What I also saw before walking down the road towards Rome was the similarities between the miraculous conception prophecies of Abraham & Sarah and Zechariah with Sarah laughing at the possibility and Zechariah asking for proof vs Mary’s confused question of “How will this be since I am a virgin?” and her humble “Behold the Lord’s bond-servant; let it be according to your word.” This struck me so hard as an evangelical that I thought to myself “Now I get why Catholics think so highly of Mary.” About ten years later I received first Eucharist and was confirmed as I entered into communion with the Catholic Church at Easter Vigil 2019. Great video!
Praise God! So many non-Catholics have come home and let us know right here on our channel! We are so glad to hear about all of you and thank the Lord for His goodness. Thanks for the comments and God bless!
Thanks for the catechism bro, because a few years ago, my cousin who is a protestant pastor asked me and criticized me about immaculate conception and I can't give a good answer that time. But with your video and my mother's catechism, I learned about it now
I don’t think I can remember all that in order but I’ll watch a few times and try to remember as much as I can. ☺️. You are truly blessed with this amazing knowledge and thank you for sharing it with all of us Catholics.
In India today is 8th December 2021 and we are celebrating the Feast of Immaculate Conception in our local community Church because our Church is name after Immaculate Conception. of Mary. Happy Immaculate Conception Feast to all here! .
Good content, but your voice is is strained, harsh, tense. Slow it down a little and let your voice soften which will make your message more appealing.
In the old testament scripture there were men who was taken up into heaven, Enoch & Elijah. It's God's choice and His will. Genesis 5:21-24 (KJV) And Enoch lived sixty and five years, and begat Methuselah: And Enoch walked with God after he begat Methuselah three hundred years, and begat sons and daughters: And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty and five years: And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him. 2 Kings 2 (KJV) And it came to pass, when the Lord would take up Elijah into heaven by a whirlwind, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal. And yet, when we talk about Mary suddenly it becomes blasphemous? In the New Testament, the new Ark is not an inanimate object, but a person: Mary. How much more pure would the new Ark be when we consider the old ark was a mere “shadow” in relation to it (see Heb. 10:1)? This image of Mary as the Ark of the Covenant is an indicator that Mary would fittingly be free from all contagion of sin to be a worthy vessel to bear God in her womb. And most importantly, just as the Old Covenant Ark was pristine from the moment it was constructed with explicit divine instructions in Exodus 25, so would Mary be pure from the moment of her conception. God, in a sense, prepared his own dwelling place in both the Old and New Testaments. The Ark of the Covenant contained three “types” of Jesus inside: manna, Aaron’s rod, and the Ten Commandments. In Hebrew, commandment (dabar) can be translated “word.” Compare: Mary carried the fulfillment of all these types in her body. Jesus is the “true [manna] from heaven” (John 6:32), the true “High Priest” (Heb. 3:1), and “the word made flesh” (John 1:14). The glory cloud (Hebrew Anan) was representative of the Holy Spirit, and it “overshadowed” the Ark when Moses consecrated it in Ex. 40:32-33. The Greek word for “overshadow” found in the Septuagint is a form of episkiasei. Compare: “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will be called holy, the Son of God” (Luke 1:35). The Greek word for “overshadow” is episkiasei. David “leapt and danced” before the Ark when it was being carried into Jerusalem in procession in 2 Sam. 6:14-16. Compare: As soon as Elizabeth heard the sound of Mary’s salutation, John the Baptist “leaped for joy” in her womb (cf. Luke 1:41-44). After a manifestation of the power of God working through the Ark, David exclaims, “How can the Ark of the Lord come unto me?” Compare: After the revelation to Elizabeth about the true calling of Mary, who was carrying God in her womb, Elizabeth exclaims, “Why is this granted me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?” (Luke 1:43) The Ark of the Lord “remained in the house of Obededom . . . three months” in 2 Sam. 6:11. Compare: “Mary remained with [Elizabeth] for about three months” (Luke 1:56). Mary was chosen by GOD Himself, it's His choice and His will. Luke 1:28-30 (KJV) And the angel came in unto her, and said, HAIL, THOU THAT ART HIGHLY FAVOURED, THE LORD IS WITH THEE: blessed art thou among women. And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be. And the angel said unto her, FEAR NOT, MARY: FOR THOU HAST FOUND FAVOUR WITH GOD.
Thank you Bryan, such a wonderful explanation and defending to our Blessed Virgin Mary with a humble heart😊Merry Christmas in advance,may God bless you more abundantly 🙏sending my greetings and prayers from Dubai,😇😇,
@Catholictruth, how do you get thru sharing this story without squalling like a baby? So beautiful, this story. I cry listening to you teach this! Thank you my friend, for sharing your passion with us!! 💜🙏🏼💜✝️💜🙏🏼💜
Gracias , thank you so much. Great explanation and if you aloud me I would like to add what Father Carlos Cancelado said: “imagine Genesis 3,15 as a war between the gentle girl and the beast” in what side are you or in what side do you want to be?
@@CatholicTruthOfficial fine, but you need to have some solid theological evidence found in the Bible or elsewhere to argue this point, it's not enough at this stage to just claim "people believed it", people believe in horoscopes but we know they are fake.
The title is Co-redemptrix. It's a Latin word that does _not_ mean coredeemer but rather "A woman with the Redeemer" showing how Mary participated with Christ in bringing salvation into the world. She said yes to God, and so salvation came in Christ through her womb. It's not an official title of the Catholic Church. But we have a video on this if you are interested. ruclips.net/video/eyx-K8qWOPI/видео.html
Luke 1:46-47 "And Mary said, My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior. What does Mary need to be saved from if She has no sin? Why does She need a Savior? A Savior from what? Romans 3:23 "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" So the answer here is "all" doesn't mean "all"? This sounds like President Clinton in Court. So Mary is excluded from the "all" here? Who else is excluded from the "all" I'm sorry just struggling with this. So when Paul writes "for all have sinned and fall short of the Glory of God", what he means is there is a group of people somewhere who have not sinned? Mary is part of that group?
@@donhaddix3770 That statement makes sense to me, Mary had a human father, therefore Sin nature. Jesus is both fully God and Fully Human. Mary is the mother of the Human part of Jesus so I think She deserves much respect. She was chosen by God to do this. However and I may be wrong, but my issue is that it was Jesus who created Mary, No? Jesus existed before his incarnation, Jesus existed before Mary and is Mary's creator, God and Savior, just as She herself states in Luke 1:46-47. Jesus said, Before Abraham was, I AM. It seems to me, to say Mary has no sin is to make Her equal with God. For all have sinned and fall short of God. Mary is made sinless, but by the blood of Jesus, but She was not sinless from the start. Or am I missing something?
Much respect, that was a great explanation. I am thinking about converting to catholicism myself. However, I have one question: if Mary was completely sinless by the grace of God, she had no free will?
She had free will, but she cooperated with God's grace. Since she was born without original sin, she did not have the same concupiscence as we do (tendency toward sin, the weakness of the flesh), and so it was easier for her. But she did have free will, sort of like we will all have free will in heaven, but will not sin against God. Hope that helps. We will pray for you and are here to help you on your journey should you need us. God bless!
Hi, just giving an example from my personal life if that helps.. I was struggling with a sin for a very long time... in one of my recent confessions, the priest confronted me on the wrong I was doing by using contraception... I decided with my wife that we will give it up.. the next thing I know I was filled with grace to give up that particular sin...now imagine mother Mary being in the state of grace every moment of her life.... so when the angel came to her,because she was filled with grace, the chances of here saying "yes" were far greater than an average woman in the world... the gift of free will is what separates humans from Angels although angles are far superior to us in all ways... hope this helps..
I am catholic myself. Catholicism is a cult ,pagan culture. I did a thorough study in RCC .Their false teachings, doctrines will divert your attention from Lord Jesus. Today I work hard to persuade my catholic bro and sister to come out of Catholic deception.
Hi Brian, thanks for making this video.. I used to struggle with the church dogmas and used to try to run away from them becuase I couldn't understand them.. thanks be to God, I now realise how these dogmas actually help to clear the doubts on "Jesus" rather than glorify mother Mary.. take for example the immaculate(IC) conception of Mary.. if you don't define it, then you actually have the original sin passed on from Mary to Jesus and then He cannot be the sinless one offering himself on the cross.. the whole salvation through Jesus is then questionable.. any average atheist can point this out.... the question of "how" the IC of mother Mary happened, is something still a mystery to me... not sure what the tradition says about the birth of mother Mary (old age virginal conception or something) if you have any material on this from tradition, it would be helpful... please keep up the good work that you are doing.. your videos are actually going beyond your country to people thirsting for understanding the catholic faith also through reason as well.. God bless!!!
Praise be to God! We are so happy to hear that, and our desire is nothing more than to help people who are thirsting for the truth. What country are you watching from? And God bless you.
@@CatholicTruthOfficial well, I am from India... (Asian continent).. in India, Catholics are really small in number compared to the actual population of the country(about a 1.3 billion)...pls do pray for us and I will pray for you.. God bless!!
@@004followtheword Of course Jesus is our Lord, God the Son, The inner life or heart of God. But Jesus took His human nature through Mary. They are one body, like the old Adam and Eve. And through His sinless body and blood, you are saved.
Hi Brian! I’m 14 years old and I’m convinced on going back to Catholicism, can you please show me the textual context (lexicon I think it is) or whatever you call it, of the difference between Jesus and Stephen’s ‘Grace’ and Mary’s ‘Grace’?
9:43: “….this is what the earliest Christians were saying about Mary.” Isn’t it also true that there were others that rejected this doctrine? Origen, Tertullian, Basil, etc..
If this is true, if Mary was "protected by God from sin," why didn't the apostle Paul explicitly state this in his extensive writings in the NT? I read in Rom 3:23, "...all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God." Sorry, Bryan...not in the Word of God, I can't believe this to be true. Mary was not without a sin nature. Mary had children other than Jesus (Mk 6:3, Matt 13:55, Jn 7:3, Acts 1:13, 1 Cor 9:5). Mary was human, fully human, and she died just like we all have to die. Unless the Roman Catholic Church believes their authority exceeds that of the Word of God, please stop teaching this unbiblical dogma as truth.
So babies have sinned? Mentally challenged for handicapped people have sinned? Every single last person has sinned? No, there are exceptions. And it's funny that Protestants want everything word for word when the whole Center of their faith is Sola scriptura and that's not taught explicitly or even implicitly. That's the most ironic thing. Protestants believe something that's not even found in the Bible anywhere. But we showed why and where in the Bible it shows Mary was immaculately conceived.
Also, the only way you can say that Mary Had other children as if you read the Bible in English. If you read it in the original languages, it does not say they were Blood Brothers. We have a whole video on that. Here is a video proving that Mary did not have other children. That is a fault claim my product into the read the Bible by product into don't read the Bible correctly unfortunately and don't understand it. Https://ruclips.net/video/c23hgdXdp-g/видео.html
@@CatholicTruthOfficial Bible translators DO read/understand/study the Bible in the original languages, though...are you saying that their translation is correct about Mary everywhere else EXCEPT the parts that speak to Mary's children? Where are the contextual clues surrounding Matthew 13:55-56 which imply/indicate your desired usage of "adelphoi" in this passage? Your second sentence is unreadable, but I'll be watching that video and dropping comments there.
No he does not claim that salvation is through Mary. Know where does Bryan claim that salvation is by Mary. What he said is that salvation at self, Jesus Christ, came into this world through Mary. Jesus didn't just teleport down, he came into this world via Mary. And He is salvation itself.
@@nightshade99 yet you don't know who the Holy Queen is. Try playing your games somewhere else, I told you where you can find the answer you say you seek however I don't think you're genuine.

