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come..." Matthew 6:8-9 And... "But you, when you pray, go into your inner room, close your door and pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you." Matthew 6:6 And in God's Word Jesus himself intercedes for us, not his human mother. This is exactly what it says: "Therefore He is able also to save forever those who draw near to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them." Hebrews 7:25 Christ Jesus is He who died, yes, rather who was raised, who is at the right hand of God, who also intercedes for us. Romans 8:34 And the Holy Spirit: In the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words; Roman 8:26 That's good enough for me. So, in conclusion, in the Bible the idea is NOT to go to the Son's human mother (or to anyone else), who then goes to the Son, who then goes to the Father with your request. No, your Heavenly Father's wish and desire is that you come DIRECTLY to Him with all your prayers and petitions. I'm not kidding. Check it out for yourself. So why go in little circles when the Father wants, and even commands, that we come directly to Him. "In that day you will ask in My name, and I do not say to you that I will request of the Father on your behalf; for the Father Himself loves you, because you have loved Me and have believed that I came forth from the Father." John 16:26-27

In my late 30s, I returned to school and have an advanced degree from a Jesuit university in Pastoral Studies. I left feeling like someone had pulled apart their Father’s watch but had no clue how to reassemble it. The pages of scripture, once a complete Bible, were left spread across the floor of the classroom. Thank you Brant.

However, a number of other Catholic doctrines about the Virgin Mary have been developed by reference to sacred scripture, theological reasoning and church tradition. >>>Why do Catholics pray to Mary? Catholics do not pray to Mary as if she were God. Prayer to Mary is memory of the great mysteries of our faith (Incarnation, Redemption through Christ in the rosary), praise to God for the wonderful things he has done in and through one of his creatures (Hail Mary) and intercession (second half of the Hail Mary). It still admits they pray to Mary!!! ----Who is the mother of the rosary? Our Lady of the Rosary (Latin: Beatae Mariae Virginis a Rosario), also known as Our Lady of the Holy Rosary, is a Marian title. The Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary, formerly known as Feast of Our Lady of Victory and Feast of the Holy Rosary is celebrated on 7 October in the General Roman Calendar. It is widely believed that in 1214 St. Dominic had a vision of Mary. She is said to have presented him with the rosary, both the beads and the prayers to be prayed. Dominic had a tremendous devotion to Mary and the rosary, which he promoted wherever he traveled to preach. If it was biblical, why invent it??? >>>Only Jesus and the Holy Spirit are qualified to be our intercessors. (Romans 8:26,34).

Jesus established the Catholic Church. He promised us that He would be with His Church and us until the end of time. On the night of the Last Supper, Jesus prayed to His Father that we would be united with Him as one, just as He and the Father are one. He left the Holy Spirit to protect His Church from error. The Catholic Church cannot teach anything that is in error in terms of faith and morals. Teaching Mary as the Mother of God, her perpetual virginity, her queenship in Heaven, are dogmas. They are without error.

I, for one, follow the teachings of the Church that gave us the Bible, started I 33 AD BY Jesus at Pentecost. “The CHURCH is the pillar and foundation of truth.” 1 Tim 3:15.

@@JHH1027 So what do you do when Mary the mother of our savior is NOT elevated to be anything more than the most blessed woman in history and the mother of our Lord . Matthew 26:1-13 Jesus tells us to remember WHO? Not His own mother! Matthew 12:48-50 Everything you learn about Mary that is not found in scripture, is man made speculation and belief . Heb 12:2 tells us to focus on who? I, for one, follow the teachings of the Church that gave us the Bible, started I 33 AD BY Jesus at Pentecost. “The CHURCH is the pillar and foundation of truth.” 1 Tim 3:15. So do you follow the scriptures to prove what the church tells you is correct ? Acts 17:11

@TruthSeeker523425 жыл бұрын
@William Cloud So Jesus on earth wasn't God, what a demonic blasphemy. He either wasn't God or he was split into two persons. You just rejected the Trinity because you dislike Catholicism. You can't say Jesus is God without saying Mary was the mother of God.

@William Cloud Did Jesus start being God after he was born? That's the Adaptionist heresy, very close to the Nestorian heresy. You know what, let's make this short and easy. When God says that he is "the first and the last" (Isaiah 44,6), could he theoretically say in the same sentence that he was dead?

The laughter you both bring is contagious. Love it! An eye opener for me is how the rosary is symbolic of Mary as the ark of the new covenant in leading us into battle as the original ark did. As was the virginity law in Numbers. I have not read the book, yet, but will. Thank you both for leading us all into a deeper truth. God bless.

@@DarkAngel-cj6sx I converted from the Protestant faith and at first, I had concerns about Mary being too central to the Catholic teaching. But then I had an experience where I felt Jesus saying to me that all that he had was mine, so therefore, his mother was mine, too. After that, I felt like I had been welcomed into Jesus' family and I could know and enjoy and love all the people he did, particularly Mary and St. Joseph.
