Your comments: “Roman Catholics worship Mary.
She is not the “Mother of God”.
Just other erroneous opinions of a protestor that does not believe in the words Of Jesus: “Jesus said to them, “Amen, amen, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you do not have life within you. 54Whoever eats* my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him on the last day.
55For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. 56Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me and I in him. 57Just as the living Father sent me and I have life because of the Father, so also the one who feeds on me will have life because of me.b (John 6.
“And the glory which thou hast given me, I have given to them—I in them and thou in me” (John, xvii, 22, 23). As Jesus has adopted His true believers so we inherit His Mother as Our Mother.
A woman is a man’s mother either if she carried him in her womb or if she was the woman contributing half of his genetic matter or both. Mary was the mother of Jesus in both of these senses; because she not only carried Jesus in her womb but also supplied all of the genetic matter for his human body, since it was through her—not Joseph—that Jesus “was descended from David according to the flesh” (Rom. 1:3).
We say that she is the Mother of God in the sense that she carried in her womb a divine person—Jesus Christ, God “in the flesh” (2 John 7, cf. John 1:14)—and in the sense that she contributed the genetic matter to the human form God took in Jesus Christ.
May God help you find and understand the Truth.
Good grief...what an abuse of the Scripture to justify your point.
But for context....
22“The glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, just as We are one; 23I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected in unity, so that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them, even as You have loved Me. 24“Father, I desire that they also, whom You have given Me, be with Me where I am, so that they may see My glory which You have given Me, for You loved Me before the foundation of the world.
John 17:22-24 NASB
There is nothing in the text to suggest what you indicate.
Just other erroneous opinions of a protestor that does not believe in the words Of Jesus: “Jesus said to them, “Amen, amen, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you do not have life within you. 54Whoever eats* my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him on the last day.
Have you cut your hand off....or gouged out your eye....or sold all of your possessions?
Context, ADSUM, context is your friend in understanding the New Testament.
26Jesus answered them and said, “Truly, truly, I say to you, you seek Me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate of the loaves and were filled. 27“Do not work for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give to you, for on Him the Father, God, has set His seal.”
28Therefore they said to Him, “What shall we do, so that we may work the works of God?”
29Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He has sent.” John 6:26-29 NASB
When He concluded His discussion with the unbelieving Jews He turned to those who did believe and asked if they wanted to go away also...pay attention to their answer. They indicated they believed....not that they had eaten the flesh and blood.
66As a result of this many of His disciples withdrew and were not walking with Him anymore.
67So Jesus said to the twelve, “You do not want to go away also, do you?”
68Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have words of eternal life.
69“We have believed and have come to know that You are the Holy One of God.”
Ignore him. He’s nothing but a troll that lives to stir up crap and degrade Catholics, and has nothing better to do with his life. This is to say nothing of the fact that he hates his brothers and sisters in Christ.