Catholic truth can you please answer are there different divisions in the Lutheran Church but still with the title Lutheran because when I went to class as a little girl the teacher asked if the Bible indicated that Mary was born without sin of course me as a child answered as to what I had thought from this video of course that answer is wrong The teacher stated that no where in the Bible does it say that Mary is without sin that that was only for Jesus not trying to troll just trying to get information friend here love your videos just trying to find out if the doctrine had changed or if the teacher didn’t understand something to correct us
@Carissa Hanson - did you watch the whole video? Let me share with you the true teachings about Mary especially item 4) which tells you the reasoning from the Bible why Mary is sinless : Catholics honour Mother Mary because 1. She is the Mother of Jesus, our Lord and deserves our respect. 2. Her role in our salvation is foretold in Genesis 3:15 when God told the Devil And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel." She is the only human being whom God has chosen for His plan to save the fallen human race - Jesus has to be born as a Man to have a lasting binding New Covenant with God as all other Covenants were broken. To be born as a man, Jesus needs to be born of a woman. Mary is obedient to God and said yes. She didn't ask for God's plan. I would and how shall my life be impacted. Who will take care of me when I grow old. Mary trusted God but a sword pierced her heart Luke 2:35 when Jesus was crucified. She gave Jesus his human DNA. So whilst Jesus did the saving, Mary was instrumental in out salvation. If Mary didn't said yes, and some other woman did, then we will honour this other woman none the lesser. 3. As Jesus is the King of Kings, Mother Mary is the Queen Mother. Just as Bathsheba interceded for the king's subjects in 1 Kings 2:19 When Bathsheba went to King Solomon to speak to him for Adonijah, the king stood up to meet her, bowed down to her and sat down on his throne. He had a throne brought for the king's mother, and she sat down at his right hand. Mother Mary Mary intercedes for all of us. Reference the Wedding at CanaJohn 2 : 1 to 12 when Christ performed His first miracle, even though He initially said it wasnt His time yet. Mother Mary didn't tell Jesus what to do but directs the servants to Jesus, just as she directs us now to Jesus. The focus and glory is always in Jesus. Intercession proves that the final decision and call still lies with God and Mary is not a deity. 4. God killed Uzzah in 2 Sam 6:6 to 7 for touching the Ark of the Old Covenant : When they came to the threshing floor of Nakon, Uzzah reached out and took hold of the ark of God, because the oxen stumbled. The Lord’s anger burned against Uzzah because of his irreverent act; therefore God struck him down, and he died there beside the ark of God. Despite doing a good deed by stabilising a falling Ark, Uzzah was deemed unworthy and to have defile the Ark. The Ark of the old Covenant carried the Word of God in stone. Mother Mary carried the Word of God in flesh. She is thus sinless as she had to carried the Living Word of God in her womb for 9 months. Uzzah was struck dead by a mere touch. What's more 9 months of pregnancy? Thus we honour Mother Mary for carrying the Living Word of God. The sacredness and holiness of the Old Ark was evident by Uzzah's slaying, what's more the New Ark which is carrying Jesus. 5. Jesus the King of Kings bestowed Queenship on His mother Rev 12 :1 A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head. This woman is Mary because she is in heaven where God is. The only human being God will allow Queenship in heaven is Jesus's mother - the Queen Mother of the King of Kings. This woman is not the Church as some Protestants claim because in subsequent verses.Rev 12 : 2 to 5 this woman gave birth to a son which will rule all nations and whom the devil wanted to harm but couldn't. The only human that can stand up to the devil is Jesus. REV 12 : 2 to 5 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered. And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born. And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne 6. We honour Mother Mary because we are grateful to her for saying Yes to God, when she was still an unmarried woman but had to bear Jesus, thereby being instrumental in the human race's salvation. 7. We honour Mother Mary because she was obedient to God and is our model of ideal discipleship. She didn't ask for God's detail operation plan, what's going to happen to her when she is found pregnant in old conservative Jewish society, how to answer to Joseph when he found out she is pregnant before their marriage, how is Mary going to live on financially if Joseph divorce her, what role is her son going to undertake etc. Nothing. No details needed. No assurances needed. Just a simple yes to God. And God is pleased with faithful disciples just as He is pleased with Abraham for his faithfulness. For these reasons, Mother Mary deserves our honour - just as how the Early Church honours her for 1500 years till the Reformation. The Orthodox Christians who broke away from the Catholic Church honours Mother Mary. Martin Luther, the Father of the Protestant Reformation loves Mother Mary, honours her and prays the rosary. The following are Luther 's sermons on Mary : The veneration of Mary is inscribed in the very depths of the human heart. (Sermon, September 1, 1522). [She is the] highest woman and the noblest gem in Christianity after Christ. ..She is nobility, wisdom, and holiness personified. We can never honor her enough. Still honor and praise must be given to her in such a way as to injure neither Christ nor the Scriptures. (Sermon, Christmas, 1531). No woman is like you. You are more than Eve or Sarah, blessed above all nobility, wisdom, and sanctity. (Sermon, Feast of the Visitation. 1537). One should honor Mary as she herself wished and as she expressed it in the Magnificat. She praised God for his deeds. How then can we praise her? The true honor of Mary is the honor of God, the praise of God's grace.. .Mary is nothing for the sake of herself, but for the sake of Christ...Mary does not wish that we come to her, but through her to God. (Explanation of the Magnificat, 1521). Luther goes even further, and gives the Blessed Virgin the exalted position of "Spiritual Mother" for Christians, much the same as in Catholic piety: It is the consolation and the superabundant goodness of God, that man is able to exult in such a treasure. Mary is his true Mother, Christ is his brother. God is his father. (Sermon. Christmas, 1522) Mary is the Mother of Jesus and the Mother of all of us even though it was Christ alone who reposed on her knees...If he is ours, we ought to be in his situation; there where he is, we ought also to be and all that he has ought to be ours, and his mother is also our mother. (Sermon, Christmas, 1529). Catholics honour Mother Mary but we also believed that Christ is still the only mediator with God. Christ and Christ alone.
@Carissa Hanson. A simple answer why Mary is born sinless is because Jesus is holy and sinless. Mary carried Jesus in her womb for 9 months. So Mary as a carrier of a pure, holy Jesus needs to be sinless to carry Jesus. Look T 2 Sam 6:6 Uzziah was killed by God because Uzziah touched the Ark of the Old Covenant carrying the Word of God in stone (10 commandments) . So Jesus as the New Covenant, the Word of God in flesh was carried in the New Ark of the Covenant which needs to be kept holy and sinless just like the Ark of the Old Covenant.
@@jeremiahong248 thank you for the information I probably need it anyway but my question had to do more with is there a division in the Lutheran Church like are they divided because my teacher had taught that nowhere in the Bible did it say Mary didn’t have sin and that that was not a Lutheran doctrine but evidently from the history here it was so I was just trying to decipher if there are different Lutheran churches that teach different doctrines but once again thank you for your information because it gives more clarification on that although I do believe the doctrine of Mary without saying thank you very much have a blessed advent and a merry Christmas

@@carissahanson9887 Yes there is division within the Lutheran Church. You can Google it. Some Lutherans believe in things that other Lutherans don't. I believe you attend the Lutheran Church ? Please refer to the following link which shows you the beliefs of the Early Church. Many are ordained and taught by the Apostles or their discipleship Mark and Timothy so they knew what Jesus really taught. There is only 1 interpretation as God doesn't double talk. So what the early Church really believed is a guide of the real interpretation if we need to resolve differences. staycatholic.com/early-church-fathers/ Merry Christmas 🎄 and Happy New Year !
As always, a great video, Bryan. As a bit of info, there is another misconception Protestants have about the Immaculate Conception. Many of us have been taught that the Immaculate Conception meant that Mary, herself, was born of a virgin. In fact, this is what I thought it meant until just last week! Out of curiosity, I watched a video by Trent Horn that explained what the teaching actually taught. Ah well, one more thing I thought about Catholicism that was wrong! Next?
@@redheadguy you sound like you are on your way “home”. Keep asking questions and doing your research... you will get there. Just remember it can take a lifetime for even us “cradle” Catholics to learn everything. You can always ask me questions, too. God bless!

