THECROSS, I appreciate your answer! And I do not think that you are a 'smart such and such'.. I am glad that you are on the Study Bible Forum! I have just read Ezekiel 44:1-10 in the New American Standard Bible and I find absolutely no mention or reference at all to Mary, the mother of Jesus. I'm sorry, THECROSS, but you are just going to have to show me exactly where in the Bible that Mary is 'shown' to be more than just a woman of God. Otherwise, I do not agree with you about Mary being 'the Ark of the new covenant.' I agree with you that Jesus is the 'new Adam' because the Bible says so in 1 Corinthians 15:45. And 1 Corinthians 15:22 tells me this also. But THECROSS, where in the Bible does it say that Mary is anything more than a God fearing woman who gave birth to the Man, Jesus Christ? Mary may have given birth to Jesus, who was the fullness of God in bodily form, and Mary was the 'vessel' that God used to deliver His Son to this earth, but Mary did not 'give birth' to God. For God has no beginning and no end! (Revelation 22:13) And how could Mary be the mother of God if God has existed forever? Jesus Christ has always existed, even before the foundation of the earth! (John 17:24, Hebrews 13:8) So was Mary really the 'mother of God'? Or was she just a willing servant of God whom God used to 'introduce' His one and only Son into this world? THECROSS, I am not trying to put you on the spot here. I humbly ask you to please show me in Scripture with Bible Verses where it 'proves' that Mary is anything more than just a humble servant of God. You also said, "man that was at the foot of the cross" and this brings me to John 19:26-27 where Jesus says, "Woman, behold, your son!" and to the 'man', "Behold, your mother!" If you were referring to these passages, where Mary, the mother of Jesus, is standing at the foot of the cross with John, His disciple, then please show me where it says here that Mary is anything more than just a woman of God. THECROSS, I ask you humbly, and not as a request! God bless! Nolan |

my friend nolan,are you saying that jesus is not God,the first ark of the covenant held,the symbol of the high priest,the Rod of Aaron.It held the Manna,the Bread come down from Heaven. Hebrews 9:4 It was made of incorruptible wood. And thou shalt make the ark of testimony of incorruptible wood. Exodus 25:10,Septuagint.The Ark of the new covenant carried, the Word of God Incarnate.She carried the High Priest Of GOD.She carried the Bread come down from Heaven.Luke 2:7. And the temple of GOD in Heaven was opened,and there was seen the Ark of his covenant,in his Temple,and there came flashes of lightning,and peals of thunder,and an earthquake,and great hail.and a great sign appeared in heaven:A woman clothed with the sun,and the moon was under her feet,and upon her head a Crown Of Twelve Stars. Rev 11:19 12:1. the old testament Ark of the covenant was a type of the Antitype reality being the Blessed Virgin Mary.The Ark as seen in Heaven is not the old testament wooden box.It is the Blessed Virgin Mary.they will call me blessed,you can find this in the new testament ok.the new testament lies hidden in the Old.the Old testament is Fulfilled in the new.The Blessed Virgin Mary lies hidden in the Old ,and she is revealed in the New testament.check 1Kings 2:12-20.Who is the King in the New Testament,of the seed of Davidof the seed of Solomon,Jesus Christ is,Matt 2:2,John 18:33-37,Who is the mother of Jesus Christ,Mary is,Luke 2:7. Jesus is King of Kings,Rev 19:16 the King of Heaven and earth.Mary His mother is the Queen of Heaven and earth.Jeremiah 31:22,For the Lord Has created a new thing upon the earth,a woman shall compass a man. Elucidation:1.What new thing has the lord created?2.The woman in Question will bring forth a savior,a one of a kind.ok an there is more,Isaiah 7:14 and Luke 1:34,37-38,Elucidation: 1. A sign as stated in Isaiah is interpreted as an unusual event.2.A virgin conceiving,as in luke,is a very unusualevent.It is the SIGN.3.Mary ,in perfect opbedience to the lord,gave her consent.SONGS 4:12 read it. Ezekiel 44:2-3.Wisdom 9:5,Judith 11:5-6,and 12:4 Handmaid is mentioned only once in the N.T.in luke 1:38,Ezekial confirms Isaiahs prophesy, and those verses also refer to her perpetual virginity.Exodus 2:5, Moses,who prefigures Christ,is rescued by a handmaid.Later all of israel is rescued by Moses.Luke 1:43,And how have I deserved that the mother of my LORD should come to me.why did John lept in his mother womb,becouse he new that GOD was in the womb of his mother.ok and if you want more i have a lot more Nolan my brother in Christ,God bless | ||||||

Dear THECROSS, I believe in God the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, and in His one and only Son, Jesus Christ, who was sent by His Father to die for our sins and He rose on the third day after His crucifixion. I believe in the virgin birth and that Jesus was the Christ, the Messiah, who came to save that which was lost. I believe in the Holy Spirit, He who was sent to comfort and to reveal the truth and light, to baptize and to seal us with God's seal. I believe that Jesus will return one day to receive us all unto Himself, but no man knows the day.. After reading all of the Scriptures that you mentioned (except the Apocryphal books Wisdom and Judith, since I do not consider those as 'canon'), you have explained much better why you believe that Mary, the mother of Jesus, is the 'Ark of the Covenant', but I still do not agree with you that this is so. Hebrews 9:4 never states that the Ark of the Covenant was made of 'incorruptible wood'. Exodus 25:10 does not say this either! So if you are saying that the Ark was made of 'incorruptible wood', then either you are basing these assumptions on your own conclusions (which one cannot come to just by reading the text), or on the conclusions of a long standing tradition that does not prove to be 'supported' by Scripture here. All things must be supported by Scripture. If we begin to believe in tradition rather than Scripture, then we are taking our focus off of God's Holy Word, and putting our 'faith' in man's tradition, which is full of flaws, and God's Word is flawless (Psalm 12:6-7). I now see where you make the connection between Mary having the 'midden manna' of Jesus Christ and giving birth to Him, thus making her the new "Ark of the Covenant" and the "Queen of God", but this is nowhere to be supported in Scripture! Is it only coincidence that none of the Biblical writers ever even alluded to the same thing that you are talking about? Yes, all generations will call Mary 'blessed', since she was in a sense, the hand-maiden of God. However, Mary is in no way equal with God, nor does she have any characteristics of the Deity. If you read in Luke 2:34-35, does not Simeon say to Mary, "and a sword will pierce even your own soul"?? If this is so, then in what way is Mary shown to be Deity, since she will also be convicted of her sins? We should not call Mary, the mother of Jesus, 'blessed' to the point of worshipping her! This would be idolatry, and something that is not even acceptable to angels (Rev. 19:10; 22:8-9)! Mary was a servant of God as we are. In no way has she been placed as a "Goddess" over mankind. Not only does this teach polytheism but it is not Scriptural and is actually contrary to the teachings of the Bible. More to come, THECROSS.. Nolan |
