italo: Stop pretending as though you don't already understand this matter. You tried to make Mary equal to God by making her an intercessor and mediator and giving her all manner of reference reserved only for God. I simply showed you that she and all other Saints are like God in nature and holiness but never never ever like God in power, authority, omniscience and the rest. italo: Just pretend as though you don't know that this Scripture you quoted said nothing whatsoever to refute my comment you bolded. |

ByfireByfire: Can the Saints see/hear what is happening on earth? ByfireByfire:Which one is it? Only the Holy Spirit and Jesus are mediators and intercessors...or The Holy Spirit, Jesus and believers? Are the Saints alive or dead? ByfireByfire: You need to learn what 'divination with the help of a witch' is. You're criticizing in ignorance. |

italo: Ofcosh not.. kindly tell me where else we can find things said by Jesus? And wait... why not follow the said he vividly said in the Bible before looking for some somewhere? |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by ByfireByfire: 11:08pm On Dec 14, 2015 |
italo: 1. A saint in heaven can see and hear what's happening on earth but not all at the same time. That will be omniscience which they don't possess. Stop putting me on repeat. If I just know you are playing games I cease to reply. 2. I made the matter very clear. The focal point is that Mary is neither of both which is what you should be bothered with. 3. The Saints have passed on to glory. They are alive in heaven. They are not alive on earth. When you are short of ideas to prove a point that doesn't exist you use subtle means to make me repeat myself. I don't mind this but I don't have the luxury of time to entertain this beyond a certain point. |

dhateeboi: God has many sons Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of God: Joh_1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. Joh_1:18 No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him. Joh_3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Joh_3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. Heb_11:17 By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, 1Jn_4:9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. |