@@queenofhearts7726 I appreciate the thought. I did download the Catechism of the Catholic Church, to see what it says. That is a BIG book! I wasn’t expecting that. I’m on page 50, or so. It will take awhile to get through that!
Thank you for your wonderful videos. Could you possibly do a video on Marian apparitions? I’m very uncomfortable with them, and feel uneasy towards them. I don’t believe in them to be frank...
When Mary appeared in Fatima in 1917 she said if people don’t repent of their sins a worse war than World War One would break out so she was right when she predicted world war 2. She said that if Russia wasn’t consecrated to her Immaculate Heart it would spread it’s errors throughout the world. The Bolshevik revolution started in 1918 and she was absolutely correct. I don’t think that Russia has yet been properly consecrated to her as she requested to this day. There were about 150,000,000 people that were slaughtered on the twentieth century due to communism which started in Russia in 1918. Then she performed the miracle of the sun on October 13 1917 in front of 70,000 people where they watched it dance in the sky, spin and throw all kinds of different colors while it was spinning and then people panicked and thought it was going to crash into the earth. When she appeared in Kibeho Rwanda in 1982 she told 3 Catholic school girls that if people didn’t get rid of the hate in their hearts that rivers of blood would flow. 1,000,000 Tutsi’s were machete’d and shot to death by the Hutu tribe in Rwanda in 1994. She accurately predicted that genocide 12 years before it happened. Don’t be afraid of the Blessed Mother. You can never love her more than Jesus does. He gave her to the whole world from the Cross when He said Woman behold thy son, and to the beloved disciple (which all Christians are) behold thy mother, and from that day forward the Beloved Disciple took her into his home. He wants all of us to take her into our homes as our mother. It was extremely important for Him to say this because he was suffocating to death as He said it.
If it was so early a doctrine as you said, why is it that the Orthodox church does not believe in the doctrine of immaculate conception? As we all know that the Great Schism happened in 1054, it is natural that the Orthodox church should have this doctrine in their dogma.
Dear Bryan, thank you for recommending this. I still find myself torn in two. You know my stand. I believe we have NO idea what Jesus really wanted us to do because of the scant historical record and that the gospels which were written after Paul who wrote the first books of the new testaments are necessarily tainted by his views. He who never met Jesus. I think the idea of the immaculate conception dogma is to satisfy the Hellenistic subconscious that Paul reached out to. They were pagan and were used to a pantheon. Just my opinion. The Jews then wouldn’t have needed it. The stricter then, as today, were looking for a messiah from the house David. And I think the Heck, I wouldn’t have needed it, if the son of God revealed himself to me as the son of a sinner man junkie, I would believe it based on *merit.* and I believe Jesus’s first followers KNEW he wasn’t of David’s line but still didn’t care. He came from Galilee. He was good, more than good, that’s good enough sure. I also don’t think the old testaments support the immaculate conception ie that genesis 3:15 has anything to do with Mary. If you’re reading the Septuagint I’d suggest reading the Hebrew. More regarding Mary. Do you find it odd that of four gospels, only two address the nativity, and they both contradict each other? One (Luke) says they came from Nazareth for a census which historically has less basis for having happened than Jesus has for existing. The concept of such a census is ridiculous anyway, you’d want to know who was living in your area of jurisdiction and Nazareth and Bethlehem.. well, one’s in Judea, the other isn’t. Matthew does not say where they originate but I imagine he tries to portray Joseph coming from Bethlehem but completely contradicts Luke’s account by saying they flee to Egypt, probably for many months to years. Which one is? Flee to Egypt or not? If they cannot get these basic facts right, and the other 2 remain silent, how can we be sure of the virgin birth. How can we be sure this is not another one of Paul’s ideas? *How can you be sure the doves were sacrificed so?* Note also the gradual change from the Subtle Mark to the Overt John about Jesus being God, the christology imo has a distinct different flavour. What is likely, taking Mark as the earliest gospel and hopefully the *least influenced* by umm. *evolving ideas* ... is that he was not really concerned about his birth, is that they were from around Galilee in Judea. *And there was probably a school of thought that did not think this was important.* John. Everything. And .... we have Paul. Not Jesus’s own brother’s words (James) nor Peter’s. Who was made to look after Mary when he died. Why didn’t he say something. And curiously, if he was to rise again, why would he appoint someone to look after his mother? All is not what it seems, my brothers and sisters. It is 2 thousand years, we only really have Paul’s story, I contend. Debate?
How, under the sun, can you say that the woman in Genesis 3:15 is Mary, and then have to do a 180 degree turn, knowing that God is definitely speaking to Eve in verse 16?
Because just as this verse is a foreshadowing of the Messiah, the New Adam, it's also a foreshadowing of the New Eve. The Bible is replete with this type of typology.
@@CatholicTruthOfficial I do not recall you using foreshadows and types on this topic of Genesis 3:15 in your video. There is a difference between staying in context with who God was actually speaking to in this chapter and using typology to indicate a future event. Actually, the entire Old Testament points to the coming of Messiah Jesus (John 5:39) "......testifies of ME." "The enmity" spoken of in verse 15 is the serpent's seed of deceit versus those who would be also born of fallen Eve; yet, having been made righteous before God through faith; for the scripture says that "Jesus (the Truth) was slain before the foundation of the world." The foreshadowing and type in the above Genesis passage has its place here, as does the entire Old Testament, but the emphasis must be always pointing to Jesus (John 5:39). Yes, there are inferences in the OT pertaining to Jesus being born of a woman; however, a woman who was born of the fallen seed of Eve, and chosen by God to bring forth a male child born of the seed of God without a fallen nature.
@Brian Farley To say that Mary was born without the stain of original sin---and remained sinless---is to say that she was not born of the fallen seed of Adam. If Mary was not born of the fallen seed of Adam, then Mary's mother was not either; and right on down the line. If what you are espousing is true, then Mary takes-on the God incarnate mode, because only God is sinless. Then again, the Roman Catholic Church has been on a crusade for years to place Mary above all other mighty men and women of God found from Genesis to Revelation. Jesus never did anything of the kind concerning His mother. He went as far as making a point of it in Luke 11: 27&28. The woman in the crowd wanted to make a strong point about the power of the women's role of bringing forth children. Could you imagine how taken aback this woman was, when Jesus responded the way He did about His mother? Jesus' response was revealing (to all who were within the sound of His voice) that no one is more blessed than the one who hears the word of God and keeps it. In as much as Mary is called blessed among all women, because of being chosen by God to bring forth salvation; it surely does not include blessed among all people.
@Brian Farley The religious heirarchy of Jesus' day felt and said to Jesus the same.things that you just said . They thought He was arrogant; yet, He simply spoke the word of God. I am sure that you know the rest of the story about what they eventually did to Him.

Unbiblical teachings, with no scriptural basis, fails to understand why you try to bestow her something and equate her to God and parrot such blasphemy.
Not uniblical, hence the video. The only thing that is not biblical is sola scripture up. The foundation of the protestant religions and it's not even biblical.
The Bible doesnt teach that Mary was born free from sin. Grace means Gods favor on you. The angel was saying Gods favor is on you. Nobody besides Jesus completely obeyed the Father.Mary went to the temple and made sin offerings.Marvel not that you must be born again.
Yes, Mary was free from sin. You should probably try watching the video. And yes, well Mary is favored, the word that the angel used for Mary goes far deeper than that and is used in a singular way only for Mary. It's not found anywhere else in the Bible.
@@CatholicTruthOfficialwhy didnt Jesus go to the temple and make a sin offering? If Mary was without sin and Jesus wass without sin that makes Jesus a sinner because he never made the sin offering so He is not qualified to take away the sin of the world.Remember the sacrificial lamb had to be perfect, meaning Jesus was perfect,without sin.He testified to that too.
@@CatholicTruthOfficial I agree with you Bryan. Jesus was baptised but it doesn't mean he needed to wash away HIS sins, the same way (with the same logic) Blessed Mary's sin offering doesn't mean she sinned. But ppl who don't want to believe it will not anyway. God bless xx
@@CatholicTruthOfficial And the reason you absolutely positively refuse to point to any scripture (but keep repeating video, video) is because you KNOW there is zero, zero scripture in the Bible that says Mary was sinless. None. I’m not interested in someone talking about scripture that they can pour their own meaning into. It’s really easy, where in the Bible does it say Mary was sinless????? Such deception. Just another scheme from Satan to remove attention from Jesus.
I'm in Italy on December 8th. Half of the city was closed yesterday, so I wonder: I wonder what kind of mental health issues you need to suffer to celebrate this.
Gen 3:15 talks about the curses that God pronounced upon his creatures (Adam, Eve and Lucifer) for breaking his law... where is Mary from in all this my dear brother???
She's the woman talked about in the verse. It's not easy being talked about because she already participated in Satan's seed which is sin. The woman was with the Redeemer and not Satan. So the woman would not be easy. It's a foreshadowing of Mary just as the Redeemer would be Jesus.
You said immaculate conception is that Mary was “born” without original sin. Or is it that Mary was “conceived” without original sin? I think there is a difference.
Mary was not sinless . she was born of Earthly parents and sin passed upon all . No where in the Scriptures does it say she was sinless . Being full of Grace does not mean she was sinless . and she died like all mankind . what is Grace , it is undeserved love of God nothing to do with being free of sin . This man is an biblical illiterate . He believes every thing the apostate Catholic Church says and most o it is not found in the scriptures and there for not of God . and baptism dose not save you , you are dead in sin . and the only way to have life is to be quicken by the spirit or made alive . water does not regenerate or make new . you must be born from above and become a new creation in Christ .
If direct exposure to the Flesh of Christ for 15 minutes at a time caused severe illness and even death to unclean Corinthians, how could the Blessed Virgin have survived direct exposure for nine months, unless she was clean?
It says search the scriptures, it doesn't say read the Bible. How do you know the books in the Bible or Scripture? Where does it say that Hebrews is Scripture? Where does it say Mark is scripture? How do we know 1 Corinthians has inspired? Paul said all scripture is inspired, but how do we know the books in the Bible are scripture?
No. Jesus is the ONLY one who deserved the privilege of being conceived by a woman completely free from sin because NO ONE in the entire universe is infinitely Holy as He is (except God the Father and the Holy Spirit). To say that Mary herself also deserved to be conceived in the womb of a sinless woman amounts to putting Mary on the same level as Jesus Christ which is unacceptable
I don’t really agree with the whole sinless Mary thing. To be honest I believe Catholics sometimes read into things that aren’t there (like this). Good thing it has nothing to do with our salvation! Excited for Heaven when all these things will be fully understood. When no one argues about anything!
I also agree that they see things which are not in the Bible and force the ideas to concur with their doctrines. Grace means undeserved favour not sinfulness. Furthermore what a Christian needs is to believe Jesus as the Saviour.
"Therefore hear the Word of The Lord, for thus says The Lord: Do not be deceived; let satan gain no foothold. For there is but One God and One Savior, One Deliverer in the Day of Wrath. Again, I say to you, do not be deceived. Satan can not change his visage and become man. He is what he is, and remains who he became to this day. He is heylel, son of the morning, with a heart like the abyss. And those fallen are like him, corrupted by those same things which consume him. Yet satan has indeed appeared to men, sending them strong delusions, preying upon that which already dwells within them; even imitating Mary, the mother of The Messiah, deceiving those who remain ignorant of the Truth, leading a multitude away into false worship and idolatry. So then satan only imitates the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he tells a lie, he is only doing what comes natural to him, because he is a liar and the father of all lies. Thus he does indeed wear many disguises, and delights in leading My people astray. For by clever words and dark speeches he bears false witness, leading multitudes away into faiths which are dead - FALSE RELIGIONS! DETESTABLE PRACTICES! ABOMINATIONS! YahuShua HaMashiach is The Gift, He is The Only Way; there is salvation in no other, nor any other name under Heaven by which you must be saved. Thus ALL religions of this world are an abomination in the eyes of The Most High God! Every one of them pollutes the land and spreads forth like a plague! Behold, even those who bear My name have become like them! Not one worships Me in spirit or in truth, all have gone astray! Corrupt workers, arrogant assemblies, you worship yourselves! Yes even you, O churches of men, have corrupted the Word of Truth, and do not cease from polluting My name! You misuse My name and abuse My Word, subverting the people through false doctrine and filthy tradition! You encourage them to forsake My Commandments and ignore My every decree! In the name of The Holy One, you cause My people to sin! By permission, UNDER GRACE, you encourage them to transgress The Commandments of God, teaching and preaching to them another messiah, adding to and taking away from My Word to uphold your own way, and all for the sake of unjust gain! Shall I not discipline you for these things?! Shall I not bring down My hand hard upon you?! Shall I not come forth swiftly and wipe ALL religions from the face of the earth?! Yet true faith has a name, and true religion yields fruit of the same: A Bride who obeys the voice of her Husband and walks in His ways, a people worthy to be called by His name. Yet the light has departed from the churches of men, The Word of Truth is hidden from their eyes. All is corrupt and dying, darkness fills the earth. And so The Word was sent, and came into The world to seek and to save the lost... And behold, He is coming again, to deliver His own, All those who believe and live by The Word; And to destroy those who fight against The Word, For they too are bound by The Word... For The Word stands forever... Immovable and everlasting, unchangeable, Having complete authority over all things, The light and the dark, the righteous and the wicked... Indeed, the whole universe is set within The confines of His will, giving heed to Him Who created it, forever and ever... Amen." trumpetcallofgodonline.com/index.php5?title=Judgment%2C_Transgression%2C_and_The_Word
All have sinned and fallen short. None are ritcheous, no, not one... you quote these scriptures, and more, yet miss the thing they declare. We are all sinners...including babies,thats the whole point. If it were possible to be sinless then Jesus would not have had to die for us but continue with the 10 commandments only . The commandments (law) was given to show us that salvation by oursevles was impossible, that we are all (the whole of humanity on the whole earth for all history)! Mary was a sinner, she admits as much in her prayer and with her conversation with the angel Gabriel. This teaching in light of scripture is therefore false no matter how much you try to explain it. We are all full of Grace through God's favour through the work of His Son but not through ourselves, as you said, so how can you also say she was sinless. Mary, the new ark?... really?.. Again, I pray The Holy Spirit will lift the Catholic tradition scales off your eyes so you can see The Lord's heart in His scriptures alone.
Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man? Luke 1:34 If Mary had immaculate conception, this question was baseless Mary, mother of Jesus received God's grace. She is daughter of God. Not mother of God. Don't twist the word of God.
You are mistaken. The Immaculate conception has nothing to do with whether or not Mary had any intimate relations with a man. The Immaculate conception refers to the sinless conception of Mary in her own mother's womb. It is not referring to the conception of Jesus in Mary's womb. When she asked the angel: "how can this be since I know not man?", She wasn't denying her immaculate conception -- she was simply trying to find out how she was going to have a child without knowing a man. (And that is why the angel went on to explain to her that it was going to happen through the power of the Holy Spirit) Secondly, Mary is the Mother of God because Jesus is EQUAL to God since He has the exact same nature (i.e the divine nature) as His Father
@@kallungaljosephdaniel7579 of course it is biblical. Hebrews 1:3 says that Jesus Christ is the "EXACT expression" or the "EXACT copy" of the nature of God. The Greek word used here is "charakter" which means "being IDENTICAL to someone in EVERY aspect". This is the ONLY place in the Bible were that word "charakter" is used. Bible never used that word to describe any human being or angel EXCEPT Jesus Christ. This is because Jesus Christ is the ONLY one who is just like His Father in EVERY way (there is no attribute or characteristic that God has which Jesus doesn't have). That is why Jesus is EQUAL to God because His nature is EXACTLY identical to the nature of God the Father. Human beings in general are created in "image and likeness" of God but they DO NOT have the "charakter" of God i.e they are NOT exactly like God in every aspect, hence human beings are NOT EQUAL to God
Catholics calls her the mother of God because she gave birth to Jesus and since Jesus is God that would make her the mother of God. She didn't create God but only gave birth to Him. Pretty simple to understand
Nice, Mary didn't require a Savior, neither did Mary said, God my Savior. In the bible there is no scripture that clearly says Mary was sinless, but Quran do. So the immaculate conception of Mary comes straight from Qur'an.
We are all God. All Connected. All God's. Jesus & Mary were like you & I... only they became Enlightened or Spiritually Awoken. When your Enlightened, you can communicate with their Souls.
Mary did need a saviour in a sense that she was preserved from sin since her conception that is what this whole mary is born without sin means Mary never sinned because she was not born with original sin she was saved
The salvation of Jesus was for all mankind. As mother Mary is a human being, she also needed to be saved.. the child within the womb (Jesus) was her salvation.. a specially made woman for a singular purpose of bringing jesus into the world..
The unholy Pope Pius IX, lied and said this on the Immaculate Conception:+ “Above all creatures did God so loved her that truly in her was the Father well pleased with singular delight. Therefore, far above all the angels and all the saints so wondrously did God endow her with the abundance of all heavenly gifts poured from the treasury of his divinity that this mother, ever absolutely free of all stain of sin, all fair and perfect, would possess that fullness of holy innocence and sanctity than which, under God, one cannot even imagine anything greater, and which, outside of God, no mind can succeed in comprehending fully.” THIS IS BLASPHEMHY. NO WEHRE IN GOD'S WORD. CHRIST IS ONLYH ONE far above all angels Ephesians 1:21-23 "Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all." Hebrews 1:5-8 says " For to which of the angels did He ever say: “You are My Son, Today I have begotten You”? And again:“I will be to Him a Father, And He shall be to Me a Son”? But when He again brings the firstborn into the world, He says:“Let all the angels of God worship Him.” And of the angels He says: “Who makes His angels spirits And His ministers a flame of fire.” But to the Son He says: “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; a scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your kingdom".1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Hebrew 1:1- God at sundry times spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, IN THESE LAST DAYS SPOKEN UNTO US BY HIS SON, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high; Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they. For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son? And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him."
Falsehood. ‘If you say the Rosary faithfully until death, I do assure you that, in spite of the gravity of your sins “you shall receive a never-fading crown of glory.” Even if you are on the brink of damnation, even if you have one foot in hell, even if you have sold your soul to the devil as sorcerers do who practice black magic, and even if you are a heretic as obstinate as a devil, sooner or later you will be converted and will amend your life and save your soul, if - and mark well what I say - if you say the Rosary devoutly every day until death for the purpose of knowing the truth and obtaining contrition and pardon for your sins.’ -St. Louis Marie de Montfort (Secret of the Rosary)
Why is it false? Just putting down something and saying it's false does not make it false. Just because you think it's falter doesn't make it pop. Have you read the book? Or are you just taking this one part out of context? And not trying to understand what the author is even saying?
So you didn't watch the video, You didn't even attempt to, but you're here just to say that. Or this is just a weak argument of yours! The thing about Protestants is that you're scared to even go your research and look up stuff to learn about other denominations. You're told not to because your way is the only way.
Jesus was a normal man.... like anyone else. He & Mary... his twin flame and partner both became Enlightened in their 30's... like myself. All Jesus wanted was to spread the word on how to become Enlightened too. He was a sinner because he was human, same with Mary. Nothing to feel shame for though.... everyone sins, even in Enlightenment.
Wow, unbelievable 🤦🏽♂️. Mary is not the new Eve, you Catholics read everything out of context. Keep up your Mary worship, I’m sure she will save you since she was just like Jesus, perfect and sinless🤦🏽♂️
Mary is the New Eve. All the earliest Christians believed this. We don't believe she saves us. That is a shallow strawman argument. We will pray for you.
@@CatholicTruthOfficial she’s the new eve according to who, you and the Catholic Church🤦🏽♂️? U talk about she being in Genesis, the beginning right? Mary wasn’t there in the beginning, only Jesus was.
GOD HAS NO MOTHER THATS BLASFOIMOUS COSE GOD EXIST BEFORE MARY EXISTED AND BEFORE JESUS EXISTED GOD IS UNMATERIAL BEING NO BEGIN NO END WE ARE ALL CREATION EVEN MARY AND JESUS THATS RIGHT FAITH
That is true. God has no mother. But, Jesus has a mother, Mary, and Jesus is God. in that sense she is the mother of God. We have a video with more information on this if you are interested. ruclips.net/video/_ESshYyF9xo/видео.html

