St Mary - Devotion to Mary in Early Christianity

[@jonathankieranwriter]

Excellent, groundbreaking scholar who is absolutely at the vanguard of Late Ancient Christian historical studies regarding Mary and liturgical traditions of the early Byzantine period.

Jesus and the apostle never teach the worship of Anyone except Jesus

nonsense

You defend zealously that the apostles never taught worship of anyone but Jesus. But, are nonetheless lying. You defend the bible but preach against the bible. No one worships Mary. Even she knows she is a worm compared to Jesus, her Lord. She is nothing compared to God. But, in comparison of us to her, we are like a worm. If the mother of God considered herself a pathetic worm compared to God and even the air she breathed was a total thanksgiving, what does that mean of us...total sinners? Read your bible before you even begin to preach against Catholicism.

​@@ludwigvanbeethoven8164nobody is defending the bible it is just GOD'S infallible Word, period. Nobody is preaching to you just laying out the onvious. Not even witnessing to you, it is obvious you are held in "complete" bondage to the one you prefer to serve. You seem to forget the difference between us, we trust in a GOD who has the power to speak HIS Word to us & canonize it thru mere mortal men & that is exactly 100% true. You believe you guys gathered it up & canonized it giving it to the world. Anyone looking into that history can see the mess you caused infused with forgeries & doubt in order to take away GOD'S credibility. You do the same with HIM by taking away from HIS glory & giving some to saints, Mary, men you claim infallible (and oh what a terrible history of them) that take the place ofvthe Holy Spirit.as the vicar of Christ. A cult is a cult & y'all meet that criteria to us therefore we just don't take you seriously. A catholic with the Mary statue outside and several little Saint statues thru out the house? Really? Let me see, any attention taken away from the ALMIGHTY? Every cult or those that bum rush a religion to get in justifies & justifies. The Romans did it to Christianity & had to use mass murder to keep it alive, couldn't have those true believers out there from the last 300 years that had protested the inception of your religion and a pope. Y'all have forced your way into Christian history by forgeries & manipulation, the Jesuits were great at this & still are. As I see the homosexuals today that have developed their own churches with great emphasis on justification of homosexuality I see they use the Roman Cathlick model. For years you've tried to convince us and yourselves you don't worship Mary, this is comical as we watch & listen to y'all justify it as not worship. Like the gay person in a gay church claiming its not homosexuality it's love. We don't even hate you, we exist unfortunately with all kinds of cults in the world. I'm grateful to live in the bible belt. The day is here today, no time left, best be right because eternity which the human mind has yet to understand will be understood. Which are you going to put your trust in? I'll choose HIM & HIS Holy Word over a man you claim speaks for God is the vicar of Christ replacing the Holy Spirit and who by the way has put out some blasphemous things, my only Mediator Jesus Christ instead of Mary and instead of praying to little guy Saint statues I will come before the throne of GOD & pray directly to him.