ByfireByfire:So if those in eternity are not constrained by time and space then what constraints them according to you? |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by italo: 7:16am On Dec 15, 2015 |
ByfireByfire: You don't need to force a lie on us because your false argument is contradicting the Bible. You said Mary is not like God. The Bible said she is. The verse didn't mention "nature" or "holiness." You manufactured that. Even if it did, does God's nature exclude omnipresence? Also do you believe that Mary knows all? (be careful with your answer...so you don't contradict the Bible for the third time) ByfireByfire: Here's what you said:
Rev5:8 When he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell before the Lamb, each holding a harp and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. Heb12:22 But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable angels in festal gathering, 23 and to the assembly[g] of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven, and to God the judge of all, and to the spirits of the righteous made perfect, 24 and to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel. The above is evidence that all Catholics and their prayers do enter the presence of God, Angels and Saints at the same time. I just dunno why you expect me to believe you and disbelieve the bible. |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by italo: 7:21am On Dec 15, 2015 |
dhateeboi: If Jesus said things outside the bible and you don't know those things, then you cannot claim that he never said "Christianity" and "3-in-1 God." Period. |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by italo: 12:22pm On Dec 15, 2015 |
ByfireByfire: Can you show where the Bible said the bold. (I believe I haven't asked you this before, so I'm not making you repeat yourself) Do believers share in the Divinity of God? Does God's Divinity exclude his omnipotence, omniscience and omnipresence or does it include them? ByfireByfire: I see. You believe that Jesus who died and rose can intercede. You believe that the Holy Spirit can intercede. You believe that Christians on earth(who are still sinning) can intercede. But you believe that Christians who have gone to glory and now see God face to face cannot intercede. Lol. Saints are like angels. Do you believe that angels intercede? The 24 elders in Rev5:8 that are carrying our prayers to God. They're not interceding? |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by dhateeboi(m): 1:45pm On Dec 15, 2015 |
italo: You don't know those things and u can never claim that he said those things!! No proof that he said it and when there's isn't!! Y do or follow such things |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by italo: 2:03pm On Dec 15, 2015 |
dhateeboi: He never said that we should only use the words that he mentioned. If you think he did, show me where he said so. |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by dhateeboi(m): 2:41pm On Dec 15, 2015 |
italo: Lolz, I Thessalonians 5:21 :- Prove all things hold fast that which is good Why then do something out of ur self will? why do something when there's isn't a clear proof Jesus did it or want u to do it? And anything that is confusing, as in the bible said YES about something and equally NO in some other chapter.... To be free of errors, one should avoid them totally!! Never should a Holy book contain errors! |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by PastorAIO: 3:05pm On Dec 15, 2015 |
Ol boi, you are confusing yourself. First. Who told you that he did not test/examine/proof what he is talking about? Second. The statement is precisely about prophecies. The church is prophetic and people will prophesy things that are not in the bible. The passage says that such things should be tested and what is good should be kept. Third. The bible itself says in the last days God will pour out his spirit on all flesh and sons and daughters will prophesy and old people will dream dreams. So for you to reject such a prophecy which is from God because it is not in the bible is tantamount to rejecting God and even rejecting your precious bible which mentioned the opening of the floodgates of spirit. Spirits must be tested. If people properly tested spirits rather than spout nonsense like 'touch not my anointed' when their pastors and churches are criticised then Worldwide 'christianity' wouldn't be such a joke. dhateeboi: |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by italo: 3:12pm On Dec 15, 2015 |
dhateeboi: 1. Jesus never said we should not do something out of self will...or that we shouldn't do something if there's no clear proof that he commanded it in the bible.... 2. What we are doing is not confusing. It may be confusing to you though. 3. The bible doesn't contain errors. |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by dhateeboi(m): 3:23pm On Dec 15, 2015 |
italo: 1. you claim to follow jesus but u don't need his guidance or words from him before u do things regarding the religion? and u really follow jesus? and he has to tell u not to do things he didn't say b4 u know u shouldn't? 2. The bible do not contain errors, it only contain contradicting verses. right? |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by dhateeboi(m): 3:36pm On Dec 15, 2015 |
PastorAIO: 1. Does the bible describe how you'll get to know the real dreamers?? 2. Are u to follow the dreamers even when they oppose some things from the bible? 3. Y does the same Holy spirit tend to lead people or pastors differently? As the common quote of a canal mind can not understand the bible unless spirit filled. yet, spirit filled people tend to b directed differently by the same spirit 4. why do we not be somewhat direct a bit? a bit scientific? why holy spirit always? |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by italo: 3:57pm On Dec 15, 2015 |
dhateeboi: Jesus gave us his Church to guide us. He gave his Church the power to bind and lose. He gave his Church the Holy Spirit to guide the Church in teaching Jesus' truth. Jesus told his Church leaders: "he who hears you hears me." So following The Church = following Jesus. dhateeboi: No. |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by PastorAIO: 5:03pm On Dec 15, 2015 |
dhateeboi: Yes
Jesus opposed many things in the scriptures with the words: You have heard it said that ... so and so, BUT I SAY TO YOU ....
It is not the same spirit.
Even in scientific approach the ultimate guide is the Holy spirit. |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by dhateeboi(m): 6:02pm On Dec 15, 2015 |
PastorAIO: 1. Like seriously?? So all the dreamers we have nowadays are as described by the bible? 2. So even u can actually oppose jesus if the spirit guide u so?? But I guess u claim jesus to be God Was he then wrong? 3. Like seriously?? how to know d real one?? They all say different things, does that means only one could be correct, which? 4. Then why can't u proof Holy spirit scientifically? many arguments tend to end with; U can't understand, unless u have the Holy spirit is it that abnormal? |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by PastorAIO: 6:57pm On Dec 15, 2015 |
dhateeboi: Yes seriously So all the dreamers we have nowadays are as described by the bible? Your words, not mine. I'm talking about the dreams that is promised when the spirit is poured out on all flesh.
I have no idea what you're talking about here. How can the spirit from Christ oppose christ.
By the fruits.
Bingo!
You cannot even remain cogent. I said that even doing science is best directed by the Holy Spirit. I don't know what that has to do with proving the holy spirit by science. |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by johnw74: 11:14pm On Dec 15, 2015 |
dhateeboi: You are very confused try and understand the verses I posted and believe them. |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by Nobody: 8:59am On Dec 16, 2015 |
Only God can hear and answer prayers. Neither the angels nor Mary can. if you don't know, you aren't a Christian. italo: |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by Nobody: 9:03am On Dec 16, 2015 |
Yes, one billion angels can enter into the presence of ''GOD" at the same time "if" they pray in the spirit. That is why God is omnipotent, omnipresent and omniscient. italo: |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by italo: 10:15am On Dec 16, 2015 |
Millerz: So, according to you, when I pray, Mary and the Angels can't hear. Thank you. Can Mary and the Angels see what is happening on earth? Do you believe that we partake in God's divinity? Do you believe that God's Divinity includes his omnipotence, omniscience and omnipresence? |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by italo: 10:19am On Dec 16, 2015 |
Millerz:The question was: Do you believe that when 1 billion Catholics pray, we are all entering the presence of God, Jesus, Angels and Saints at the same time? |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by Nobody: 10:33am On Dec 16, 2015 |
And the answer is thus: one billion Christians can enter into the presence of GOD at the same time. Not the Presence of saints and angels but of God. italo: |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by Nobody: 10:48am On Dec 16, 2015 |
Do not put words into my mouth or twist my comment. God is the only one who can answer prayers. No one else can. Mary and the Angels can see us. Obviously as believers, we each have guardian angels. It is God that answers our prayers. The angels are mere messengers who God uses to deliver our requests unto us. italo: |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by italo: 10:58am On Dec 16, 2015 |
Millerz: OK. So Mary and the Angels can see us. Thank you. Can they also hear us? Can Mary and the Angels carry our prayers/requests to God and intercede for us? Also, you skipped these questions: Do you believe that we partake in God's divinity? Do you believe that God's Divinity includes his omnipotence, omniscience and omnipresence? |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by italo: 11:04am On Dec 16, 2015 |
Millerz: So you're saying the Holy Spirit was incorrect in the verse below? Heb12:22 But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable angels in festal gathering, 23 and to the assembly of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven, and to God the judge of all, and to the spirits of the righteous made perfect, 24 and to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel. |
Re: Why Mary Cannot Be An Intercessor. by Nobody: 11:57am On Dec 16, 2015 |
You are wrong and this verse has absolutely nothing to do with your question. The verse you just quoted talks about when we finally ascend to our eternal home in heaven, not while we:re still on earth. italo: |
