Bible Note: Dear John, I do not see Jesus "commending" the human race as a whole to care for Mary either. There may be a difference in the words "command" and "commend", but my response would be the same in either case: That Jesus is neither 'commending' or 'commanding' the human race to care for or acknowledge or exalt Mary in any way at all. Never does Jesus lead us to believe that Mary should be viewed as anything more than the Godly woman that she was. You have stated, "On praying, didn't Jesus say that "no one comes to the Father except through Me?" Did He not mean that there should be no by-passing in the hierarchy?" I most definitely agree, my Catholic friend! And again, thank you for asking. Your Brother in Christ, Nolan |
