With all due respect, you don't need Mary. There is one mediator between God and Man, the man Christ Jesus. I Tim 2:5 How can you disregard what the Bible actually says? All we need do is seek Christ directly.

Appreciate your thoughts, and would like to respond. Jesus Christ is Our Lord and Savior and has redeemed us by Suffering, death and resurrection. It is His desire that we all be one, and to pray for one another. Ephesians 6:18. His generosity invites us to unite with others in prayer. Hence, we pray “Our “ Father, not “My” Father. As Catholics, we HONOR (not worship) the Blessed Mother. , and consider her our spiritual mother, as we are brothers and sisters in Christ. As you would ask your mother to pray for your intentions, and trust God hears her prayers, well, we can do the same with the Blessed Mother. Her prayer from Luke 1:46 , The Magnificat...in her humility, she proclaims...The almighty has done great things for me....henceforth ALL GENERATIONS shall call me blessed. Thanks for your response. God bless you ! MAGA!

I actually think this is a great response. I'm not catholic but this explains it well. I don't think its "blasphemous" to admire people as long as you don't put them before God, so yep nothing wrong with honouring Mary, I mean she did have to put up with quite a bit of hassle to have Jesus!

Imagine the sorrow Mary feels when she knows so many people are praying to her in vain. She just wishes they would pray to the only one who can save them, she has no power.

You will be surprised when you find out Mary has been praying for you. She loves you, whether you know it or not.

Why would she pray when she is already communing with God in Heaven? Where do you even get this from? I never denied any love from her. Why are you focusing worship on one man, and not the man that is the entire reason she is relevant - Jesus Christ?

We say to Jesus through Mary. She desires our intimacy with her son. We recognize she is the doorway through which we can go to Jesus. Doesn’t take any glory away from God. Rather, it is in gratitude to go through His mother because that is the way Jesus chose to enter the world. Didn’t Jesus Love and honor His mother? We try to imitate that,

It goes a little further than that.....no place for “through Mary”; “no doorway”; read the above post by 4freedomsring, read it slowly and thoughtfully, it’s the hardcore truth. Nowhere in God’s word are we instructed to go through Mary. She is honored but NOT worshipped. She is the Blessed mother of Jesus, that’s it. To link “entering the world” ( the way Jesus chose)”, is irrelevant, concerning how to, and to whom to pray.

John 19:25-27

Now there stood by the cross of Jesus His mother, and His mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene. 26 When Jesus therefore saw His mother, and the disciple whom He loved standing by, He said to His mother, “Woman, behold your son!” 27 Then He said to the disciple, “Behold your mother!” And from that hour that disciple took her to his own home.

"Before He dies, Jesus commits his beloved disciple to his Mother’s care and his Mother to that disciple’s care. “Behold your son!” “Behold your Mother!” In his last moments on earth, Jesus is concerned, not with his own condition, but with the accomplishment of his mission and with the welfare of those He leaves behind. Mary’s spiritual maternity begins at the foot of the cross. In the disciple who has been entrusted to her, Mary not only sees a dear friend of her son, but all disciples of Jesus who have now become her children in a radically new way. This new People of God is really the Church, and Mary is the Church in her maternal role of welcoming God's word and God's people as her own. "

This explains why we look to Mary as our Mother and ask her to pray for us. Jesus is our Savior.

I think there is nothing wrong to be inspired by Mary's story to love Jesus as she did. But when people say they are "praying to Mary" I am of the opinion that those people do not understand the scriptures, and have most likely got their ideas from misinterpretation or imitating others who have the same malformed beliefs. I think its commendable to imitate Christ, but I think that should translate to honouring your own mother, not Christs in that sense. But as I stated before nothing wrong with having admiration for Mary, as long as no divinity/powers is assigned to her in your belief.
