Just said a little prayer for the author of this.
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my mother; to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me.
Amen.
Je vous salue, Marie,
pleine de grâce:
le Seigneur est avec vous;
vous êtes bénie entre toutes les femmes,
et Jésus, le fruit de vos entrailles,
est béni.
Sainte Marie, Mère de Dieu,
priez pour nous, pauvres pécheurs,
maintenant et à l’heure de notre mort.
Amen.
We are in much more trouble with our Hussein Obama the Great Wonderful and Merciful Messiah worship than anything in Catholicism.
Lord a’Mighty, let’s get our priorities straight.
For me a larger question is why do they do it. It can’t in any way profit them. Perhaps they demonize the Blessed Mother to assuage whatever hidden doubts they have over the particular heresy to which they prescribe.
I can only suggest this:
Deprive yourself of the Blessed Sacraments, pridefully—sneer at them even—and then see what happens to your soul.
Not accurate at all...Check the scriptures...Satan and his minions are VERY religious...
Isn’t it amazing how much some of these possible brothers & sisters need the idolotrous trappings of Rome?
Is that really going to be your “only” suggestion?
Answering the call of the anti-Catholic siren song?
Here is a story to illustrate our honoring of Mary and the power of her intercession for us.
In the days of Kings and Queens, there lived a farmer who owned an orchard. He was so greatful for the bountiful harvest that his orchard produced, that he wanted to share it with the King. Before the farmer headed to the castle he went into his orchard and picked some apples off of the trees. He paid little attention to the dirt and dust on them and just headed on. When he reached the castle, he told the guards that he had a gift for the King. The guards let him pass and he walked along the long pathway up to the Kings chair. When the farmer offered the apples to the King, the King looked at the dirty and dusty apples and refused the gift. As the farmer turned to walk away, he had not noticed the Queen in an upper window who saw all that had just happened. Well, the Queen ran down to the farmer and said let me see your apples. She took them back in the room from where she came and then washed and polished the apples until they were a glorious shining red, then put them on a gold plate. She handed the plate to the farmer and said let us return to the King. When they reached the King, he saw how beautiful the apples were and accepted the gift.
This is what Mary does. When we ask Mary to pray for us or
ask for her intercession, She too, takes our prayers and requests, shines and polishes them, then presents them to the King.
I was quite stunned, shocked to read this blasphemy:
Benedict XVI is also reported as praying to her, “If you will not help us because we are ungrateful and unworthy children of your protection, we will not know to whom to turn.”
Did you ever sacrifice to your wife? I suppose you must have, if you ever gave her a rose!
I came by to see you.
How creepy.
Your right. Look at Bob Jones.
Or check out the shiny suit crowd on cable tv.
Sure it does ... it makes them feel better about themselves. They cannot define themselves, except by trashing other folks.
Meantime, protestantism can't seem to figure out the euthanasia is very, very wrong.
Any "faith tradition" that has to "struggle" over the "question" of euthanasia is unGodly in the extreme.
Blessed art thou among women, and
Blessed is the fruit of thy womb...
Catholicism has right there the key reason no Christian can support candidates who are pro-abortion... If the Democrat Party Platform had its way, a young teen mother pregnant without explanation would have been rushed to Planned Parenthood for a quick abortion, no questions asked. Ergo, no Jesus.
And don't anyone start with that "it's pro-choice not pro-abortion" crap, because I've never seen a "pro-choice" person support the "choice" we make to be "pro-life".
But, why do you keep writing to me then?
