What About the Virgin Mary?
If the Virgin Mary, venerated by Catholics so as to call the Mather of God, why are not prophecies about it in the New Testament that one day would be so important?

In fact, you are in error. Off the top of my head, I can not think of two in the Gospel of Luke.
First, as the angel addresses kecharitomene. This is the past participle of charitoo perfect. It is the only place that is used in writing. Which literally translates as "full of grace." The only other place where listening is a language similar to talking about Jesus. Moreover, as the past perfect form, and she is always full of grace. It is not a function of the birth of Jesus, but rather an act of the Parent from its inception. Unlike us who are baptized in the Spirit. Lucas assumed that it was like an Eva and God from the beginning. Was without original sin. You will not find even a dispute between reformers like Luther and Calvin on this issue. Luther was very concerned about anti-Protestant sentiments Mary. Whereas burned 20,000 Baptists in the game disagree with him, I would say it would be busy implementing a number of Protestants for heresy on right now.
Secondly, also in Lucas. "All generations will call me blessed." This is seen by Catholics as a scriptural prophecy and something of a statement. We see it as holy. She is the chosen one lucky, lucky to be able to keep God in the world. She is the daughter and the servant of the Most High King and the Father in heaven, she is the mother of our Blessed Lord and Master Jesus Christ, and is the wife of the Holy Spirit. In addition, the Old Testament command to honor your father and mother, which is usually translated into English as "honor", is actually better translated as glory. It is the honor of the old English meaning of the phrase "your honor."
Jesus as an obedient son would have glorified his mother and father. Imitation of Christ is considered a very important way of being Christian. We are just imitating.
Moreover, at the wedding at Cana, Jesus refuses to perform a miracle for her mother. His response was to send him, God Almighty, to the administration to perform the miracle. Due to its faithful. God commanded it and He listened.
Finally, John is highly symbolic in the Gospel Jesus passess attention on John and says she is now your mother. " The early Church interpreted this as she was placed in the care of the church and now she is our mother and Christ is our brother.
Although I disagree with this interpretation of the early Church Revelations about women that leads to Christ and to defeat Satan, we can not doubt that any reader would have been early identified as Maria.
Outside of Scripture, you have the history of the Dormition, whose party was this week. Dormition, also called the Resurrection and Assumption of Mary is the history of death and the rise of Mary. An interesting aside is that the early Christians was held in as many relics as possible. If you go to San Pedro in Rome Basillica, you're in the tomb of Peter. You can go to the tomb of Paul. You can find the bones of the most important of the early Christians, except Mary, who said in early Christian stories ascended into heaven. An interesting element of the story comes from the Thomas Christians.
Thomas Christians are Christians become the apostle Thomas in India. They were out of touch with the rest of Christendom for over 1000 years. When the Portuguese arrived in India to convert to Christianity, which, in shock, is sung at the Mass Thomas had left. According to the Christians of India, Thomas appeared to Mary after his resurrection and that sent him to preach. Ultimately was martyred in Kerala. This compensation is analogous to the story of Thomas, which was recorded and east, as it goes out with an unknown destination.
She became more important during the first of the early Church because of disputes about who Jesus was. She received the title of Theotokos to make things clear about Jesus. He was both true God of true God and true man of true man. She is the guarantor of his humanity. She is not the test was an illusion since many Gnostic groups claimed. His complaint was that only seemed to have a body. He also claimed that other human groups, but was only a prophet, not God. Mary is called Mother of God to make it clear, Jesus is Jesus is God and man.
I have seen on television was thrown out of his blood ***!!!
Now that is a good question. I stuck around for the answer.
Catholics deny Mary Worship.
Despite the fact that their churches are full of icons and idols Mary and pray with her, to deny that the cult.
Mary was a virgin when Jesus was born.
Later, she had children by Joseph.
Mary lost her virginity to Joseph and Jesus had younger half brothers.
I do not understand why Catholics are so special …. the only difference between her and someone else is what he did ….. she can not respond to requests from anyone …… and as far as I know …. no prophecies about her …..
Have you ever read the Bible? Are you a Christian priest or anyway.ask his minister of a simple passage from the Bible if it is truly the mother of god. example? Mary is the Mother of God. if he (the minister stupid) cannot read a single verse or paragraph in the Bible about the true nature of Mary as the Mother of God, you shoot!