Are you exposing your personal bias in public without any evidence. Show me where in the bible it says that Mary sinned and what that sin was. You have no Authority to say such things except your own prideful far overblown opinion of your interpretive 'skills' and absolutely nothing else to present why anyone should listen to you. Your only objective is to negate truth and promote your nonsense ideas. Try making your own video and actually try to present your ideas for peer review like Catholic Truth does. You will find in that exercise just how foolish and unfounded your ideas really are.
@@39knights I choose to ignore ur insults on my humble person and continue to enlighten u with biblical Truth so that all those u have deceived for close to 2000 years will finally see the Light! Mary the mother of Jesus was a godly and blessed woman, but she was not without sin. Jesus was the only human without sin. Jesus “had no sin” (2 Corinthians 5:21). “In him is no sin” (1 John 3:5). Nothing of the sort is ever said of Mary or anyone else. Jesus Christ is fully human, but He is also fully God (John 1:1). He is the Lamb of God, “without blemish or defect” (1 Peter 1:19), a title and description no other person can claim. As an ordinary part of the human race, born into the world the ordinary way, Mary was not without sin. Romans 3:23 teaches that all have sinned and fall short of God’s glory, and there is nothing in the Bible to suggest that Mary was an exception to this rule. The apostle John wrote, “If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word is not in us” (1 John 1:8-10). The “we” in this passage includes Mary, the mother of Jesus. To claim Mary is without sin is an example of “deceit.” To help bolster their teaching that Mary was sinless, the Roman Catholic Church has invented the doctrine of the Immaculate Conception (formally accepted as Catholic dogma in 1854). According to this false teaching, Mary was, from her very conception in her mother’s womb, “preserved free from all stain of original sin.” That is, Mary had no sinful nature. This doctrine is neither biblical nor necessary. The virgin-born Christ Jesus was free from the stain of original sin, but it was not necessary for His mother to be-or His grandmother-or His great-grandmother, etc. How far back would we have to go to insure Jesus’ perfection, if it were necessary for Mary to be sinless? Rather than teach that Mary was sinless, the Bible gives evidence that she was a normal person with a normal person’s need of salvation. In Mary’s praise-filled, humble prayer in Luke 1, she says, “My spirit rejoices in God my Savior” (verse 47). If she were sinless, she would not have needed a “Savior.” Mary receives a gentle rebuke from Jesus in John 2:4, which hardly seems fitting if she were sinless. Catholicism also teaches that the reference to Mary being “highly favored” (Luke 1:28) and one who was “blessed . . . among women” (Luke 1:42) supports the view of a sinless Mary. However, neither verse makes such a claim. It is possible to be blessed and know God’s favor without being sinless. Catholic teaching also describes Mary as “full of grace,” but that phrase is found only twice in the Bible, and neither time is it in reference to Mary. Jesus is said to be “full of grace” (John 1:14), and so is Stephen (Acts 6:8). The veneration of Mary in Catholicism and some other liturgical religious systems has led to the unbiblical claim that Mary was without sin. Other unbiblical doctrines have also cropped up around the view of a sinless Mary: the teaching that she was a perpetual virgin, that she hears and answers our prayers, that she shares in our redemption, and that she is a mediator of grace, to name a few. Those who revere a sinless Mary are being “led astray from . . . sincere and pure devotion to Christ” (2 Corinthians 11:3). The Mary Cult is definitely not about Miriam the Mother of Jesus from every indication, it must be another Mary 😂😂😂
@@39knights MARY WAS A SINNER, NEEDED A SAVIOR, HAD MORE THAN FOUR CHILDREN, AND IS NOT MEDIATRIX. Proof of her being a sinner Firstly, all men have sinned, including Mary, and fallen short of the glory of God [Rom 3:23], and through one man sin entered the world and death spread to all men [Rom 5:12]. King David writing in Psalms says that he was brought forth in iniquity and in sin when his mother conceived him - biblical proof of mankinds sinful nature from the time of conception. [Psa 51:5]. According to the law of Moses every mother that conceived, either a male or female, had to after an appointed time offer sacrifices to God: one as a burnt offering, and one as a sin offering [Lev.12]. Mary, after conceiving Jesus made these sacrifices in accordance and obedience to the Law God gave to Moses. This is clearly indicated to us in the book of Luke chap. 2 ver. 21-24, as Mary applies this very observance as is required of every Jewish woman who conceives her first born son. Read Leviticus 12 is first, understand what is being said, then read Luke 2:21-24. Once reading and understanding what is being said, it is clear that the offering Mary offers makes according to ... law of the Lord, A pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons. [Lk.2:24], ... the one for the burnt offering, and the other for a sin offering: ... [Lev. 12:8]. The sin offering Mary gives is sufficient evidence Mary's carnality. In need of a Saviour Other proof of Mary being a sinner is found when Mary declares the need of a saviour. One is only in need of a saviour when realizing they are helpless and hopeless; that God in Christ having paid the penalty for the sins of mankind, is the One in Whom we are able to find redemption. [Col.1:12-14]. Mary also said, "My soul doth magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour" [Luke 1:46,47]. Again, Mary admits her estate as the handmaiden of God and not "Mother of God". Admiting her estate as a handmaiden because God used her instrumentally as a vessel to conceive the Lord Jesus Christ. By Mary s own words, she removes any idea of pre-emanance so as not to assume exaltation above God s calling upon her life. "For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed" [Luke 1:48]. Had more than four children The Scriptures catergorically state the family Jesus had, and that Mary did conceive after the birth of Jesus. She never remained a virgin, and can never be considered "immaculate" as the Roman Catholic Church has exalteded her to be. "Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas? And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then hath this man all these things?" (Mat 13:55,56). Not Mediatrix Mary as mediatrix is unfounded in Scripture. Scripture tells us who makes intercession for the saints before the Father. There are two mediators in Scripture, who are: Firstly, the Lord Jesus Christ. By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament. And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death: But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood. Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them. [Heb 7:22-25]. Secondly, the Holy Spirit. Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. [Rom 8:26,27]. Get the Truth from scripture and not from ur pagan man made dogmas!!! 🤨

What I also saw before walking down the road towards Rome was the similarities between the miraculous conception prophecies of Abraham & Sarah and Zechariah with Sarah laughing at the possibility and Zechariah asking for proof vs Mary’s confused question of “How will this be since I am a virgin?” and her humble “Behold the Lord’s bond-servant; let it be according to your word.” This struck me so hard as an evangelical that I thought to myself “Now I get why Catholics think so highly of Mary.” About ten years later I received first Eucharist and was confirmed as I entered into communion with the Catholic Church at Easter Vigil 2019.

