“God told us it was He that would be above the mercy seat NOT Mary.”
And He was. But the Mercy Seat is no longer seen. This is merely an art work more than 3,000 years later - and it still shows God above the Mercy Seat - in the Eucharist.
“Catholics put Mary there instead.”
Not instead. God is there - in the Eucharist.
“You said so yourself.”
No, I did not. I said IN EXACTLY THE POST YOU ARE RESPONDING TO:
- “Mary - as the New Ark of the Covenant - has God within her as is shown with the Eucharist in Mary’s womb.
- “Thus, God is manifested above the Mercy Seat if anyone is in a way similar to a pillar of smoke.”
And even in the previous post you erroneously said:
“Like I said. Catholics put Mary in the place of God.”
And I corrected you: “Like I said, God is there (the Eucharist).”
Eucharist (n.) Look up Eucharist at Dictionary.com "sacrament of the Lord's Supper, the Communion," mid-14c., from Old French eucariste, from Late Latin eucharistia, from Greek eukharistia "thanksgiving, gratitude," later "the Lord's Supper," from eukharistos "grateful," from eu "well" (see eu-) + stem of kharizesthai "show favor," from kharis "favor, grace," from PIE root *gher- (5) "to like, want" (see hortatory). Eukharisteo is the usual verb for "to thank, to be thankful" in the Septuagint and Greek New Testament. Related: Eucharistic.