Rom 8:15 For you have not received the spirit of bondage again in fear, but you received the spirit of adoption as sons, we cry: Abba (Father).
St. Paul tells us above, we become adopted sons (children) of God in Christ.
This will cause our brother Jesus, for adoption.
This would make our mother Mary, and by adoption.
The 4th commandment requires that we honor our father and our mother.
Case closed!
Amen. I really do not understand why Catholics pray to Mary. I am not trying to insult the Catholic denomination, I do not understand. In John 14:6 Jesus answerd, "I am the way and the truth and the life. The only way the Father is through me. " Jesus said many times to ask his name. I can not find anywhere in the Bible that we should pray to Mary or the saints.
Simple living not understand the human species on planet earth.
Means that the Virgin was a virgin before she got married.
Living humans do not practice what they preach on the planet Earth.
Observe how all ended up with a used car with porno films to expose the nakedness of our own parents on the planet Earth.
Enbarassing How can you live in the human species with its own rudeness and lack of free knowledge on the planet Earth.
Breaking the golden rules of our creator constituition universal and universal laws on the planet Earth.
Observe how our creator comes after the human species living with the punishment and destruction of human error with extra ordinary power from the earth, wind, fire, water and pest own backyards on Earth.
The Virgin Mary is an example of faith in the way of saying yes to what God asks of us. What they asked was not easy, but she put her faith in God first.
It is natural that women of faith to become an example.
So what about the Virgin Mary? What do you know about the "math" of God. In fact, it was the mother of Jesus. But since you can not explain, which is not very important.
Only the Catholics believe in the divine power of Mary. Why, I do not know.
If it was so important, then Jesus, when he was dying on the cross, would not have had to put their attention into the hands of one of his beloved disciples.
Mary is a very important role in the life of Christ, but she has no "miraculous powers" and were not told us to pray with her.
I'm not sure what you're getting here, but if you're not Catholic, do not worry about that. Does every post in the end!
5. The Church of the New Testament about Mary
The great witness of Scripture to Mary and her role in the scheme of salvation is echoed and amplified by the New Testament Church. As the early Christians lived and preached the gospel was made clear that to understand and present the Christian message to be made what they believed in the doctrines clear. From the beginning it was assumed that this formulation of the doctrine would not only Jesus but Mary. In the old debates about the doctrine affirming scriptural Mary exalted role and became a mark of orthodoxy titles and historical adherence to the faith (which, for example, Chalcedon). In addition, Marian doctrines can rightly be called because the Christological doctrine to dig deeper into Mary, the more we learn about Christ.
In short, the Marian doctrine arose historically one of the following:
or write: As we have seen, no other individual has been so exalted and consistently in Scripture as Mary. Cana even some have misinterpreted as a reprimand, ending with the realization of what Jesus asked Mary to him - although his hour had not yet reached http://www.mariology.com/sections/NewTes … ……
Here is a link if you want to read the rest of it.
Mary needed no prophecies about it. Religion has nothing to do with it. Do not listen to the prophecies about Noah or Moses, or John the Baptist. The New Testament was about Jesus' teachings and nobody else.
Veneration of the Virgin Mary Catholic dogma is pure and nothing else. Known as Mariolatary or Maryolatory.
that is the Virgin Mary? just another name until someone did!
Catholicism is the highest level of direct disobedience to the Scriptures, so that Mary worship should not be surprising.
Also, your dress attire in certain clergy contrary to the instructions of Jesus.
They have a lot of idols (statues) in their churches against the Bible saying that God hates these things.
If it was through the Bible and wrote all the things God has said is repugnant to him, is most of them on display in the Catholic religion.
Most of what is now Catholic was initiated by the Roman Emperor Constantine in the 4th century. In its quest for absolute power over the people who banned all other religions, but incorporated nearly all pagan rites, rituals, holy days, icons (including crosses, steeples, statues etc) were all those linked to ancient pagan sex cult. It is very bad the way that Christianity has been corrupted in a nasty ugly thing.
Catholics believe that Christ will come again, and not Mary. She is now so adorned because she was the mother of Jesus Christ, and Christ is God, so she is the Mother of God. She agreed to give birth to Jesus, allowing his coming if possible. That's why we appreciate their Catholic faith. As for the New Testament is not stated, is not a sort of window, and that mainly revolves around the teachings of Christ. Moreover, reading about Mary in the Bible, one might assume that its role in our religious history was very important.