God bless you too!
In the old testament scripture there were men who was taken up into heaven, Enoch & Elijah.
It's God's choice and His will.
Genesis 5:21-24 (KJV)
And Enoch lived sixty and five years, and begat Methuselah:
And Enoch walked with God after he begat Methuselah three hundred years, and begat sons and daughters:
And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty and five years:
And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him.
2 Kings 2 (KJV)
And it came to pass, when the Lord would take up Elijah into heaven by a whirlwind, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.
And yet, when we talk about Mary suddenly it becomes blasphemous?
In the New Testament, the new Ark is not an inanimate object, but a person: Mary. How much more pure would the new Ark be when we consider the old ark was a mere “shadow” in relation to it (see Heb. 10:1)? This image of Mary as the Ark of the Covenant is an indicator that Mary would fittingly be free from all contagion of sin to be a worthy vessel to bear God in her womb. And most importantly, just as the Old Covenant Ark was pristine from the moment it was constructed with explicit divine instructions in Exodus 25, so would Mary be pure from the moment of her conception. God, in a sense, prepared his own dwelling place in both the Old and New Testaments.
The Ark of the Covenant contained three “types” of Jesus inside: manna, Aaron’s rod, and the Ten Commandments. In Hebrew, commandment (dabar) can be translated “word.” Compare: Mary carried the fulfillment of all these types in her body. Jesus is the “true [manna] from heaven” (John 6:32), the true “High Priest” (Heb. 3:1), and “the word made flesh” (John 1:14).
The glory cloud (Hebrew Anan) was representative of the Holy Spirit, and it “overshadowed” the Ark when Moses consecrated it in Ex. 40:32-33. The Greek word for “overshadow” found in the Septuagint is a form of episkiasei. Compare: “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will be called holy, the Son of God” (Luke 1:35). The Greek word for “overshadow” is episkiasei.
David “leapt and danced” before the Ark when it was being carried into Jerusalem in procession in 2 Sam. 6:14-16. Compare: As soon as Elizabeth heard the sound of Mary’s salutation, John the Baptist “leaped for joy” in her womb (cf. Luke 1:41-44).
After a manifestation of the power of God working through the Ark, David exclaims, “How can the Ark of the Lord come unto me?” Compare: After the revelation to Elizabeth about the true calling of Mary, who was carrying God in her womb, Elizabeth exclaims, “Why is this granted me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?” (Luke 1:43)
The Ark of the Lord “remained in the house of Obededom . . . three months” in 2 Sam. 6:11. Compare: “Mary remained with [Elizabeth] for about three months” (Luke 1:56).
Mary was chosen by GOD Himself, it's His choice and His will.
Luke 1:28-30 (KJV)
And the angel came in unto her, and said, HAIL, THOU THAT ART HIGHLY FAVOURED, THE LORD IS WITH THEE: blessed art thou among women.
And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.
And the angel said unto her, FEAR NOT, MARY: FOR THOU HAST FOUND FAVOUR WITH GOD.
Thanks for this topic it help me more to understand God bless

💜🙏🏼💜✝️💜🙏🏼💜
Gracias , thank you so much. Great explanation and if you aloud me I would like to add what Father Carlos Cancelado said: “imagine Genesis 3,15 as a war between the gentle girl and the beast” in what side are you or in what side do you want to be?
De nada! Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for the comment. Dios te bendiga!
Do you have a discussion on the Douey Rheims Bible and the NABRE Bible?
No, not yet. Sorry.
How do you not have more subscribers Mr. Mercier? You are awesome
Oh have a blessed advent and a very merry Christmas
Thank you! You too!!!
@@CatholicTruthOfficial Merry Xmas and Happy New Year to you Bryan and family !
Since when was Mary immaculately conceived??? New to me.
This has been believed from the earliest days of Christianity. Even some of the early Christians talk about it.
@@CatholicTruthOfficial fine, but you need to have some solid theological evidence found in the Bible or elsewhere to argue this point, it's not enough at this stage to just claim "people believed it", people believe in horoscopes but we know they are fake.
Amazing explanation. GOD bless

This was amazing! Thank you so much!
You're so welcome!
Brother why is Mary called co redeemer? Protestants say only Jesus is the Redeemer.
The title is Co-redemptrix. It's a Latin word that does _not_ mean coredeemer but rather "A woman with the Redeemer" showing how Mary participated with Christ in bringing salvation into the world. She said yes to God, and so salvation came in Christ through her womb. It's not an official title of the Catholic Church. But we have a video on this if you are interested. ruclips.net/video/eyx-K8qWOPI/видео.html
Luke 1:46-47 "And Mary said, My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior.
What does Mary need to be saved from if She has no sin?
Why does She need a Savior? A Savior from what?
Romans 3:23 "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God"
So the answer here is "all" doesn't mean "all"? This sounds like President Clinton in Court.
So Mary is excluded from the "all" here?
Who else is excluded from the "all"
I'm sorry just struggling with this.
So when Paul writes "for all have sinned and fall short of the Glory of God", what he means is there is a group of people somewhere who have not sinned? Mary is part of that group?
@@donhaddix3770 That statement makes sense to me, Mary had a human father, therefore Sin nature. Jesus is both fully God and Fully Human. Mary is the mother of the Human part of Jesus so I think She deserves much respect. She was chosen by God to do this. However and I may be wrong, but my issue is that it was Jesus who created Mary, No? Jesus existed before his incarnation, Jesus existed before Mary and is Mary's creator, God and Savior, just as She herself states in Luke 1:46-47. Jesus said, Before Abraham was, I AM. It seems to me, to say Mary has no sin is to make Her equal with God. For all have sinned and fall short of God. Mary is made sinless, but by the blood of Jesus, but She was not sinless from the start. Or am I missing something?
Romans 3 isn't talking about the whole world but rather only the Greeks and the Jews.
@@emoore1439 How do you arrive at that conclusion? Even if that is true, Mary is a Jew. No?
Much respect, that was a great explanation. I am thinking about converting to catholicism myself. However, I have one question: if Mary was completely sinless by the grace of God, she had no free will?
She had free will, but she cooperated with God's grace. Since she was born without original sin, she did not have the same concupiscence as we do (tendency toward sin, the weakness of the flesh), and so it was easier for her. But she did have free will, sort of like we will all have free will in heaven, but will not sin against God.
Hope that helps. We will pray for you and are here to help you on your journey should you need us. God bless!
@@CatholicTruthOfficial That helped a lot. Thank you very much
Hi, just giving an example from my personal life if that helps.. I was struggling with a sin for a very long time... in one of my recent confessions, the priest confronted me on the wrong I was doing by using contraception... I decided with my wife that we will give it up.. the next thing I know I was filled with grace to give up that particular sin...now imagine mother Mary being in the state of grace every moment of her life.... so when the angel came to her,because she was filled with grace, the chances of here saying "yes" were far greater than an average woman in the world... the gift of free will is what separates humans from Angels although angles are far superior to us in all ways... hope this helps..
I am catholic myself. Catholicism is a cult ,pagan culture. I did a thorough study in RCC .Their false teachings, doctrines will divert your attention from Lord Jesus. Today I work hard to persuade my catholic bro and sister to come out of Catholic deception.
@@deepaknayak7686 Why are you catholic, then?
Hi Brian, thanks for making this video.. I used to struggle with the church dogmas and used to try to run away from them becuase I couldn't understand them.. thanks be to God, I now realise how these dogmas actually help to clear the doubts on "Jesus" rather than glorify mother Mary.. take for example the immaculate(IC) conception of Mary.. if you don't define it, then you actually have the original sin passed on from Mary to Jesus and then He cannot be the sinless one offering himself on the cross.. the whole salvation through Jesus is then questionable.. any average atheist can point this out.... the question of "how" the IC of mother Mary happened, is something still a mystery to me... not sure what the tradition says about the birth of mother Mary (old age virginal conception or something) if you have any material on this from tradition, it would be helpful... please keep up the good work that you are doing.. your videos are actually going beyond your country to people thirsting for understanding the catholic faith also through reason as well..

Hi Brian! I’m 14 years old and I’m convinced on going back to Catholicism, can you please show me the textual context (lexicon I think it is) or whatever you call it, of the difference between Jesus and Stephen’s ‘Grace’ and Mary’s ‘Grace’?
SHALOM!❤
👏👏❤
9:43: “….this is what the earliest Christians were saying about Mary.”
Isn’t it also true that there were others that rejected this doctrine? Origen, Tertullian, Basil, etc..
This is why Lucifer rebelled against God.
ruclips.net/video/r8I8DDfewMU/видео.html
If this is true, if Mary was "protected by God from sin," why didn't the apostle Paul explicitly state this in his extensive writings in the NT? I read in Rom 3:23, "...all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God." Sorry, Bryan...not in the Word of God, I can't believe this to be true.
Mary was not without a sin nature. Mary had children other than Jesus (Mk 6:3, Matt 13:55, Jn 7:3, Acts 1:13, 1 Cor 9:5). Mary was human, fully human, and she died just like we all have to die. Unless the Roman Catholic Church believes their authority exceeds that of the Word of God, please stop teaching this unbiblical dogma as truth.
So babies have sinned? Mentally challenged for handicapped people have sinned? Every single last person has sinned? No, there are exceptions. And it's funny that Protestants want everything word for word when the whole Center of their faith is Sola scriptura and that's not taught explicitly or even implicitly. That's the most ironic thing. Protestants believe something that's not even found in the Bible anywhere. But we showed why and where in the Bible it shows Mary was immaculately conceived.
Also, the only way you can say that Mary Had other children as if you read the Bible in English. If you read it in the original languages, it does not say they were Blood Brothers. We have a whole video on that.
Here is a video proving that Mary did not have other children. That is a fault claim my product into the read the Bible by product into don't read the Bible correctly unfortunately and don't understand it. Https://ruclips.net/video/c23hgdXdp-g/видео.html
@@CatholicTruthOfficial I am aramaic and I can say that you are right. We often (and still!) refer to cousins or even friends as “brothers”.
Read the entirety of Romans 3 and you'll see Paul was only talkin about the Greeks and Jews
@@CatholicTruthOfficial Bible translators DO read/understand/study the Bible in the original languages, though...are you saying that their translation is correct about Mary everywhere else EXCEPT the parts that speak to Mary's children?
Where are the contextual clues surrounding Matthew 13:55-56 which imply/indicate your desired usage of "adelphoi" in this passage?
Your second sentence is unreadable, but I'll be watching that video and dropping comments there.
So if you FF to 10:35-11:00. This guy claims that Salvation is through Mary. I cannot find Mary's name in John 3:16.
No he does not claim that salvation is through Mary. Know where does Bryan claim that salvation is by Mary. What he said is that salvation at self, Jesus Christ, came into this world through Mary. Jesus didn't just teleport down, he came into this world via Mary. And He is salvation itself.
@@CatholicTruthOfficial I listened to what he said. That is what is said.
“To bring salvation into this world was through marry” …..
Martin Luther was originally a Catholic right? Hence he was saying Mary was sinless.

