@H Cho is that another Pope quote? Sorry pal, the SCRIPTURES is the best way to defeat Satan... not "your free will." LOL GOD'S will be done, NOT YOURS. Begone Satan
I don't make comments on the internet so much, but this dear brother has been a huge blessing to my life. I am still evangelical, I was raised as one, son of a Pastor, who always taught me to love all Christian traditions, and like this, I started to read more about the doctrines of the Roman Catholic Church, which is the most important church -still- in my country, Chile, even though It seems to be very off, people don't go to mass as it was before, and many Catholics brothers don't know what they believe. For a while now, I know that the Eucharist is the blood and body of the Lord, I think I started to understand this in a historical way, but also during my times of prayers, the Lord show me that He is there, then I found the book of Dr Pitre about the eucharist which was a confirmation for me of that matter, I share this with my church and every day we are having more reverence to the Lord Supper. Now, maybe a few months started to realize the importance of Mary for the salvation plan of God, how she, by grace and her yes to the Lord, I want to learn more from her, before I was son against this kind of doctrine, but kinda now I see them more clearly, but it's not just an intellectual thing, it comes with peace in my heart. May God bless all people who seek the kingdom of God before everything else. Thank God for Dr Pitre, and how he has developed his gif his "charis" is definitely an example to follow.
This book is amazing, i actually started a notebook on it so i can regurgitate it at will as a former protestant and seventh day Adventist Mary was always the big hurtle for me, but now I feel i'm closer to my Spiritual mother every day ! Hail Mary!
@@maureenbanks3702 I will pray for him Maureen, i've been exactly where he is, just stay strong in your faith as my Wife did and hope and love and that will slowly show him the truth..
I finished this book a few months ago and mmmmmaaaaannnn, my mind was blown! As a Catholic convert, I simply don't understand why the protestant movement basically erased Mary from the plan of salvation. It's actually sad to imagine how redacted the protestant religion is. I am so blessed that God gave me the grace to convert to Catholicism; Catholicism is the fullness of the truth and I am closer to my Lord and Savior than I have ever been. I am blessed to be a member of the church Jesus established!
Only catholics clutching at straws nowadays to validate the earthly papal 1954 descision to name mary as queen of heaven will believe that out of context explanation of 45: 17. The whole song is a prophecy and meant to honourJesus in the final marriage of christ to the bride, ( the church). his loyal followers. Jesus is not going to marry his earthly mother. How ridiculous .
You got it wrong dude... the church declare something as dogmatic in the later years because first of all of you protestants spreading wrong teachings and confusion to other catholics as well. But in the early days of Christianity everyone knows and accepts she is the queen of heaven and earth and so the church does not need to declare it.

@@Michael-pw2td quote--You'll remain in error until you accept the interpretation of the Holy Spirit entrusted to the Catholic Church. unquote QUOTE that FROM THE BIBLE and NOT an opinion or tradition!!!! Who is the interpreter of Scripture? Scripture alone is the sole rule and norm for faith and life. Being the very Word of God in written form, the reformers also maintained that “Scripture interprets Scripture” which means that the Bible is its own interpreter. This is a profound concept to be sure. -----Who has the authority to interpret Scripture? As the very word of God, Scripture comes with the authority and sufficiency of God, and therefore Scripture is not subject to the interpretation of any man or body, but rather Scripture interprets itself. ----So, interpret these: -----Ex 20:4-6 4 “You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. 5 You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, 6 but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments. --Ex 20:8-11 “Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. 9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 10 but the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your male or female servant, nor your animals, nor any foreigner residing in your towns. 11 For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy. --Isaiah 58:13 “If you keep your feet from breaking the Sabbath and from doing as you please on MY HOLY DAY, if you call the Sabbath a delight and the Lord’s HOLY day honorable, and if you honor it by not going your own way and not doing as you please or speaking idle words, -----Acts 10:11-17 INTERPRET them!!! ***What DAY IS THE SABBATH? Let’s let the Catholic Church answer this one. After all, they have been studying it for millennia, and also convinced the world to change the day. So, what do they say? “Perhaps the boldest thing, the most revolutionary change the Church ever did, happened in the first century. The holy day, the Sabbath, was changed from Saturday to Sunday. “The Day of the Lord” (dies Dominica) was chosen, not from any directions noted in the Scriptures, but from the Church’s sense of its own power. The day of resurrection, the day of Pentecost, fifty days later, came on the first day of the week. So this would be the new Sabbath. People who think that the Scriptures should be the sole authority, should logically become 7th Day Adventists, and keep Saturday holy.” Sentinel, Pastor’s page, Saint Catherine Catholic Church, Algonac, Michigan, May 21, 1995 So, I’d say the Sabbath of the Lord is Saturday. The Sabbath of men is Sunday. Which do you want to follow?

Converted from Baptist to the Holy Catholic Church five years ago. If you are new to the Church or are considering converting, PRAY THE ROSARY DAILY. It has changed my life. It destroys that mortal sin you’ve been fighting for so long. It opens your heart so God can let massive amounts of grace flow into you. Mental prayer is a natural consequence of devotion to the Rosary. This is what it has done for me. Lord Jesus and Moma Mary, I love you!!
Rosary as the Blessed Virgin Mary said, the weapon against satan... God Almighty gave it to her Masterpiece, the Blessed Virgin Mary to use it against the devil.... satan flee and his little minions to the abysses of hell.. it is known as the sword against evil.... yes grap your sword and swing it towards the enemy they will all flee away with fear .. GOD , THANK YOU GOD FOR GIVING US YOUR MOTHER AS OUR MOTHER TOO AND FOR giving us her weapon, the rosary to fight against evil.... satan is no match to the Blessed Virgin MARY, it flee at her name let alone her sight !! haha amen

YOU: Hail Mary, full of grace(that's sinless) *ME: 1)). the Greek word for "grace" does NOT mean "sinless" -- it simply means "favor".* 2) The original Greek of Luke 1:48 is Mary saying that she's a SINNER being "favored/graced" by GOD. *3)). John 2:1-5 shows Mary committing the same Sin of Pride that Adam did in the Garden.* 4)). The Greek words for "full of Grace" is "pleris charis" as used to describe Jesus in John 1:14 -- those are NOT the same words used in Luke 1 for Mary.

