Subject: Why should we pray to Mary? |
Bible Note: "Catholics spend too much time in church, too much time in prayer, stress sacraments too much, spend too much time doing good works. Which makes us sound like we're preparing for the biblical equivalent of the eco-challenge. HAhahaha!" "Then they say - all you need is Jesus." "Then the same people want to come along and say Mary distracts us. So which is it? We're doing too much or too little?" I think the point people are trying to make is you do too much that doesn't make a difference instead of focusing on what does. :) Lisa, maybe you aren't lost but there are sooooo many Cath who are, I used to be one, my whole family was too. If you aren't told the plan of salvation the way the Bible lays it out, how are you supposed to know??? You can spend all your time in church, take sacraments, do good works, be an exemplerory person, pray to every saint and Mary for intercession, live on your knees, but if you don't personally know Jesus, it's a waste of time, you're still going to hell. That's the point I believe. |
