Pope Continues Heresies About Mary

Continues Heresies About Mary
Proclaiming the Gospel Ministries]
"Pope Francis venerated the statue
of the Immaculate Conception on
December 8 and invited others to
join him. The statue was created in
1857 as a mark of the Roman Catholic
belief that Mary was conceived
without sin. "I ask you to
spiritually unite yourselves to me
in this pilgrimage, which expresses
filial devotion to our heavenly
mother," he said. The concept of the
"immaculate conception" was declared
by Pope Pius IX on December 8, 1844,
who issued a proclamation stating,
"The most Blessed Virgin Mary was,
from the first moment of her
conception, by a singular grace and
privilege of almighty God and by
virtue of the merits of Jesus
Christ, Savior of the human race,
preserved immune from all stain of
original sin."
[Mike Gendron Comment] The doctrine
of Mary's pure conception without
sin is pure heresy. Catholic
doctrine, not only teaches that Mary
was sinless, but that she has power
to save. The Catechism of the
Catholic Church (CCC)] teaches "Mary
did not lay aside this saving office
but by her manifold intercession
continues to bring us the gifts of
eternal salvation" (CCC, para. 969).
"The Immaculate Virgin, preserved
free from all stain of original sin,
when the course of her earthly life
was finished, was taken up body and
soul into heavenly glory, and
exalted by the Lord as Queen over
all things. In giving birth, you
kept your virginity. You conceived
the living God and, by your prayers,
will deliver our souls from death" (CCC,
para. 966). Read more of Mike's

Response to comment [from a Catholic]: "Who has the authority to declare what is heresy? Isn't that the the pope's job?"
Mary worship
is idolatry (Ex 20:3).
See:
No Mary Worship
"Who said we worship Mary?"
If you are not
taught to worship Mary, what's all
that worshipping of Mary about?