Nothing new under the sun.....
@@veritasmuy2407 😂😂 No it doesn't, who told you that? Tapeinōsin? It means humble or lowly, it has nothing to do with sin. You think John 2 shows Mary committing pride? You can't be serious. Asking her Son to help another person is your definition of pride? You are horrible at exegesis. John mirrors the Genesis creation account in John 1&2. Unlike Eve, who brought about the fall of man, Mary as the new Eve brings about the redemption of man. "They have no wine." " *WOMAN* , what it that to me and to thee? My hour has not yet come" His mother saith to the waiters "Whatsoever he shall say to you, do ye." This doesn't show pride this show humility. She asks Jesus to help the wedding party that she is a guest at, if they ran out of wine it wouldn't make her look bad. And what does Jesus say? Woman( citing Mary as the woman of Genesis before the fall, who was still without sin and still a virgin) how does that concern me and you? He doesn't just say why does it matter to me but why does it matter to us. Showing how close of a relationship they shared. And that she knew what his ultimate fate was. Even though it wasn't his time Jesus still began His public ministry at the request of his mother. This shows that when Mary intercedes to her Son he acts.
Dr Pitre is definitely a "Doctor of the Church" in the same way as St Thomas Aquinas et al! One thing that occured to me watching this, during Dr Pitre's explanation of Mary as the New Eve - I haven't read the book, and I expect that someone a lot more learned than me has already said this in a book or lecture somewhere, but; At the start of the story, Adam appears first and then Eve, who is "born" from Adam through the intervention (or involvement) of God. And then they sin together. In order to complete the cycle as it were, not only must the New Adam and the New Eve be together at the moment of our salvation (rescue from the Fall) just as Dr Pitre describes in this talk, but the New Eve must appear in the story first, and the New Adam be born from her body via the intervention (involvement) of God - thus the Virgin birth following the Anunciation where Mary is made pregnant by the Holy Spirit. Just something that occured to me watching this talk, that the "reversal" or "mirroring" of the birth of Eve from Adam and Christ from Mary, were the two "bookends" of the story of Humanity between the Fall and the Salvation. Probably wrong though, I am not a scholar at all!
I believe that is what us Catholics have taught since the beginning. Though I do agree that it's beautiful that you are seeing the beauty of Jesus and Mary, as the New Adam and the New Eve! God bless you my friend! ⚘
Excellent Bible study on Jesus and his mother, the Blessed Mother of all Christians. Loving Mary is never an impediment for Catholics loving Jesus. We love Him even more because He shows us how to love and respect our own mothers. God bless you. Prods should listen with their heart. Pray for them. God bless you
quote---Blessed Mother of all Christians--unquote WRONG!!! A Christian is one that FOLLOWS the Teachings of Christ. Mary did that. But, Catholics DO NOT!!!
Thank you Dr Pitre for the excellent explanation. Now I could give a firm response to people that ask me about the Immaculate Virgin Mary our beautiful mother that I love. Mother Mary pray for us poor sinners and intercede for us Amen
WOW! Thank you so very much for this very easy to understand & clearly defined information. It will help so much to explain to our brothers & sisters who are still confused or uncertain with regard to Mary's role in the Catholic faith. AMEN
Awesome! Also the Rosary I can attest when prayed within one's heart, especially our Mother's Lady of Fatima devotion on the first Saturdays of each month, will lead to not only lavish a soul that genuinely seeks God's LOVE, with GRACE. Also through our Mother's GRACE, She Reveals Her Essence of Pure Motherhood in Her warm Consoling Comfort and Profoundly Immense Divine Heavenly PEACE that holds my entire being, extinguishing all fear and anxieties.✝️🙏🕊️⛪🐑📖🥰💞🌹✝️
Thank you so much. This is a very good video that helps people to understand the richness of our faith & to love our Lady more and more. I'm looking forward to watch the next episode. God bless you all!
If you want to know more amazing facts on Our Mother. Read a book by Frank M Rega: WHAT GOD IS BY NATURE, MARY IS BY GRACE. It is a compilation of the writings of Luisa Piccarreta on Mary.

