“What errors? You found no errors.”

That’s another error of yours right there. Go back and check the posts.

“The miracle at Cana shows that the Lord can answer prayer for the small things (like wine at a wedding,”

Ooooohhhh, you mean He responded to Mary’s intercession? You’re the one who just called her plea to Jesus about the wine a “prayer”.

Case closed. With that stunning comment of yours you render the rest of your post meaningless.

**Case closed. With that stunning comment of yours you render the rest of your post meaningless.**

Am I surprised of another classy statement, designed to avoid answering questions? Just like the one sided argument about whether you worship Allah or not. You seem to demand to ask the questions, but not answer any. The little or no use of scripture is always to your disadvantage. Yet, you appear to insist on maintaining that procedure.

**Ooooohhhh, you mean He responded to Mary’s intercession? You’re the one who just called her plea to Jesus about the wine a “prayer”.**

Call it intercession, or a request, or a panic attack, or whatever you want, I’m convinced that (since neither of us were present) neither of us REALLY know. She witnessed the situation to the ONE who ALREADY knew the situation. She had NO IDEA how Jesus would handle it. He RESPONDED to the NEED of them ALL. Just like the loaves and the fishes, I believe that Jesus made enough that there was wine for everybody, and some left over.

Yes, that is my presumption, Just like yours of painting the scenario in such a way that Mary was ONLY concerned for keeping the wedding hosts from losing face. And from that basis, even today you pray to her (A LOT!), who is asleep in Christ, and give her titles that are not at all scriptural.

Jesus’ response to her was well worded, as he knew in the future, goddess worshippering people would be elevating Mary in a mix of Christianity and paganism.

His properly worded reply to her (would you say it wasn’t?) was not much more respectful than the one he made to the woman of Canaan (Matt. 15:21-28. By the way, do you pray to the ‘woman from Canaan’?). The reason is this: God is no respecter of persons.

To Mary: “Woman, what have I to do with thee? Mine hour is not yet come.”
To the woman from Canaan: “I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel”. Matt. 15:24

**That’s another error of yours right there. Go back and check the posts.**

List them. USE scripture to prove your judgement. Otherwise you are just making presumptions and unsubstantiated claims.

(now switching gears)

HE IS RISEN!!!! PRAISE GOD!!!!