Catholic truth can you please answer are there different divisions in the Lutheran Church but still with the title Lutheran because when I went to class as a little girl the teacher asked if the Bible indicated that Mary was born without sin of course me as a child answered as to what I had thought from this video of course that answer is wrong The teacher stated that no where in the Bible does it say that Mary is without sin that that was only for Jesus not trying to troll just trying to get information friend here love your videos just trying to find out if the doctrine had changed or if the teacher didn’t understand something to correct us
@Carissa Hanson - did you watch the whole video? Let me share with you the true teachings about Mary especially item 4) which tells you the reasoning from the Bible why Mary is sinless :
Catholics honour Mother Mary because
1. She is the Mother of Jesus, our Lord and deserves our respect.
2. Her role in our salvation is foretold in Genesis 3:15 when God told the Devil
And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel."
She is the only human being whom God has chosen for His plan to save the fallen human race - Jesus has to be born as a Man to have a lasting binding New Covenant with God as all other Covenants were broken. To be born as a man, Jesus needs to be born of a woman. Mary is obedient to God and said yes. She didn't ask for God's plan. I would and how shall my life be impacted. Who will take care of me when I grow old. Mary trusted God but a sword pierced her heart Luke 2:35 when Jesus was crucified. She gave Jesus his human DNA. So whilst Jesus did the saving, Mary was instrumental in out salvation. If Mary didn't said yes, and some other woman did, then we will honour this other woman none the lesser.
3. As Jesus is the King of Kings, Mother Mary is the Queen Mother. Just as Bathsheba interceded for the king's subjects in 1 Kings 2:19
When Bathsheba went to King Solomon to speak to him for Adonijah, the king stood up to meet her, bowed down to her and sat down on his throne. He had a throne brought for the king's mother, and she sat down at his right hand.
Mother Mary Mary intercedes for all of us. Reference the Wedding at CanaJohn 2 : 1 to 12 when Christ performed His first miracle, even though He initially said it wasnt His time yet. Mother Mary didn't tell Jesus what to do but directs the servants to Jesus, just as she directs us now to Jesus. The focus and glory is always in Jesus. Intercession proves that the final decision and call still lies with God and Mary is not a deity.
4. God killed Uzzah in 2 Sam 6:6 to 7 for touching the Ark of the Old Covenant :
When they came to the threshing floor of Nakon, Uzzah reached out and took hold of the ark of God, because the oxen stumbled. The Lord’s anger burned against Uzzah because of his irreverent act; therefore God struck him down, and he died there beside the ark of God.
Despite doing a good deed by stabilising a falling Ark, Uzzah was deemed unworthy and to have defile the Ark.
The Ark of the old Covenant carried the Word of God in stone. Mother Mary carried the Word of God in flesh. She is thus sinless as she had to carried the Living Word of God in her womb for 9 months. Uzzah was struck dead by a mere touch. What's more 9 months of pregnancy? Thus we honour Mother Mary for carrying the Living Word of God. The sacredness and holiness of the Old Ark was evident by Uzzah's slaying, what's more the New Ark which is carrying Jesus.
5. Jesus the King of Kings bestowed Queenship on His mother Rev 12 :1
A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head.
This woman is Mary because she is in heaven where God is. The only human being God will allow Queenship in heaven is Jesus's mother - the Queen Mother of the King of Kings. This woman is not the Church as some Protestants claim because in subsequent verses.Rev 12 : 2 to 5 this woman gave birth to a son which will rule all nations and whom the devil wanted to harm but couldn't. The only human that can stand up to the devil is Jesus.
REV 12 : 2 to 5
And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.
And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.
And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.
And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne
6. We honour Mother Mary because we are grateful to her for saying Yes to God, when she was still an unmarried woman but had to bear Jesus, thereby being instrumental in the human race's salvation.
7. We honour Mother Mary because she was obedient to God and is our model of ideal discipleship. She didn't ask for God's detail operation plan, what's going to happen to her when she is found pregnant in old conservative Jewish society, how to answer to Joseph when he found out she is pregnant before their marriage, how is Mary going to live on financially if Joseph divorce her, what role is her son going to undertake etc. Nothing. No details needed. No assurances needed. Just a simple yes to God. And God is pleased with faithful disciples just as He is pleased with Abraham for his faithfulness.
For these reasons, Mother Mary deserves our honour - just as how the Early Church honours her for 1500 years till the Reformation. The Orthodox Christians who broke away from the Catholic Church honours Mother Mary.
Martin Luther, the Father of the Protestant Reformation loves Mother Mary, honours her and prays the rosary.
The following are Luther 's sermons on Mary :
The veneration of Mary is inscribed in the very depths of the human heart. (Sermon, September 1, 1522).
[She is the] highest woman and the noblest gem in Christianity after Christ. ..She is nobility, wisdom, and holiness personified. We can never honor her enough. Still honor and praise must be given to her in such a way as to injure neither Christ nor the Scriptures. (Sermon, Christmas, 1531).
No woman is like you. You are more than Eve or Sarah, blessed above all nobility, wisdom, and sanctity. (Sermon, Feast of the Visitation. 1537).
One should honor Mary as she herself wished and as she expressed it in the Magnificat. She praised God for his deeds. How then can we praise her? The true honor of Mary is the honor of God, the praise of God's grace.. .Mary is nothing for the sake of herself, but for the sake of Christ...Mary does not wish that we come to her, but through her to God. (Explanation of the Magnificat, 1521).
Luther goes even further, and gives the Blessed Virgin the exalted position of "Spiritual Mother" for Christians, much the same as in Catholic piety:
It is the consolation and the superabundant goodness of God, that man is able to exult in such a treasure. Mary is his true Mother, Christ is his brother. God is his father. (Sermon. Christmas, 1522)
Mary is the Mother of Jesus and the Mother of all of us even though it was Christ alone who reposed on her knees...If he is ours, we ought to be in his situation; there where he is, we ought also to be and all that he has ought to be ours, and his mother is also our mother. (Sermon, Christmas, 1529).
Catholics honour Mother Mary but we also believed that Christ is still the only mediator with God. Christ and Christ alone.
@Carissa Hanson. A simple answer why Mary is born sinless is because Jesus is holy and sinless. Mary carried Jesus in her womb for 9 months. So Mary as a carrier of a pure, holy Jesus needs to be sinless to carry Jesus. Look T 2 Sam 6:6 Uzziah was killed by God because Uzziah touched the Ark of the Old Covenant carrying the Word of God in stone (10 commandments) . So Jesus as the New Covenant, the Word of God in flesh was carried in the New Ark of the Covenant which needs to be kept holy and sinless just like the Ark of the Old Covenant.
@@jeremiahong248 thank you for the information I probably need it anyway but my question had to do more with is there a division in the Lutheran Church like are they divided because my teacher had taught that nowhere in the Bible did it say Mary didn’t have sin and that that was not a Lutheran doctrine but evidently from the history here it was so I was just trying to decipher if there are different Lutheran churches that teach different doctrines but once again thank you for your information because it gives more clarification on that although I do believe the doctrine of Mary without saying thank you very much have a blessed advent and a merry Christmas

@@carissahanson9887 Yes there is division within the Lutheran Church. You can Google it. Some Lutherans believe in things that other Lutherans don't.
I believe you attend the Lutheran Church ?
Please refer to the following link which shows you the beliefs of the Early Church. Many are ordained and taught by the Apostles or their discipleship Mark and Timothy so they knew what Jesus really taught. There is only 1 interpretation as God doesn't double talk. So what the early Church really believed is a guide of the real interpretation if we need to resolve differences.

As always, a great video, Bryan.
As a bit of info, there is another misconception Protestants have about the Immaculate Conception. Many of us have been taught that the Immaculate Conception meant that Mary, herself, was born of a virgin.
In fact, this is what I thought it meant until just last week! Out of curiosity, I watched a video by Trent Horn that explained what the teaching actually taught.
Ah well, one more thing I thought about Catholicism that was wrong!