Dr. Brant Pitre's been helping me a lot in deepening my faith, especially in understanding how Jesus actually fulfills the old testament. And it's been also quite interesting understanding the history through Jewish eyes.
The oldest-known text of a prayer to Mary is from around A.D. 250. It is in Greek, and calls Mary "Theotokos," which means "God-bearer." Catholics would know it from a Latin version called the "Sub tuum praesidium." Ὑπὸ τὴν σὴν εὐσπλαγχνίαν, καταφεύγομεν, Θεοτόκε. Τὰς ἡμῶν ἱκεσίας μὴ παρίδῃς ἐν περιστάσει, ἀλλ᾽ ἐκ κινδύνων λύτρωσαι ἡμᾶς, μόνη Ἁγνή, μόνη εὐλογημένη. Beneath your tenderness of heart, we take refuge, O bearer of God. Do not despise our petitions amidst our troubles, but rescue us from dangers, O only pure one, only blessed one. Oh Mother Mary be a mother to us now . Amen!
@32:00 It got to be both---necessary and fitting. Necessary because of a very unique special grace at the moment of her conception; and fitting, as you said, because of her identity as a New Eve. I see it as internal and external aspect of Mary which is her unity of being as the Daughter of the Most High, a Spouse of the Holy Spirit, and the Virginal-Mother of the Saviour of the World, Yahushua Ha Christ.
@Gerry Hagen I respectfully disagree. Sorry you missed the point. I merely correct one of his idea without taking anything away from his lecturer. To answer your objection which seems plausible but in reality not true. You see to begin with it was not Jesus who said that but St. Paul. But that's a minor mistake you made there. The major mistake you made there is that you reduce what is said there as if there is no exception. Let's see it this way: All men have sinned, thus condemned to death. This statement is true but we do know God made exception. We know, from a Old Testament, Enoch and Elijah didn't taste death but was taken to paradise. Similarly, even more convincingly in case of the radical unity between Jesus, the Son, and Mary, the Virgin-Mother, such kind exception logically acceptable. Indeed, exception is not the rule in our horizontal way being but from vertically from God's way it is the revelation of "grace and truth" (John 1). I pray, in His Holy Name, you come to see this beautiful and most sublime doctrine. God speed.
@Gerry Hagen I'll respond to you further but when I say Enoch and Elijah didn't taste death, I don't mean they didn't sin. I was pointing out the rule of exception. To give the gift of sinlessness to Mary is an exceptional act of His Divine Mercy by All loving n Most Good God. As we have been told n believe, "For God nothing is impossible." This gift of being free from sin is hinted at her being a Virgin before, during, and after the Birth of Our Lord.
@Gerry Hagen This I'll add. Mary didn't receive her sinless life not for her own sake. But for the sake of the end God has in mind which is for her not to pass the original sin which we receive when we were in the womb of our mothers. Mary was merely n fully participating in the Immaculate Conception of Her Son. It was not to make her another Saviour but to make her participate in the Work of Redemption as only a Mother can participate. We Catholics don't take away anything from what Jesus accomplished on the Cross. Rather thru her, we see and believe this great work of Mercy as she did and does. The goal is to be convinced like her, to be completely conformed like her unto Christ. There is no one better who has done that than her. She is and remains the first and foremost disciple of all believers because of this unique and exceptional gift of Mercy of grace and truth she received at the moment of Her Immaculate Conception. As for the Church Fathers took them 300 years, well it is the same thing that it took the Church Fathers to declare the core doctrine of Christianity i.e. the Holy Trinity. The deposit of Faith is already written n finished in the year 100 AD with the death of St. John the Evangelist. But human reason investigates and come to understand it later. Faith comes first, understanding comes later. So let's not assume we are smarter than the Church Fathers who were far more into the faith. If we want to see what we mean by being saved, the Blessed Virgin-Mother is the shining example of this faith which comes only thru hearing.
@Gerry Hagen I've not heard from you Gerry. Are you still remaining on your position or you would like to revisit the Mariology of Catholic Church. If you would like more info, you can visit CatholicAnswers.com Yes as for me I was born Catholic. And now discerning for religious life. The world is going nuts with far left liberalism but the Christian Faith remains the only sane path to God, from whom we come to whom we must return.
@Gerry Hagen Wow your logic incredible. First, the declaration of 1849 is never to make Mary a divine or transcendent. Never. Immaculate Conception never means making her equal with God. It just means she is free from sin and the reason is explained well by that gentleman on the video. Even Her transcendent nature is not as Goddess but in so far as she is "full of grace" to use the words of St. Gabriel who stands before the Thrice Holy God. Second, to compare Mary with Eve is exactly to say that she is a human being but faultless human being as that. The comparison is to show a direct contrast between the two. The former one who disobeyed the will of God and the latter one who didn't sought her own good. What is the similarity between night and day except they both reveal what time it is !!!
Another of my favourite talks from Dr. Brant Pitre. I wish he would post a full 2-3 hr lecture on the whole book. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I can keep on listening to his talks on our catholic faith.... Like FOREVER ❣️
With regards to St. Paul saying "for All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" .When Jesus said to His disciples in John 16:32, "But a time is coming, and has come, when you will be scattered, each to his own home. You will leave me ALL alone. Yet I am not alone, for my Father is with Me". But John was at the foot of the cross, so truly God always makes an exemption and God will always makes Mama Mary exempted in all possible ways because God gave Her not so many many graces but Full of graces. All the possible graces God can give, He gave it all to His Mother.
YOU: Yet I am not alone, for my Father is with Me". But John was at the foot of the cross, so truly God always makes an exemption *ME: LOL. Jesus was talking about being alone because when he was arrested -- ALL of his disciples scattered and deserted him,* with Simon even denying he ever knew Savior Jesus. *AND Jesus is talking about hanging on the cross -- dying to reconcile sinful Mankind back to GOD -- which Jesus ALONE could do* (Colossians 1:12-14,20-22). GOD wasn't making an "exception" to Jesus' "aloneness" by having the women and John standing at the foot of the cross -- see John 19:25. Come on, you can study better than that.
YOU: God gave Her not so many many graces but Full of graces *ME: The Greek words for "full of grace" are "pleris charis" as used to describe Jesus in John 1:14 -- those are NOT the same words used to describe Mary in Luke 1.* Luke 1 says that Mary was BEING GRACED/favored by God as the descendant of King David that would birth the long awaited Jewish Messiah that would one day sit on his father King David's Jewish throne in Jerusalem -- Luke 1:32, Matthew 2:2, Apocalypse 20:4-6, etc.
Dear Dr Pitre, I am a big fan of yours. You and Dr Scott Hahn are my favorite of all the Catholic theologians. I am from another country living here in the USA, my English is not very good but I love your talk on typologies . I would really love if you and Dr Scott Hahn can write a book about all the typology in the Bible. Please. Thank you very much.❤️
Wow. That last thing he said, how Mary being sinless gives us hope that God's Grace will also free us from sin 🙏 And how Jesus didn't come into this world to die on the cross just so He could _pretend_ we're righteous 👌

