Take special note of the first and second commandments. Done. No Catholic worships Mary, so can you explain the point of this? Also Revelation 22:18-19 "For I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds to these things, God will add to him the plagues that are written in this book: and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the Book of Life, from the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book." Have we added to the book of Revelation? Read Revelation 17. The woman is the one-world religion consisting of apostate churches, headed up by the False Prophet. Are you suggesting Mary is the woman of the one-world religion? Either way, reread Revelation 12:1-13. Especially verse 13. Who is the woman, and who here is persecuting her? I only tell you this out of love, for I would hate to see anyone who hopefully loves Jesus Christ foremost, be lost for bowing down to false idols, and who risks being deceived by the antichrist. Who is this antichrist?God bless, patent +AMDG |
