1 | Is Catholic considered false religion? | Matt 15:6 | Emmaus | 71638 | ||
calmrage, I will leave any comments on Mormonism or what some pastors may or may not think or say to others who may know more about it than me. I will try to address what I am familiar with. One reason Catholics call Mary holy is because she is called "full of grace" or "highly favored one" in Luke 1:28" and blessed among women in Luke 1:42, 48. Generally Catholics call her the Blessed Mother. Since that is scriptural. We wonder why some other christinas do not do the same. "Hail, full of grace!" Luke 1:28 "And she cried out with a loud voice and said, blessed are you among women," Luke 1:42 "all generations will call me blessed." Luke 1:48 As for worshiping statutes and images as idols- catholics no more worship than than Americans worship stautes of Washington and Lincoln and other heros that we see all over this country. They are eminders of the people they represent. Have you every seen and illustrated childrens bible or any other picture of Jesus in a Protestant context? Do you consider them idols?

2 | Praying Rosary to Washington/ | Matt 15:6 | jlpangilinan | 71682 | ||
Emmaus, Quote"As for worshiping statutes and images as idols- catholics no more worship than than Americans worship stautes of Washington and Lincoln and other heros that we see all over this country. They are eminders of the people they represent. Have you every seen and illustrated childrens bible or any other picture of Jesus in a Protestant context? Do you consider them idols?" Answer; Emmaus did you see anyone thier in the U.S. worshiping the statue of Washington? Are they really pray rosary into that statue? Are they recite prayers and say "pray for us sinner now and the our of our death AMEN" did your american people done this things to that statue or the statue of liberty? When God prohibit idols, He include guidance why it was an idolatry: Ex 20:4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: Ex 20:5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; There are makers of images of michael jordan and other famous persons, I am sure it is not sin. But if start serving thier idols bow on them and praying for them, then the idolatry comes in. God bless, Johnny |