I have bought your books in english and have searched for a copy in italian but without sucsess. How come Dr Pires work is not in Italian? Will it be available soon?
I enjoyed your this of Mary mother of Jesus our saviour. It makes great sense. It was like having a great meal. Now I am wrerstling with this issue, could answer or hdirect me to a video on it. How can a person pray the rosary without breaking the first commandment? Thou shalt have no other gods before me. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. Thou shalt not BOW DOWN thyself to them, nor SERVE them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God,
Mary is not a god for us, the first command refers to idolatry. they had no image for God since no one saw Him, so they made statues to worship. I dont see how this relates to Mary
you pray the rosary because that was given to us from heaven, God's creation and willed it too, you worry about the none Catholic ones, they are the one that break the 1st commandment, eg hindism, buddahism, islam etc etc, and the atheists who prefer pic and status of naked women and men and animals and other materialistic stuff than the image of the Almighty God as it serve in the Catholic Church, further the protestants who mock the image and the status of GOD AND HIS FAMILY, AND THAT IS THE BLESSED MOTHER OF GOD, MARY, AND THE ANGELS THE SAINTS AND THE HOLY PEOPLE WHO ARE IN HEAVEN WITH THEM.. These protestants are destroying their images and statues and in their houses you find not the image of our Blessed LORD or his family but statues of animals or the paintings of some well known artists or the pic of their loved ones who are not God or any other items that they safe keep in their houses for treasures....
My mother all time saved me thanks so much real love ❤ i understand my mother give me new ❤ 💕 life but world can't believe me and can't understand 💔 😢 me only my mother understand me thanks so much mother 💒👑👰♂️⭐🌙❤
This is adequate however I think it is incomplete there was no mention of Rachel no mention of the Ark. Of the covenant government I think there's a lot more that we can add to this. But it's a good start
Great to have listened to this awesome explanation!... thanks be to God for explaining the Old and New Testaments in this manner about Mary to us. God bless you and your family.🔔🔔🔔💞
Wow, Dr. Pitre, I enjoyed your lecture. You're right there's a whole lot to meditate on this mystery. I'll look forward to a forthcoming lecture. Thank you.
Very interesting.. I consider Brandt Pitre one of the two best lay teachers of the Faith [Scott Hahn is the other, would be interested to know if they have met].
Oh my goodness...what a beautiful description of Mary in light of all the misconception of who she is, not only as the Mother of Jesus, but also the new Eve....Amen 🙏✝️🙏🙌🙌
Why lack of comments? Either you are speechless or moonstruck. Reading Rev 12 is not complete without reading some verses before (chpt 11) to enhance who Mary really is. Thank you Dr Pitre.
Also it is important to note that our Mother Mary had to be free from all sin, being Created as God's Masterpiece to be able to withstand the sheer POWER of Jesus' Essence within Her Womb and also to be able to relate to Him as His Mother, since He is God. In my mystical experiences of my Pa-pa Jesus'Presence through His Holy Spirit, I have just tastes of Who my Creator is and feel my entire soul in relation to Him instantly. Had i not been going to Confession and Mass, already having a conviction of giving myself over to Jesus through our blossoming relationship filled with Spiritual enlightenments, if i wasnt already in a relationship with Him, then His Presence felt more POWERFULLY in these ways would have broken my heart to pieces having guilt from the INDESCRIBABLE BEAUTY of the way Jesus feels... Amd these are just tastes of Him. Now i fully enjoy Him as i am deeply convicted of being a new creation living in celibacy and obedience out of LOVE for Him. Id be a nun if congregations took belated vocation of women in "poor physical health", as i use a wheelchair... This is something that has to change!!!!! But point is that my Mommy Mary is indeed a MIRACULOUS Creation to carry and related to our Savior and God as His Mother, Her Son Jesus✝️🌹💞🥰📖🐑🙏⛪⛪💐✝️
YOU: it is important to note that our Mother Mary had to be free from all sin, *ME: Mary says that she is a sinner in Luke 1:48. And John shows Mary committing the same Sin of Pride at the wedding in John 2:1-5 that Adam did in the Garden.*
YOU: sheer POWER of Jesus' Essence within Her Womb *ME: You contradict Jesus and Peter and Paul -- they taught that the physical Jesus was a Man/Second Adam/SON of God (not God) who was INDWELLED by God/Holy Spirit (at his water baptism, John 1:33-34) and that it was GOD who indwelled Jesus that did the miracles (Acts 10:38, John 14:10, Acts 2:22, etc). Mary was the mother of the King of the JEWS (Matthew 2:2) that would one day sit on his father KING DAVID's Jewish throne in Jerusalem (Luke 1:32) -- which will happen at Jesus' Second Coming to Israel in Apocalypse 20:4-6. *Mary was NOT the mother of GOD who is Spirit (John 4:24)* And you might NOTE that Elizabeth's womb actually carried a baby that was indwelled by GOD/Holy Spirit (Luke 1) -- Jesus wasn't indwelled by GOD/Holy Spirit until he was 30 years old and baptized by John for the repentance for the remission of sin -- Matthew 3:13-16, Mark 1:4, John 1:33-34, etc. *Sooo.... I guess Elizabeth's womb was more powerful than Mary's....*
The church never changed the Sabbath, that is an ellen white lie. Sunday is the Lord's Resurrection day, The apostle broke bread in the first day of the week - Resurrection day of the Lord in ACTS 20:7, not a je_w rest day (sabbath)
I always enjoy Dr. Pitre's brilliant explanations. I have learnt so much from his many videos. Thank you Dr. Pitre. May God bless you and continue to use you as His intrument. Through our Blessed Mother Mary, we poor banished children of Eve entrust ourselves to you, O Lord. Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen. ✝️🙏⚘❤
No surprise John's amazing depth of understanding when you know he too had Mary to mother him up close and personal. Interesting how Mary had authority over servants in kitchen, why wasn't she mingling to find a suitable wife for her son? When jesus reminded her of what beginning his ministry would personally cost her, she went forth giving him to the public. I'm thinking they had much conversing and he had reasured her that he would not begin until she was ready.
A question regarding this: „A maiden expelled us from paradise, through a maiden we find eternal life“ In Genesis 3 Eve eats from the tree of wisdom and shares the apple with Adam. That’s why god expels us from paradise. However, god also says, now that we know good and evil, we MUST NOT eat from the tree of life, that would give us eternal life. Wouldn’t that mean, that god doesn’t want to have us eternal life? And wouldn’t it mean, that marry helping us gain eternal life, would be a bad thing according to god in genesis 3? I’m a convert to Catholicism, so I want everything Brand is saying about Mary to be true. However this just struck me and I’d like to hear your opinions about it.

One question regarding Mary as the Woman in labour in Apocalypse chapter 12. As I understand it, one of the punishments for Eve in Genesis 3:16 was that she would now suffer pain in childbirth. But Mary was conceived without original sin. So why would she be depicted as travailing "in great pain of her delivery"? I'm using a Knox version of the bible. Could Dr Pitre or anyone else please enlighten me here? Thanks in advance.
@CathoLisa41 Lisieux Well, you've cartainly got that wrong regarding my status as a mother 😆. I know aaaaaalll about being pregnant and giving birth from first hand experience! But all I am doing is asking for clarification about an apparent contradiction about the trials and travails of childbirth being associated with the sin of Eve, and why Mary - who was most definitely conceived WITHOUT original sin, should have to suffer those same pains?
@po18guy Well, your explanation certainly makes sense to me. It hadn't occurred to me that the suffering og Mary might be related to her seven sorrows. Thank you for your insight.

