From what I've read, Scripture doesn't record all that Jesus did while he walked the Earth.
Are we to assume He only did the things that were recorded and nothing else? Did His miracles cease with His death?
If Jesus begins His with 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment' and #5 from the Big 10 is to honor your mother and your father, what of Jesus' mother?
How would He honor her? What would He and the Father convey upon her? Is her part in our story over or does she still have things to do? Does she have anything to do with the two witnesses of Revelation?
For me, I don't have any real trouble thinking she is what is said of her and her task is as I wrote.
It's easy for me to believe in an unlimited, all powerful Triune God, so all I've read about Mary is not a leap of faith for me, but is rather easy to understand as a part of the Grand Plan.
If I'm wrong, I'm still waiting for the experts' answer regarding my fate.
But if I'm right, what of those who get it wrong and work so hard against? How would God, whose ways are not our ways, view this? Are there consequences? Still waiting on that answer as well.
Thanks anyway.
Well, yeah.
Are we to assume He only did the things that were recorded and nothing else? Did His miracles cease with His death?
No and no.
If there are other things that Jesus did and taught, then feel free to tell us what they are and where they're recorded to verify them.
What I don't accept is people making stuff up and claiming that Jesus taught it simply because the Bible doesn't say it DIDN'T happen.
Anything not explicitly spelled out in Scripture is not binding on the believer to accept as truth.
Mary is not MY mother. She was Jesus' mother. It was HIS responsibility to obey her, not mine.
I am obligated to obey MY own mother, not everyone or anyone else's mother.
She's not even alive on this planet, God never put her in a position to be honored, nor commanded us to.
Matter of fact, the Holy spirit in James tells us not to be a respecter of person's as it is a sin.
So this FACT allows ROME to make up all KINDS of crazy stuff that is not found in the bible.
Why don't you ask HIM?
Our 'opinions' will NEVER satisfy you; will they?
Even the things I'VE said?
