Q. I understand why you would think Mary was saved prior to her birth, but it simply doesn’t line up with what Jesus said. He died once for all of us. The perfect sacrifice without spot nor blemish. It had to be a blood sacrifice! He didn’t die once for Mary and [...]

Some Early Fathers did NOT Believe in the Immaculate Conception

Mariano: My question as to how you know that doctrines that are particular to Roman Catholicism predated the canonized New Testament. Let us consider the “Sinlessness of Mary/Immaculate Conception of Mary.”
The following is a partial list of those who considered Jesus alone to be sinless, and or considered Mary to have sinned, and or [...]

Brothers and Sisters of Jesus

Q. Since Mary had other children, the brothers of Jesus, would they not be sinless also?

A. The brothers and sisters of Jesus are kinsmen of Jesus or else Joseph’s children by previous marriage. They are not full siblings of Jesus. They are either cousins or step-siblings. Mary gave birth to only one child and remained [...]

The “New” Dogma of the Immaculate Conception

J: First of all my friend, I am not anti_Catholic. The word is a bit harsh as it forments hatred, but let me assure you that i am not an anti-Catholic. My wife in fact is a Catholic.
BFHU: I apologize, I did not in any way mean to imply that you were anti-Catholic. And [...]

Dogma of the Immaculate Conception

Jeronie: I appreciate your response. However, I have some comments as well.
First, the Bible prophesied that the Messiah shall come from the line of David,

Therefore, if Mary came from [...]

Where Does Scripture Say Mary Was Sinless?

BFHU: This is taught by the Catholic Church, the Church that Jesus Christ founded.
JF:There’s no verse anywhere else in the Scriptures that says Mary is sinless.
Are you aware that you are clinging to a Protestant tradition? There is [...]

Why Did Mary Offer a Sin Offering?

Q. Mary, like every other Jew of her time, was born under law. In other words, under the old covenant, she had to obey the 10 Commandments and all the ceremonial laws given by God through Moses. For example, we see her observing the pregnancy and childbirth laws here:
(Luke 2:22-24) When the time of their [...]

Mary Was Human.

Below is a discussion based on a comment to Martin Luther & the Immaculate Conception

Comment: All honor and praise belong to Jesus and Jesus only.
Response: If you mean WORHIP, I agree we are to worship Jesus and not worship Mary. That would be idolotry and is condemned by the Catholic Church. Also, surely you [...]

Immaculate Conception

Q. Does the Doctrine of the Immaculate Conception refer to Jesus or Mary?

A. This doctrine refers to Mary. She was concieved in the normal way by her parents. It was immaculate because Mary was conceived without the stain of original sin passed on to the human race from Adam and Eve. Just as God created [...]

Can Humans be Sinless?

Bread From Heaven: Protestants forget that both Adam and Eve were created without sin. Most of the Angels did not sin and people in Heaven do not sin and that does not make any of them God. So sinlessness is a human trait that God originally bestowed upon human beings. It was also His desire [...]