I don't make comments on the internet so much, but this dear brother has been a huge blessing to my life. I am still evangelical, I was raised as one, son of a Pastor, who always taught me to love all Christian traditions, and like this, I started to read more about the doctrines of the Roman Catholic Church, which is the most important church -still- in my country, Chile, even though It seems to be very off, people don't go to mass as it was before, and many Catholics brothers don't know what they believe. For a while now, I know that the Eucharist is the blood and body of the Lord, I think I started to understand this in a historical way, but also during my times of prayers, the Lord show me that He is there, then I found the book of Dr Pitre about the eucharist which was a confirmation for me of that matter, I share this with my church and every day we are having more reverence to the Lord Supper. Now, maybe a few months started to realize the importance of Mary for the salvation plan of God, how she, by grace and her yes to the Lord, I want to learn more from her, before I was son against this kind of doctrine, but kinda now I see them more clearly, but it's not just an intellectual thing, it comes with peace in my heart. May God bless all people who seek the kingdom of God before everything else. Thank God for Dr Pitre, and how he has developed his gif his "charis" is definitely an example to follow.

I finished this book a few months ago and mmmmmaaaaannnn, my mind was blown!

I am blessed to be a member of the church Jesus established!

Psalms 45:17
“I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations: therefore shall the people praise thee for ever and ever.”
Only catholics clutching at straws nowadays to validate the earthly papal 1954 descision to name mary as queen of heaven will believe that out of context explanation of 45: 17.
The whole song is a prophecy and meant to honourJesus in the final marriage of christ to the bride, ( the church). his loyal followers.
Jesus is not going to marry his earthly mother.
How ridiculous .
You got it wrong dude... the church declare something as dogmatic in the later years because first of all of you protestants spreading wrong teachings and confusion to other catholics as well. But in the early days of Christianity everyone knows and accepts she is the queen of heaven and earth and so the church does not need to declare it.

QUOTE that FROM THE BIBLE and NOT an opinion or tradition!!!!
Who is the interpreter of Scripture?
Scripture alone is the sole rule and norm for faith and life. Being the very Word of God in written form, the reformers also maintained that “Scripture interprets Scripture” which means that the Bible is its own interpreter. This is a profound concept to be sure.
-----Who has the authority to interpret Scripture?
As the very word of God, Scripture comes with the authority and sufficiency of God, and therefore Scripture is not subject to the interpretation of any man or body, but rather Scripture interprets itself.
----So, interpret these:
-----Ex 20:4-6 4 “You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. 5 You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, 6 but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.
--Ex 20:8-11 “Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. 9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 10 but the seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your male or female servant, nor your animals, nor any foreigner residing in your towns. 11 For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.
--Isaiah 58:13 “If you keep your feet from breaking the Sabbath
and from doing as you please on MY HOLY DAY,
if you call the Sabbath a delight
and the Lord’s HOLY day honorable,
and if you honor it by not going your own way
and not doing as you please or speaking idle words,
-----Acts 10:11-17
INTERPRET them!!!
***What DAY IS THE SABBATH?
Let’s let the Catholic Church answer this one. After all, they have been studying it for millennia, and also convinced the world to change the day. So, what do they say?
“Perhaps the boldest thing, the most revolutionary change the Church ever did, happened in the first century. The holy day, the Sabbath, was changed from Saturday to Sunday. “The Day of the Lord” (dies Dominica) was chosen, not from any directions noted in the Scriptures, but from the Church’s sense of its own power. The day of resurrection, the day of Pentecost, fifty days later, came on the first day of the week. So this would be the new Sabbath. People who think that the Scriptures should be the sole authority, should logically become 7th Day Adventists, and keep Saturday holy.” Sentinel, Pastor’s page, Saint Catherine Catholic Church, Algonac, Michigan, May 21, 1995
So, I’d say the Sabbath of the Lord is Saturday. The Sabbath of men is Sunday.

Converted from Baptist to the Holy Catholic Church five years ago. If you are new to the Church or are considering converting, PRAY THE ROSARY DAILY. It has changed my life. It destroys that mortal sin you’ve been fighting for so long. It opens your heart so God can let massive amounts of grace flow into you. Mental prayer is a natural consequence of devotion to the Rosary. This is what it has done for me. Lord Jesus and Moma Mary, I love you!!
amen
Rosary as the Blessed Virgin Mary said, the weapon against satan... God Almighty gave it to her Masterpiece, the Blessed Virgin Mary to use it against the devil.... satan flee and his little minions to the abysses of hell.. it is known as the sword against evil.... yes grap your sword and swing it towards the enemy they will all flee away with fear ..

@@veritasmuy2407 😂😂 No it doesn't, who told you that? Tapeinōsin? It means humble or lowly, it has nothing to do with sin. You think John 2 shows Mary committing pride? You can't be serious. Asking her Son to help another person is your definition of pride? You are horrible at exegesis. John mirrors the Genesis creation account in John 1&2. Unlike Eve, who brought about the fall of man, Mary as the new Eve brings about the redemption of man. "They have no wine." " *WOMAN* , what it that to me and to thee? My hour has not yet come" His mother saith to the waiters "Whatsoever he shall say to you, do ye." This doesn't show pride this show humility. She asks Jesus to help the wedding party that she is a guest at, if they ran out of wine it wouldn't make her look bad. And what does Jesus say? Woman( citing Mary as the woman of Genesis before the fall, who was still without sin and still a virgin) how does that concern me and you? He doesn't just say why does it matter to me but why does it matter to us. Showing how close of a relationship they shared. And that she knew what his ultimate fate was. Even though it wasn't his time Jesus still began His public ministry at the request of his mother. This shows that when Mary intercedes to her Son he acts.
Dr Pitre is definitely a "Doctor of the Church" in the same way as St Thomas Aquinas et al! One thing that occured to me watching this, during Dr Pitre's explanation of Mary as the New Eve - I haven't read the book, and I expect that someone a lot more learned than me has already said this in a book or lecture somewhere, but; At the start of the story, Adam appears first and then Eve, who is "born" from Adam through the intervention (or involvement) of God. And then they sin together. In order to complete the cycle as it were, not only must the New Adam and the New Eve be together at the moment of our salvation (rescue from the Fall) just as Dr Pitre describes in this talk, but the New Eve must appear in the story first, and the New Adam be born from her body via the intervention (involvement) of God - thus the Virgin birth following the Anunciation where Mary is made pregnant by the Holy Spirit. Just something that occured to me watching this talk, that the "reversal" or "mirroring" of the birth of Eve from Adam and Christ from Mary, were the two "bookends" of the story of Humanity between the Fall and the Salvation. Probably wrong though, I am not a scholar at all!
That’s beautiful!
I believe that is what us Catholics have taught since the beginning.
Though I do agree that it's beautiful that you are seeing the beauty of Jesus and Mary, as the New Adam and the New Eve!
God bless you my friend! ⚘

