"...and for the love of Him she advocates for us...". Prove it, Scripturally. Or show me where you got this idea. Book, chapter, page, author. It had to be from some anti-protestant source. Because we all know that if one isn't Catholic he MUST be anti-Catholic. The opposite must also be true. If one isn't Protestant, he MUST be anti-Protestant. Which means that all websites you gleen your pro-Catholic information from MUST be anti-Protestant bigots. Right?

You took 1 John 2:1 that spoke exclusively of Jesus Christ as our advocate with the Father, and "ergo-ed" Mary into the Scripture because of her love of Him, she is an advocate for us. You most certainly DID add to 1 John 2:1. With your own words. God tells us who the advocate is, and you add Mary as another advocate. That friend, is adding to God's Word.

Prove to me that Matthew wrote a gospel - using scripture alone. Can you? Yet I don’t doubt that you firmly believe that he did write a gospel. How do you know that then?

“Or show me where you got this idea. Book, chapter, page, author.”

Show me EXACTLY where you got your belief that Matthew wrote a gospel: Book, chapter, page, author.

“It had to be from some anti-protestant source.”

What?

“Because we all know that if one isn’t Catholic he MUST be anti-Catholic.”

Who said that? Not me.

“The opposite must also be true. If one isn’t Protestant, he MUST be anti-Protestant.”

And who here believes that too?

“Which means that all websites you gleen your pro-Catholic information from MUST be anti-Protestant bigots. Right?”

Nope.

“You took 1 John 2:1 that spoke exclusively of Jesus Christ as our advocate with the Father, and “ergo-ed” Mary into the Scripture because of her love of Him, she is an advocate for us. You most certainly DID add to 1 John 2:1.”

Nope. You can keep saying it but you have yet to offer any evidence I did that. And you will continue to fail in that regard too.

“With your own words. God tells us who the advocate is, and you add Mary as another advocate. That friend, is adding to God’s Word.”

Mary serves Christ. That simply cannot be (rationally) denied.
