Subject: "am I wrong in thinking that you pray to |
Bible Note: Emmaus, I'm confused about this business of praying "to" Mary, or "with" Mary. In the "Hail Mary" (Ave Maria) Mary is clearly the addressee, isn't she? And it IS a prayer, isn't it? Moreover, since Jesus himself is our advocate (1 John 2:1 and intercessor (Hebrews 7:25) with the Father, why do we need Mary? Isn't Jesus good enough? --Hank |