The oldest-known text of a prayer to Mary is from around A.D. 250. It is in Greek, and calls Mary "Theotokos," which means "God-bearer." Catholics would know it from a Latin version called the "Sub tuum praesidium."
Ὑπὸ τὴν σὴν εὐσπλαγχνίαν, καταφεύγομεν, Θεοτόκε. Τὰς ἡμῶν ἱκεσίας μὴ παρίδῃς ἐν περιστάσει, ἀλλ᾽ ἐκ κινδύνων λύτρωσαι ἡμᾶς, μόνη Ἁγνή, μόνη εὐλογημένη.
Beneath your tenderness of heart, we take refuge, O bearer of God. Do not despise our petitions amidst our troubles, but rescue us from dangers, O only pure one, only blessed one.
Oh Mother Mary be a mother to us now . Amen!
@32:00 It got to be both---necessary and fitting. Necessary because of a very unique special grace at the moment of her conception; and fitting, as you said, because of her identity as a New Eve. I see it as internal and external aspect of Mary which is her unity of being as the Daughter of the Most High, a Spouse of the Holy Spirit, and the Virginal-Mother of the Saviour of the World, Yahushua Ha Christ.
@Gerry Hagen
I respectfully disagree. Sorry you missed the point. I merely correct one of his idea without taking anything away from his lecturer.
To answer your objection which seems plausible but in reality not true. You see to begin with it was not Jesus who said that but St. Paul. But that's a minor mistake you made there. The major mistake you made there is that you reduce what is said there as if there is no exception. Let's see it this way: All men have sinned, thus condemned to death. This statement is true but we do know God made exception. We know, from a Old Testament, Enoch and Elijah didn't taste death but was taken to paradise. Similarly, even more convincingly in case of the radical unity between Jesus, the Son, and Mary, the Virgin-Mother, such kind exception logically acceptable. Indeed, exception is not the rule in our horizontal way being but from vertically from God's way it is the revelation of "grace and truth" (John 1).
I pray, in His Holy Name, you come to see this beautiful and most sublime doctrine.
God speed.
@Gerry Hagen
I'll respond to you further but when I say Enoch and Elijah didn't taste death, I don't mean they didn't sin. I was pointing out the rule of exception. To give the gift of sinlessness to Mary is an exceptional act of His Divine Mercy by All loving n Most Good God. As we have been told n believe, "For God nothing is impossible." This gift of being free from sin is hinted at her being a Virgin before, during, and after the Birth of Our Lord.
@Gerry Hagen
This I'll add. Mary didn't receive her sinless life not for her own sake. But for the sake of the end God has in mind which is for her not to pass the original sin which we receive when we were in the womb of our mothers. Mary was merely n fully participating in the Immaculate Conception of Her Son. It was not to make her another Saviour but to make her participate in the Work of Redemption as only a Mother can participate. We Catholics don't take away anything from what Jesus accomplished on the Cross. Rather thru her, we see and believe this great work of Mercy as she did and does. The goal is to be convinced like her, to be completely conformed like her unto Christ. There is no one better who has done that than her. She is and remains the first and foremost disciple of all believers because of this unique and exceptional gift of Mercy of grace and truth she received at the moment of Her Immaculate Conception.
As for the Church Fathers took them 300 years, well it is the same thing that it took the Church Fathers to declare the core doctrine of Christianity i.e. the Holy Trinity. The deposit of Faith is already written n finished in the year 100 AD with the death of St. John the Evangelist. But human reason investigates and come to understand it later. Faith comes first, understanding comes later. So let's not assume we are smarter than the Church Fathers who were far more into the faith. If we want to see what we mean by being saved, the Blessed Virgin-Mother is the shining example of this faith which comes only thru hearing.
@Gerry Hagen
I've not heard from you Gerry. Are you still remaining on your position or you would like to revisit the Mariology of Catholic Church. If you would like more info, you can visit CatholicAnswers.com
Yes as for me I was born Catholic. And now discerning for religious life. The world is going nuts with far left liberalism but the Christian Faith remains the only sane path to God, from whom we come to whom we must return.
@Gerry Hagen
Wow your logic incredible.
First, the declaration of 1849 is never to make Mary a divine or transcendent. Never. Immaculate Conception never means making her equal with God. It just means she is free from sin and the reason is explained well by that gentleman on the video. Even Her transcendent nature is not as Goddess but in so far as she is "full of grace" to use the words of St. Gabriel who stands before the Thrice Holy God.
Second, to compare Mary with Eve is exactly to say that she is a human being but faultless human being as that. The comparison is to show a direct contrast between the two. The former one who disobeyed the will of God and the latter one who didn't sought her own good. What is the similarity between night and day except they both reveal what time it is !!!
Another of my favourite talks from Dr. Brant Pitre. I wish he would post a full 2-3 hr lecture on the whole book. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I can keep on listening to his talks on our catholic faith.... Like FOREVER ❣️
With regards to St. Paul saying "for All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" .When Jesus said to His disciples in John 16:32, "But a time is coming, and has come, when you will be scattered, each to his own home. You will leave me ALL alone. Yet I am not alone, for my Father is with Me". But John was at the foot of the cross, so truly God always makes an exemption and God will always makes Mama Mary exempted in all possible ways because God gave Her not so many many graces but Full of graces. All the possible graces God can give, He gave it all to His Mother.
YOU: Yet I am not alone, for my Father is with Me". But John was at the foot of the cross, so truly God always makes an exemption
*ME: LOL. Jesus was talking about being alone because when he was arrested -- ALL of his disciples scattered and deserted him,* with Simon even denying he ever knew Savior Jesus. *AND Jesus is talking about hanging on the cross -- dying to reconcile sinful Mankind back to GOD -- which Jesus ALONE could do* (Colossians 1:12-14,20-22).
GOD wasn't making an "exception" to Jesus' "aloneness" by having the women and John standing at the foot of the cross -- see John 19:25. Come on, you can study better than that.
YOU: God gave Her not so many many graces but Full of graces
*ME: The Greek words for "full of grace" are "pleris charis" as used to describe Jesus in John 1:14 -- those are NOT the same words used to describe Mary in Luke 1.* Luke 1 says that Mary was BEING GRACED/favored by God as the descendant of King David that would birth the long awaited Jewish Messiah that would one day sit on his father King David's Jewish throne in Jerusalem -- Luke 1:32, Matthew 2:2, Apocalypse 20:4-6, etc.
Amazing Presentation. Thank you Dr Brant Pitre
Thank you
Thank you very much!
Dear Dr Pitre, I am a big fan of yours. You and Dr Scott Hahn are my favorite of all the Catholic theologians. I am from another country living here in the USA, my English is not very good but I love your talk on typologies . I would really love if you and Dr Scott Hahn can write a book about all the typology in the Bible. Please. Thank you very much.❤️
I am looking forward to doing this series for Lent. God bless you and thank you Dr. Pitre!!
Speechless. Thank you.
This was a fantastic lecture! Thank you Professor Pitts. I can’t wait to see more and read your books!
He left out Apocalypse 12:17---it's a HUGE omission.
Me too!
Thanks so much mother 💒 big respect for you 🙏 ❤ 💒⭐🌙👑👰♂️❤💯💒💯
Wow. That last thing he said, how Mary being sinless gives us hope that God's Grace will also free us from sin 🙏 And how Jesus didn't come into this world to die on the cross just so He could _pretend_ we're righteous 👌
Thanks oh God for let me find this great messages. May God bless you Dr Pitre and our beatiful Mother protects the whole world
Mary, Mother of God and ours, please pray for us sinners!
Why do Catholics REFUSE to obey God and HIS HOLY WORDS???
1 Peter 5:6----Humble yourselves, therefore, under God's mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.
(John 14:6-----“I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me”). Christians are often criticized for claiming that Jesus is the only way to God.
-----Do you really think God appreaciates the implication that He is a liar?
----John 14:13-14 13 And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14 You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.
1 Tim 2:5 For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus,
-=---The NAME of Jesus!!! --Not the name of Mary!!! Not Jopseph !!!!
With God, we can achieve the peace we need to feel truly fulfilled and happy 💖💖💖

