I don't have a hard time at all distinguishing between honor for my husband ---for instance --- or honor for Abraham, Moses, Mary --- and the far greater, infinitely greater act which is adoration of God.

Well, if you truly want to know the Biblical basis for the things Dr. Taylor Marshall is talking about in this article, you're going to need more than a short, simple article like this to do justice to your question, so I would suggest as a starting point you read these books (as well as any books by Dr. Scott Hahn you can get your hands on).

I am 69 and have never had boiled peanuts. We even grew them when I was young. A friend of mine was going through Plains,GA and stopped at a small store. Jimmy was in there and my friend said he was a nice fellow. Who knows? You are funny!
I just didn’t complete the phrase, that’s all. In spoken conversation, I rarely do.
One can find no less than The Lord Jesus consistently referring to Scripture as authoritative. One can also find Satan, twisting it (to his and his hearers’ destruction).
The Spirit-breathed Word is how you know what communion is and is not; who Mary is and is not; who saints and priests are and are not; what the church is and is not.
Thank you for the references, but Scripture is sufficient for instruction. The apostle Paul said so. So did Peter (”as newborn babes crave the sincere milk of the word, that by it you may grow in respect to salvation”).
So with your logic, I should not be listening at all to your own words here about these matters, since your own words in your first post in this thread, and your own words in the first half of your post here are not contained in "Scripture", but are your own words.
Likewise (according to your logic), I should never listen to any preachers "expounding on the Word", since their own words are also not contained in Scripture.
Do you see how illogical that kind of reasoning is? If you really, truly think it is wrong to add any words to Scripture, then why did you add your own words to the Scripture, right here in these two posts you made using your own words?
You got all that from the few words I posted? Note that the words were true: Jesus, Paul, Peter, et. al testified to the authority of Scripture. Reading, mulling over, savoring the Spirit-breathed Word is how one can “test the spirits, to see if they are from God” (I John). That’s something YOU, believer, are supposed to do. This discipline cannot be subcontracted.
I admit that my first post was a jab. There are many Catholic doctrines that are simply made up (and repeated ad infinitum on this forum). There is ZERO evidence for them in Scripture.
But Protestants that live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones! LOL. I’ve seen the same in various churches I’ve been in. And in my own life!
