This is an almost 20 minute talk by Fr. Ignatius at a Day With Mary.
Devotion to Our Lady leads to an increased devotion and love for Jesus in the most Blessed Sacrament.

The approved apparitions of Fatima and Akita are connected. They emphasize the importance not only of devotions but also the need for penance and reparation and the consequences of sin that will lead to chastisement. Our Lady lets us know the importance of the Rosary.
Let us listen to Our Mother.
Where in the bible does it say to pray or worship “Our Lady”
It’s God or nothing folks.
Even jesus said so.
Jesus said “I am the way and the light”. I believe him.
Show me where Jesus said “Worhip Me” instead of God.
Let me put it this way: If you had a friend and this person did not like your mother, would you invite that person home for dinner?
The same goes for Mary, the mother of Jesus. Jesus loves her, and as catholics, we honor her. If you weren’t brought up a catholic, it is not something you could understand by posting on a chat board. It goes much deeper than that with us.
**Jesus said “I am the way and the light”. I believe him.**
So do Catholics. Now stop bashing Catholics!
BTW, Catholics do not worship Mary. We worship only the Triune God.
We venerate Mary and ask her for favors. Yes, we ask her Son, too!
Please educate yourselves before you bash Catholics.
“We venerate Mary and ask for her favors”>>>
I pray to God and finish my prayer by saying In Jesus name. I don’t pray to Mary.
I agree Salvation.
Even the “Queen of Heaven” bows down to the King.
I pay my respects to the “queen” for she has access to the king and her influence is mighty.
"Never apologize for the Blessed Virgin Mary!"
~~Mother Angelica
Those who deny the Mother of God will be denied by Christ at the moment of their death/Particular judgment. Something for everyone to think about!