Others have the fast First and then
..THE FEAST!"
I enjoy your lecture on Mary Mother of Christ Thank You 🙏
Mary was the first one to benefit from the Salvation of Jesus 💯 34:53
wow.. excellent!!!!!
Need to edit text at the 7:20 mark, Assumption not Ascension.
Very insightful. Thank you, Dr. Brandt Pitre
🌷🕊🕊🌸🕊🕊🌸Mary came to me in a vision after shutting my eyes that night going to bed crying 7 months ago ..... she brought wilted flowers that quickly turned into huge lush flowers 🌸🌷💐🌻🌹 I symbolize this with her wanting my sadness to end with her divine presence🕊 I am in awe she appeared to me right out of the blue it was surreal Mary is absolutely angelic high vibrational energy 🌟She looked exactly as depicted so pretty fairy like angelic with delicate features large eyes that sparkled, wearing a shroud covering her head. Her hair Brunette hair swept off her delicate face. A glow of white radiated from her extraordinary experience 🌻 I COULD SMELL THE FLOWERS 💐💐

@@mitchellosmer1293Not even a good try
You’re so lucky!!!!
You’re so blessed!!! 🙏🌷🌸
Thanks so much sar
Is it posible to add a Spanish translation for those who dont understad good english?? Please 🙏🏻🙏🏻🌹
This is so revealing, sorry I only learn all this at 69years. Thank you!
Thank you. That is a lot knowledge you've shared to us
I have bought your books in english and have searched for a copy in italian but without sucsess. How come Dr Pires work is not in Italian? Will it be available soon?
I enjoyed your this of Mary mother of Jesus our saviour. It makes great sense. It was like having a great meal.
Now I am wrerstling with this issue, could answer or hdirect me to a video on it. How can a person pray the rosary without breaking the first commandment?
Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
Thou shalt not BOW DOWN thyself to them, nor SERVE them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God,
Mary is not a god for us, the first command refers to idolatry. they had no image for God since no one saw Him, so they made statues to worship. I dont see how this relates to Mary
you pray the rosary because that was given to us from heaven, God's creation and willed it too, you worry about the none Catholic ones, they are the one that break the 1st commandment, eg hindism, buddahism, islam etc etc, and the atheists who prefer pic and status of naked women and men and animals and other materialistic stuff than the image of the Almighty God as it serve in the Catholic Church, further the protestants who mock the image and the status of GOD AND HIS FAMILY, AND THAT IS THE BLESSED MOTHER OF GOD, MARY, AND THE ANGELS THE SAINTS AND THE HOLY PEOPLE WHO ARE IN HEAVEN WITH THEM.. These protestants are destroying their images and statues and in their houses you find not the image of our Blessed LORD or his family but statues of animals or the paintings of some well known artists or the pic of their loved ones who are not God or any other items that they safe keep in their houses for treasures....
My mother all time saved me thanks so much real love ❤ i understand my mother give me new ❤ 💕 life but world can't believe me and can't understand 💔 😢 me only my mother understand me thanks so much mother 💒👑👰♂️⭐🌙❤
This is adequate however I think it is incomplete there was no mention of Rachel no mention of the Ark. Of the covenant government I think there's a lot more that we can add to this. But it's a good start
Read the Catechism of the Catholic Church, you will find it there.
Please see another of Dr. Pitre's videos here on TH-cam: "Mary, the Ark of the New Covenant" - th-cam.com/video/jmNWqLSJcJI/w-d-xo.html
Great to have listened to this awesome explanation!... thanks be to God for explaining the Old and New Testaments in this manner about Mary to us. God bless you and your family.🔔🔔🔔💞
Wow, Dr. Pitre, I enjoyed your lecture. You're right there's a whole lot to meditate on this mystery. I'll look forward to a forthcoming lecture. Thank you.
Amazing study. Well versed and prepared. Thank you.
Excellent!
Beautiful
Thanks so much I need information please
Very interesting.. I consider Brandt Pitre one of the two best lay teachers of the Faith [Scott Hahn is the other, would be interested to know if they have met].
Yes they are together in one of the videos
Oh my goodness...what a beautiful description of Mary in light of all the misconception of who she is, not only as the Mother of Jesus, but also the new Eve....Amen 🙏✝️🙏🙌🙌
Message of Akita that Mary is the Woman mention in the Genesis.
Where's episode 2?
Great book!!
Thank you. This is superb.
Why lack of comments? Either you are speechless or moonstruck. Reading Rev 12 is not complete without reading some verses before (chpt 11) to enhance who Mary really is. Thank you Dr Pitre.
Definitely speechless and moonstruck. Dr Pitre unpacks scripture like no other in my opinion.