@@queenofhearts7726 I appreciate the thought. I did download the Catechism of the Catholic Church, to see what it says. That is a BIG book! I wasn’t expecting that. I’m on page 50, or so. It will take awhile to get through that!
Unbiblical. The Bible records that Mary offering two turtle doves for a sin offering.
It is biblical. Hence the video. The Bible also showed Jesus being baptized into a sinner's baptism.
Thank you for your wonderful videos. Could you possibly do a video on Marian apparitions? I’m very uncomfortable with them, and feel uneasy towards them. I don’t believe in them to be frank...
That will be a topic that we do in the future. Thanks for the suggestion. As a Catholic, you are not required to believe in them.
When Mary appeared in Fatima in 1917 she said if people don’t repent of their sins a worse war than World War One would break out so she was right when she predicted world war 2. She said that if Russia wasn’t consecrated to her Immaculate Heart it would spread it’s errors throughout the world. The Bolshevik revolution started in 1918 and she was absolutely correct. I don’t think that Russia has yet been properly consecrated to her as she requested to this day. There were about 150,000,000 people that were slaughtered on the twentieth century due to communism which started in Russia in 1918. Then she performed the miracle of the sun on October 13 1917 in front of 70,000 people where they watched it dance in the sky, spin and throw all kinds of different colors while it was spinning and then people panicked and thought it was going to crash into the earth.
When she appeared in Kibeho Rwanda in 1982 she told 3 Catholic school girls that if people didn’t get rid of the hate in their hearts that rivers of blood would flow. 1,000,000 Tutsi’s were machete’d and shot to death by the Hutu tribe in Rwanda in 1994. She accurately predicted that genocide 12 years before it happened.
Don’t be afraid of the Blessed Mother. You can never love her more than Jesus does. He gave her to the whole world from the Cross when He said Woman behold thy son, and to the beloved disciple (which all Christians are) behold thy mother, and from that day forward the Beloved Disciple took her into his home. He wants all of us to take her into our homes as our mother. It was extremely important for Him to say this because he was suffocating to death as He said it.
Your saying that God protected Mary from sin , that is nowhere in scripture.
Feel free to watch the video. We mentioned a few scriptures. What's not in scripture is the Bible Alone.
If it was so early a doctrine as you said, why is it that the Orthodox church does not believe in the doctrine of immaculate conception? As we all know that the Great Schism happened in 1054, it is natural that the Orthodox church should have this doctrine in their dogma.
So....is mary still alive?
Or, when and how did she die?
No, she is in heaven.
Dear Bryan, thank you for recommending this.
I still find myself torn in two. You know my stand. I believe we have NO idea what Jesus really wanted us to do because of the scant historical record and that the gospels which were written after Paul who wrote the first books of the new testaments are necessarily tainted by his views. He who never met Jesus.
I think the idea of the immaculate conception dogma is to satisfy the Hellenistic subconscious that Paul reached out to. They were pagan and were used to a pantheon. Just my opinion.
The Jews then wouldn’t have needed it. The stricter then, as today, were looking for a messiah from the house David. And I think the Heck, I wouldn’t have needed it, if the son of God revealed himself to me as the son of a sinner man junkie, I would believe it based on *merit.* and I believe Jesus’s first followers KNEW he wasn’t of David’s line but still didn’t care. He came from Galilee. He was good, more than good, that’s good enough sure.
I also don’t think the old testaments support the immaculate conception ie that genesis 3:15 has anything to do with Mary. If you’re reading the Septuagint I’d suggest reading the Hebrew.
More regarding Mary.
Do you find it odd that of four gospels, only two address the nativity, and they both contradict each other?
One (Luke) says they came from Nazareth for a census which historically has less basis for having happened than Jesus has for existing. The concept of such a census is ridiculous anyway, you’d want to know who was living in your area of jurisdiction and Nazareth and Bethlehem.. well, one’s in Judea, the other isn’t.
Matthew does not say where they originate but I imagine he tries to portray Joseph coming from Bethlehem but completely contradicts Luke’s account by saying they flee to Egypt, probably for many months to years.
Which one is? Flee to Egypt or not? If they cannot get these basic facts right, and the other 2 remain silent, how can we be sure of the virgin birth. How can we be sure this is not another one of Paul’s ideas?
*How can you be sure the doves were sacrificed so?*
Note also the gradual change from the Subtle Mark to the Overt John about Jesus being God, the christology imo has a distinct different flavour.
What is likely, taking Mark as the earliest gospel and hopefully the *least influenced* by umm. *evolving ideas* ... is that he was not really concerned about his birth, is that they were from around Galilee in Judea.
*And there was probably a school of thought that did not think this was important.*
John. Everything.
And .... we have Paul. Not Jesus’s own brother’s words (James) nor Peter’s.
Who was made to look after Mary when he died. Why didn’t he say something.
And curiously, if he was to rise again, why would he appoint someone to look after his mother?
All is not what it seems, my brothers and sisters. It is 2 thousand years, we only really have Paul’s story, I contend. Debate?
How, under the sun, can you say that the woman in Genesis 3:15 is Mary, and then have to do a 180 degree turn, knowing that God is definitely speaking to Eve in verse 16?
Because just as this verse is a foreshadowing of the Messiah, the New Adam, it's also a foreshadowing of the New Eve. The Bible is replete with this type of typology.
@@CatholicTruthOfficial Reminds me of Scott Hann
@@CatholicTruthOfficial
I do not recall you using foreshadows and types on this topic of Genesis 3:15 in your video. There is a difference between staying in context with who God was actually speaking to in this chapter and using typology to indicate a future event. Actually, the entire Old Testament points to the coming of Messiah Jesus (John 5:39) "......testifies of ME."
"The enmity" spoken of in verse 15 is the serpent's seed of deceit versus those who would be also born of fallen Eve; yet, having been made righteous before God through faith; for the scripture says that "Jesus (the Truth) was slain before the foundation of the world."
The foreshadowing and type in the above Genesis passage has its place here, as does the entire Old Testament, but the emphasis must be always pointing to Jesus (John 5:39). Yes, there are inferences in the OT pertaining to Jesus being born of a woman; however, a woman who was born of the fallen seed of Eve, and chosen by God to bring forth a male child born of the seed of God without a fallen nature.
@Brian Farley
To say that Mary was born without the stain of original sin---and remained sinless---is to say that she was not born of the fallen seed of Adam. If Mary was not born of the fallen seed of Adam, then Mary's mother was not either; and right on down the line. If what you are espousing is true, then Mary takes-on the God incarnate mode, because only God is sinless.
Then again, the Roman Catholic Church has been on a crusade for years to place Mary above all other mighty men and women of God found from Genesis to Revelation.
Jesus never did anything of the kind concerning His mother. He went as far as making a point of it in Luke 11: 27&28.
The woman in the crowd wanted to make a strong point about the power of the women's role of bringing forth children. Could you imagine how taken aback this woman was, when Jesus responded the way He did about His mother? Jesus' response was revealing (to all who were within the sound of His voice) that no one is more blessed than the one who hears the word of God and keeps it.
In as much as Mary is called blessed among all women, because of being chosen by God to bring forth salvation; it surely does not include blessed among all people.
@Brian Farley
The religious heirarchy of Jesus' day felt and said to Jesus the same.things that you just said .
They thought He was arrogant; yet, He simply spoke the word of God. I am sure that you know the rest of the story about what they eventually did to Him.

Unbiblical teachings, with no scriptural basis, fails to understand why you try to bestow her something and equate her to God and parrot such blasphemy.
Not uniblical, hence the video. The only thing that is not biblical is sola scripture up. The foundation of the protestant religions and it's not even biblical.
@@CatholicTruthOfficial Satan also hates the word of God
The Bible doesnt teach that Mary was born free from sin. Grace means Gods favor on you. The angel was saying Gods favor is on you. Nobody besides Jesus completely obeyed the Father.Mary went to the temple and made sin offerings.Marvel not that you must be born again.
Yes, Mary was free from sin. You should probably try watching the video. And yes, well Mary is favored, the word that the angel used for Mary goes far deeper than that and is used in a singular way only for Mary. It's not found anywhere else in the Bible.
So, Mary had to go to the temple to make a sin offering. She was required to under Jewish law. If she didn't, she would have sinned, sooo...
@@CatholicTruthOfficial I did watch the video.Its total opinion.
@@CatholicTruthOfficialwhy didnt Jesus go to the temple and make a sin offering? If Mary was without sin and Jesus wass without sin that makes Jesus a sinner because he never made the sin offering so He is not qualified to take away the sin of the world.Remember the sacrificial lamb had to be perfect, meaning Jesus was perfect,without sin.He testified to that too.
@@CatholicTruthOfficial I agree with you Bryan. Jesus was baptised but it doesn't mean he needed to wash away HIS sins, the same way (with the same logic) Blessed Mary's sin offering doesn't mean she sinned. But ppl who don't want to believe it will not anyway. God bless xx

"If you were God and could create your mother…" that's a good one! It makes the dogma jump of the paper and somewhat coming to life!
This guy is talking but not pointing to any scripture to support his mistake that Mary was sinless. 100% against what the Bible teaches.
Actually he did quotes Scriptures. Gotta watch the whole video. ;)
@@CatholicTruthOfficial And the reason you absolutely positively refuse to point to any scripture (but keep repeating video, video) is because you KNOW there is zero, zero scripture in the Bible that says Mary was sinless. None. I’m not interested in someone talking about scripture that they can pour their own meaning into. It’s really easy, where in the Bible does it say Mary was sinless????? Such deception. Just another scheme from Satan to remove attention from Jesus.

We don't understand the question.
Gen 3:15 talks about the curses that God pronounced upon his creatures (Adam, Eve and Lucifer) for breaking his law... where is Mary from in all this my dear brother???
She's the woman talked about in the verse. It's not easy being talked about because she already participated in Satan's seed which is sin. The woman was with the Redeemer and not Satan. So the woman would not be easy. It's a foreshadowing of Mary just as the Redeemer would be Jesus.
Where is Bible evidence that Mary did not die? Mary was full of grace in the same way we all are by Gods grace.
Sorry no original sin, no virgin births try and broaden your horizons and read different fairy tales
You said immaculate conception is that Mary was “born” without original sin. Or is it that Mary was “conceived” without original sin? I think there is a difference.

Mary was not sinless . she was born of Earthly parents and sin passed upon all . No where in the Scriptures does it say she was sinless . Being full of Grace does not mean she was sinless . and she died like all mankind . what is Grace , it is undeserved love of God nothing to do with being free of sin . This man is an biblical illiterate . He believes every thing the apostate Catholic Church says and most o it is not found in the scriptures and there for not of God . and baptism dose not save you , you are dead in sin . and the only way to have life is to be quicken by the spirit or made alive . water does not regenerate or make new . you must be born from above and become a new creation in Christ .

How do we know 1 Corinthians has inspired? Paul said all scripture is inspired, but how do we know the books in the Bible are scripture?
@@CatholicTruthOfficial Satan loves to cast doubt on the word of God
Was Mary's mother sinless to usher in Mary?
No. Jesus is the ONLY one who deserved the privilege of being conceived by a woman completely free from sin because NO ONE in the entire universe is infinitely Holy as He is (except God the Father and the Holy Spirit). To say that Mary herself also deserved to be conceived in the womb of a sinless woman amounts to putting Mary on the same level as Jesus Christ which is unacceptable
Dang. So misinterpreting scripture
Prove it. ;)
I don’t really agree with the whole sinless Mary thing. To be honest I believe Catholics sometimes read into things that aren’t there (like this). Good thing it has nothing to do with our salvation! Excited for Heaven when all these things will be fully understood. When no one argues about anything!
Exactly. Good word for it is eisegesis. They put their meaning into the text, and it has caused great anxiety.
I also agree that they see things which are not in the Bible and force the ideas to concur with their doctrines.
Grace means undeserved favour not sinfulness.
Furthermore what a Christian needs is to believe Jesus as the Saviour.
"Therefore hear the Word of The Lord, for thus says The Lord: Do not be deceived; let satan gain no foothold. For there is but One God and One Savior, One Deliverer in the Day of Wrath. Again, I say to you, do not be deceived. Satan can not change his visage and become man. He is what he is, and remains who he became to this day. He is heylel, son of the morning, with a heart like the abyss. And those fallen are like him, corrupted by those same things which consume him.
Yet satan has indeed appeared to men, sending them strong delusions, preying upon that which already dwells within them; even imitating Mary, the mother of The Messiah, deceiving those who remain ignorant of the Truth, leading a multitude away into false worship and idolatry. So then satan only imitates the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he tells a lie, he is only doing what comes natural to him, because he is a liar and the father of all lies. Thus he does indeed wear many disguises, and delights in leading My people astray. For by clever words and dark speeches he bears false witness, leading multitudes away into faiths which are dead - FALSE RELIGIONS! DETESTABLE PRACTICES! ABOMINATIONS!
YahuShua HaMashiach is The Gift, He is The Only Way; there is salvation in no other, nor any other name under Heaven by which you must be saved. Thus ALL religions of this world are an abomination in the eyes of The Most High God! Every one of them pollutes the land and spreads forth like a plague! Behold, even those who bear My name have become like them! Not one worships Me in spirit or in truth, all have gone astray! Corrupt workers, arrogant assemblies, you worship yourselves!
Yes even you, O churches of men, have corrupted the Word of Truth, and do not cease from polluting My name! You misuse My name and abuse My Word, subverting the people through false doctrine and filthy tradition! You encourage them to forsake My Commandments and ignore My every decree! In the name of The Holy One, you cause My people to sin! By permission, UNDER GRACE, you encourage them to transgress The Commandments of God, teaching and preaching to them another messiah, adding to and taking away from My Word to uphold your own way, and all for the sake of unjust gain! Shall I not discipline you for these things?! Shall I not bring down My hand hard upon you?! Shall I not come forth swiftly and wipe ALL religions from the face of the earth?!
Yet true faith has a name, and true religion yields fruit of the same: A Bride who obeys the voice of her Husband and walks in His ways, a people worthy to be called by His name. Yet the light has departed from the churches of men, The Word of Truth is hidden from their eyes. All is corrupt and dying, darkness fills the earth.
And so The Word was sent, and came into
The world to seek and to save the lost...
And behold, He is coming again, to deliver His own,
All those who believe and live by The Word;
And to destroy those who fight against The Word,
For they too are bound by The Word...
For The Word stands forever...
Immovable and everlasting, unchangeable,
Having complete authority over all things,
The light and the dark, the righteous and the wicked...
Indeed, the whole universe is set within
The confines of His will, giving heed to Him
Who created it, forever and ever...
Amen."

