Oga, be open to truth. The mother of Jesus "brothers" Joseph/Joses and James is Wife of cleopas called Mary. Mk.15:40, Jn 19:25.

So says Scripture.

You are a weasel. Catholics don't call Mary a saint. Where did you hear that? angry
What do you call her, then? God?
Somebody that you claim she never had sexual intercourse in her entire life.
Somebody that you beg to pray for you.
Somebody that you solicit her assistance to entreat Jesus on your behalf. What do you call her?

Why is Jesus referred to as Mary's FIRSTBORN son according to the Bible book of Luke 2:6-7 if Mary never had other children apart from Jesus?

Waiting for your answer.

Mary has no child apart from Jesus, that is why she still refer as Virgin.
IN the Hebrew, there is no clear distinction BTW cousins, brother and sons. Those u see mentioned, are his cousins not brothers.

Read Matthew 1:25.

Mary had four other sons, Joseph, James, Jude, and Simon. Because of the virgin birth, Joseph was not the father of Jesus so these were the half brothers of Jesus. The last three mentioned are not to be confused with those who were disciples of Jesus by the same name. Here are some passages where the other sons of Mary by Joseph are mentioned (Matt. 12:46; 13:55; Mark 6:3; John 2:12; 7:3, 5, 10; Acts 1:14; 1 Cor. 9:5; Gal. 1:19).

What i find with a lot of Catholics is that they do not read the Bible. Many of them are in Catholic only because it is the religion of their parents. Many do not even understand some of Catholic doctrines and so are surprised when Bible students ask probing questions. They are like why are you questioning the status quo.
Mary was a noble woman blessed by God to be mother of his only begotten Son Jesus. She was a virgin up until she gave birth to Jesus. But being a woman properly married to Joseph she had other children who are well named in the Bible - male and female. Jesus being her first, Jesus is rightly referred to as Mary's FIRSTBORN son. Luke 2:6-7. This is the undeniable truth. Dont add or take away from God's inspired word the Bible. Visit www.jw.org to learn more.

https://bible.org/question/did-mary-have-any-children-other-jesus-if-so-how-can-she-be-eternal-virgin
Mary had no other child outside Jesus...let's go with at least one of your scriptural passages where you claimed that Sons of Mary were mentioned...Gal1:18-19.....It was talking about Paul and it reads: "Then after three years, I went to Jerusalem, to see Peter, and I stayed with him fifteen days. But I did not see other apostles except James the brother of the Lord." Now you claim James is from Mary's womb.. Let's analyze whom this James is: The scriptures says St Paul saw Peter and no other apostle except James which shows this James is an apostle. He was also called the brother of the Lord. Now let me prove he wasn't born of Mary: in Luke 6:12-16 where Jesus called his apostles we notice that there are two James there one of them is James sons of Zebedee (Mt4:21) the other James son of Alphaeus....now you see the person called James the brother of the Lord is from either Zebedee or Alphaeus and and not The Virgin Mary or Joseph so how come you say James was a son of Mary? And this James was also called the brother of Jude in Jude1:1 go and read your Bible... Let's examine Mt13:55 or Mk6:3 where the scriptures recorded the so called brothers of Jesus....let's examine them....their names James Joseph Simon and Jude....Jn19:26 tells us there were two women at the foot of the cross of which one of them was a Sister Mary.... Who was married to Cleopas now Mt27:55-56 makes it clearer it says that these women were: Mary Magdalene, Mary the Mother of James and Joseph and the Mother of Zebedee's children. So you see that James and Joseph was from another Mary and as I said before Jude confirms he is the brother of James and in Luke 5:10 we see a Simon who was always with the sons of Zebedee mentioned only as an apostle and not a son of Mary. I challenge you to show me a place in the bible that says that Mary had other children or had other sons whom she named James Joseph Simon and Jude or show me where the scriptures said that Mary had another pregnancy after Jesus was born.... Besides I hope you're aware that In Acts 1:14-15 which you mentioned that it says that the brothers of Jesus numbered approximately 120...could Mary have given birth to 120 children all at once? Think!!!!!

Oga, be open to truth. The mother of Jesus "brothers" Joseph/Joses and James is Wife of cleopas called Mary. Mk.15:40, Jn 19:25.

So says Scripture.
Mark 15: 40: Some women were watching from a distance. Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James the younger (who is a disciple of Jesus) and of Joseph (which means Joses in greek), and Salome.

Going by "your scripture" are u now telling us that mary of clopas was the carpenter's second wife?



These are totally different people from the brothers of Jesus (James, Joseph, Jude, Simon)

Jude and Simon weren't mentioned as sons of Mary of Clopas neither was Salome mentioned as one of the brothers of Jesus

I'm done abeg.

If the Bible is INCOMPLETE as you imply why did God SEAL it at the end. Read Revelation chapter 22:18,19. Dont take away from the Bible and dont add to it. Why? Because it is a COMPLETE book inspired by God the Most High over all the earth.

Its not too late to learn this
Go and read the lost books of the bible and browse about the Ethiopian bible.Also don't forget to read the apocryphal books and the deutercanonical books all these were part of the bible.Go and ask the council of Trent and nicea why these books were not canonized or king James why he did not add books like the book of enoch,maccabees and others.

Did any man called "Jesus " ever walk the face of this planet?

No evidence of that, except the the Bible.

No historical evidence. None. You can't use Bible to prove Bible.

Stop wasting your time on Bible stories.

Jesus, Mithra, Osiris, Horus, etc are all man made myths designed to control the mind of man. Period.

The only religion is " Do unto others as you will have others do unto you. " period.

It is a pity. So those books encourage you to pray through Mary and maintain that she remained a virgin after giving birth to Jesus.

How much are you familiar with the 66 books that make up the Bible that you have to go reading books that cannot claim any inspiration from God? Like i said earlier God sealed his inspired book the Bible urging everyone not to add or take away - Revelation 22: 18,19. Here God is presenting the Bible to us as a COMPLETE book and so it has proved to be for those who exercise faith in God and in his Only Begotten son Jesus Christ.
I encourage you to spend quality time to read the Bible daily - it means your life.