Also it is important to note that our Mother Mary had to be free from all sin, being Created as God's Masterpiece to be able to withstand the sheer POWER of Jesus' Essence within Her Womb and also to be able to relate to Him as His Mother, since He is God. In my mystical experiences of my Pa-pa Jesus'Presence through His Holy Spirit, I have just tastes of Who my Creator is and feel my entire soul in relation to Him instantly. Had i not been going to Confession and Mass, already having a conviction of giving myself over to Jesus through our blossoming relationship filled with Spiritual enlightenments, if i wasnt already in a relationship with Him, then His Presence felt more POWERFULLY in these ways would have broken my heart to pieces having guilt from the INDESCRIBABLE BEAUTY of the way Jesus feels... Amd these are just tastes of Him. Now i fully enjoy Him as i am deeply convicted of being a new creation living in celibacy and obedience out of LOVE for Him. Id be a nun if congregations took belated vocation of women in "poor physical health", as i use a wheelchair... This is something that has to change!!!!! But point is that my Mommy Mary is indeed a MIRACULOUS Creation to carry and related to our Savior and God as His Mother, Her Son Jesus✝️🌹💞🥰📖🐑🙏⛪⛪💐✝️
YOU: it is important to note that our Mother Mary had to be free from all sin,
*ME: Mary says that she is a sinner in Luke 1:48. And John shows Mary committing the same Sin of Pride at the wedding in John 2:1-5 that Adam did in the Garden.*
YOU: sheer POWER of Jesus' Essence within Her Womb
*ME: You contradict Jesus and Peter and Paul -- they taught that the physical Jesus was a Man/Second Adam/SON of God (not God) who was INDWELLED by God/Holy Spirit (at his water baptism, John 1:33-34) and that it was GOD who indwelled Jesus that did the miracles (Acts 10:38, John 14:10, Acts 2:22, etc).
Mary was the mother of the King of the JEWS (Matthew 2:2) that would one day sit on his father KING DAVID's Jewish throne in Jerusalem (Luke 1:32) -- which will happen at Jesus' Second Coming to Israel in Apocalypse 20:4-6. *Mary was NOT the mother of GOD who is Spirit (John 4:24)*
And you might NOTE that Elizabeth's womb actually carried a baby that was indwelled by GOD/Holy Spirit (Luke 1) -- Jesus wasn't indwelled by GOD/Holy Spirit until he was 30 years old and baptized by John for the repentance for the remission of sin -- Matthew 3:13-16, Mark 1:4, John 1:33-34, etc. *Sooo.... I guess Elizabeth's womb was more powerful than Mary's....*
Please watch "Who Changed the Sabbath" by Hope Through Prophecy
The church never changed the Sabbath, that is an ellen white lie. Sunday is the Lord's Resurrection day, The apostle broke bread in the first day of the week - Resurrection day of the Lord in ACTS 20:7, not a je_w rest day (sabbath)
First episode and it’s on Our Lady? SUBSCRIBED 😎
Really good presentation.
I always enjoy Dr. Pitre's brilliant explanations. I have learnt so much from his many videos. Thank you Dr. Pitre. May God bless you and continue to use you as His intrument.
Through our Blessed Mother Mary,
we poor banished children of Eve
entrust ourselves to you, O Lord.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen. ✝️🙏⚘❤
No surprise John's amazing depth of understanding when you know he too had Mary to mother him up close and personal.
Interesting how Mary had authority over servants in kitchen, why wasn't she mingling to find a suitable wife for her son?
When jesus reminded her of what beginning his ministry would personally cost her, she went forth giving him to the public. I'm thinking they had much conversing and he had reasured her that he would not begin until she was ready.
I would love more about this topic please
A question regarding this: „A maiden expelled us from paradise, through a maiden we find eternal life“
In Genesis 3 Eve eats from the tree of wisdom and shares the apple with Adam. That’s why god expels us from paradise.
However, god also says, now that we know good and evil, we MUST NOT eat from the tree of life, that would give us eternal life.
Wouldn’t that mean, that god doesn’t want to have us eternal life? And wouldn’t it mean, that marry helping us gain eternal life, would be a bad thing according to god in genesis 3?
I’m a convert to Catholicism, so I want everything Brand is saying about Mary to be true. However this just struck me and I’d like to hear your opinions about it.
interesting,pretty nice explanation
Love this...

Into your tender heart
Our pledge is to become part
To you we pray impart
The Master's Loving Art!
Amen Alleluia Jesus!
Fantastic thank you 😊 🙏
First time in my life encountered toxicity directly from Protestants and I have started seriously digging deeper
One question regarding Mary as the Woman in labour in Apocalypse chapter 12. As I understand it, one of the punishments for Eve in Genesis 3:16 was that she would now suffer pain in childbirth. But Mary was conceived without original sin. So why would she be depicted as travailing "in great pain of her delivery"? I'm using a Knox version of the bible. Could Dr Pitre or anyone else please enlighten me here? Thanks in advance.
@CathoLisa41 Lisieux Well, you've cartainly got that wrong regarding my status as a mother 😆. I know aaaaaalll about being pregnant and giving birth from first hand experience! But all I am doing is asking for clarification about an apparent contradiction about the trials and travails of childbirth being associated with the sin of Eve, and why Mary - who was most definitely conceived WITHOUT original sin, should have to suffer those same pains?
@po18guy That sounds like a pretty reasonable explanation - thank you!
@po18guy Well, your explanation certainly makes sense to me. It hadn't occurred to me that the suffering og Mary might be related to her seven sorrows. Thank you for your insight.
Amen !
Amen ❤️🙏