All have sinned and fallen short. None are ritcheous, no, not one... you quote these scriptures, and more, yet miss the thing they declare. We are all sinners...including babies,thats the whole point. If it were possible to be sinless then Jesus would not have had to die for us but continue with the 10 commandments only . The commandments (law) was given to show us that salvation by oursevles was impossible, that we are all (the whole of humanity on the whole earth for all history)!
Mary was a sinner, she admits as much in her prayer and with her conversation with the angel Gabriel. This teaching in light of scripture is therefore false no matter how much you try to explain it. We are all full of Grace through God's favour through the work of His Son but not through ourselves, as you said, so how can you also say she was sinless.
Mary, the new ark?... really?..
Again, I pray The Holy Spirit will lift the Catholic tradition scales off your eyes so you can see The Lord's heart in His scriptures alone.
Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?
Luke 1:34
If Mary had immaculate conception, this question was baseless
Mary, mother of Jesus received God's grace. She is daughter of God. Not mother of God.
Don't twist the word of God.
You are mistaken. The Immaculate conception has nothing to do with whether or not Mary had any intimate relations with a man. The Immaculate conception refers to the sinless conception of Mary in her own mother's womb. It is not referring to the conception of Jesus in Mary's womb. When she asked the angel: "how can this be since I know not man?", She wasn't denying her immaculate conception -- she was simply trying to find out how she was going to have a child without knowing a man. (And that is why the angel went on to explain to her that it was going to happen through the power of the Holy Spirit)
Secondly, Mary is the Mother of God because Jesus is EQUAL to God since He has the exact same nature (i.e the divine nature) as His Father
@@jerome8950 Biblical?
@@kallungaljosephdaniel7579 of course it is biblical. Hebrews 1:3 says that Jesus Christ is the "EXACT expression" or the "EXACT copy" of the nature of God. The Greek word used here is "charakter" which means "being IDENTICAL to someone in EVERY aspect". This is the ONLY place in the Bible were that word "charakter" is used. Bible never used that word to describe any human being or angel EXCEPT Jesus Christ. This is because Jesus Christ is the ONLY one who is just like His Father in EVERY way (there is no attribute or characteristic that God has which Jesus doesn't have). That is why Jesus is EQUAL to God because His nature is EXACTLY identical to the nature of God the Father. Human beings in general are created in "image and likeness" of God but they DO NOT have the "charakter" of God i.e they are NOT exactly like God in every aspect, hence human beings are NOT EQUAL to God
@@jerome8950 Jesus is God himself. Came to this world, became man, born of a virgin, ,to redeem the human race from their sin.
Catholics calls her the mother of God because she gave birth to Jesus and since Jesus is God that would make her the mother of God. She didn't create God but only gave birth to Him. Pretty simple to understand
Nice, Mary didn't require a Savior, neither did Mary said, God my Savior.
In the bible there is no scripture that clearly says Mary was sinless, but Quran do.
So the immaculate conception of Mary comes straight from Qur'an.

Why does Mary need a savior? If she is without sin she does not need to be Saved.
Mary did need a saviour in a sense that she was preserved from sin since her conception that is what this whole mary is born without sin means
Mary never sinned because she was not born with original sin she was saved
The salvation of Jesus was for all mankind. As mother Mary is a human being, she also needed to be saved.. the child within the womb (Jesus) was her salvation.. a specially made woman for a singular purpose of bringing jesus into the world..

The unholy Pope Pius IX, lied and said this on the Immaculate Conception:+
“Above all creatures did God so loved her that truly in her was the Father well pleased with singular delight. Therefore, far above all the angels and all the saints so wondrously did God endow her with the abundance of all heavenly gifts poured from the treasury of his divinity that this mother, ever absolutely free of all stain of sin, all fair and perfect, would possess that fullness of holy innocence and sanctity than which, under God, one cannot even imagine anything greater, and which, outside of God, no mind can succeed in comprehending fully.” THIS IS BLASPHEMHY. NO WEHRE IN GOD'S WORD. CHRIST IS ONLYH ONE far above all angels
Ephesians 1:21-23 "Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all."
Hebrews 1:5-8 says " For to which of the angels did He ever say: “You are My Son, Today I have begotten You”? And again:“I will be to Him a Father, And He shall be to Me a Son”? But when He again brings the firstborn into the world, He says:“Let all the angels of God worship Him.” And of the angels He says: “Who makes His angels spirits And His ministers a flame of fire.” But to the Son He says: “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; a scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your kingdom".1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
Hebrew 1:1- God at sundry times spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, IN THESE LAST DAYS SPOKEN UNTO US BY HIS SON, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high; Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they. For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son? And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him."
Falsehood.

Mary the mother of Jesus was a godly and blessed woman, but she was not without sin. Jesus was the only human without sin. Jesus “had no sin” (2 Corinthians 5:21). “In him is no sin” (1 John 3:5). Nothing of the sort is ever said of Mary or anyone else. Jesus Christ is fully human, but He is also fully God (John 1:1). He is the Lamb of God, “without blemish or defect” (1 Peter 1:19), a title and description no other person can claim.
As an ordinary part of the human race, born into the world the ordinary way, Mary was not without sin. Romans 3:23 teaches that all have sinned and fall short of God’s glory, and there is nothing in the Bible to suggest that Mary was an exception to this rule. The apostle John wrote, “If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word is not in us” (1 John 1:8-10). The “we” in this passage includes Mary, the mother of Jesus. To claim Mary is without sin is an example of “deceit.”
To help bolster their teaching that Mary was sinless, the Roman Catholic Church has invented the doctrine of the Immaculate Conception (formally accepted as Catholic dogma in 1854). According to this false teaching, Mary was, from her very conception in her mother’s womb, “preserved free from all stain of original sin.” That is, Mary had no sinful nature. This doctrine is neither biblical nor necessary. The virgin-born Christ Jesus was free from the stain of original sin, but it was not necessary for His mother to be-or His grandmother-or His great-grandmother, etc. How far back would we have to go to insure Jesus’ perfection, if it were necessary for Mary to be sinless?
Rather than teach that Mary was sinless, the Bible gives evidence that she was a normal person with a normal person’s need of salvation. In Mary’s praise-filled, humble prayer in Luke 1, she says, “My spirit rejoices in God my Savior” (verse 47). If she were sinless, she would not have needed a “Savior.” Mary receives a gentle rebuke from Jesus in John 2:4, which hardly seems fitting if she were sinless.
Catholicism also teaches that the reference to Mary being “highly favored” (Luke 1:28) and one who was “blessed . . . among women” (Luke 1:42) supports the view of a sinless Mary. However, neither verse makes such a claim. It is possible to be blessed and know God’s favor without being sinless. Catholic teaching also describes Mary as “full of grace,” but that phrase is found only twice in the Bible, and neither time is it in reference to Mary. Jesus is said to be “full of grace” (John 1:14), and so is Stephen (Acts 6:8).
The veneration of Mary in Catholicism and some other liturgical religious systems has led to the unbiblical claim that Mary was without sin. Other unbiblical doctrines have also cropped up around the view of a sinless Mary: the teaching that she was a perpetual virgin, that she hears and answers our prayers, that she shares in our redemption, and that she is a mediator of grace, to name a few. Those who revere a sinless Mary are being “led astray from . . . sincere and pure devotion to Christ” (2 Corinthians 11:3).
The Mary Cult is definitely not about Miriam the Mother of Jesus from every indication, it must be another Mary 😂😂😂
@@39knights
MARY WAS A SINNER, NEEDED A SAVIOR, HAD MORE THAN FOUR CHILDREN, AND IS NOT MEDIATRIX.
Proof of her being a sinner
Firstly, all men have sinned, including Mary, and fallen short of the glory of God [Rom 3:23], and through one man sin entered the world and death spread to all men [Rom 5:12]. King David writing in Psalms says that he was brought forth in iniquity and in sin when his mother conceived him - biblical proof of mankinds sinful nature from the time of conception. [Psa 51:5]. According to the law of Moses every mother that conceived, either a male or female, had to after an appointed time offer sacrifices to God: one as a burnt offering, and one as a sin offering [Lev.12]. Mary, after conceiving Jesus made these sacrifices in accordance and obedience to the Law God gave to Moses. This is clearly indicated to us in the book of Luke chap. 2 ver. 21-24, as Mary applies this very observance as is required of every Jewish woman who conceives her first born son. Read Leviticus 12 is first, understand what is being said, then read Luke 2:21-24. Once reading and understanding what is being said, it is clear that the offering Mary offers makes according to ... law of the Lord, A pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons. [Lk.2:24], ... the one for the burnt offering, and the other for a sin offering: ... [Lev. 12:8]. The sin offering Mary gives is sufficient evidence Mary's carnality.
In need of a Saviour
Other proof of Mary being a sinner is found when Mary declares the need of a saviour. One is only in need of a saviour when realizing they are helpless and hopeless; that God in Christ having paid the penalty for the sins of mankind, is the One in Whom we are able to find redemption. [Col.1:12-14]. Mary also said, "My soul doth magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour" [Luke 1:46,47]. Again, Mary admits her estate as the handmaiden of God and not "Mother of God". Admiting her estate as a handmaiden because God used her instrumentally as a vessel to conceive the Lord Jesus Christ. By Mary s own words, she removes any idea of pre-emanance so as not to assume exaltation above God s calling upon her life. "For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed" [Luke 1:48].
Had more than four children
The Scriptures catergorically state the family Jesus had, and that Mary did conceive after the birth of Jesus. She never remained a virgin, and can never be considered "immaculate" as the Roman Catholic Church has exalteded her to be. "Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas? And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then hath this man all these things?" (Mat 13:55,56).
Not Mediatrix
Mary as mediatrix is unfounded in Scripture. Scripture tells us who makes intercession for the saints before the Father.
There are two mediators in Scripture, who are:
Firstly, the Lord Jesus Christ.
By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.
And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to
continue by reason of death: But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood. Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them. [Heb 7:22-25].
Secondly, the Holy Spirit.
Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. [Rom 8:26,27].
