(Disclaimer: In this post I am addressing the doctrines and teaching of Catholicism and the Catholic Magisterium, not individuals who identify as Catholic.
This is so informative. What benefit is there to elevating Mary to the place of God? It is as if Mary and Christ Jesus sit at the right hand of the Father. Why must we go through Mary to get to the Son? I feel terrible thinking of this theology.
Excellent work, per usual, my friend! I did not realize Catholics pray to Mary because they believe Christ and the Father to be unapproachable! That’s interesting.
I am so very grateful you are taking the time and energy to share what you have learned with all of us. You know how passionate I am about this topic. And also how very confusing it can be. I praise God for the gifts He has given to you and your willingness to use them to glorify Him. ❤️
PS- I would absolutely buy several copies if you ever wrote a book on this subject! Think about it! 😉
Haha! I don’t know if a book is in the cards. I write articles cause I can’t stick to one topic long enough to finish a book. 🙈 But thank you for that encouragement. 🤍

Exactly. They do actually say that Mary sits at the right hand of her Son, interceding to him for us. It really turns my stomach as well.
