@ShamounianExplains Hello Sam . Question . Christ says John the Baptist was the greatest born of men. Would this also include being greater than his mother Mary ? Thanks
On your answer to the question: “Why did Jesus call Mary woman?”…I must respectfully disagree. As a life long Catholic and a soldier in the Marian Army, I have always been told that Jesus was calling his blessed mother, “Sinless One” when he called her woman. Eve did not receive her name until immediately after eating of the tree of knowledge. Prior to that she (Eve) was referred to as woman 8 times. At La Salette, Our Lady was asked her name by Saint Bernadette, her reply, “I am the Immaculate Conception”. Jesus was honoring his mother and identifying her as the Immaculate One.
@@mikecastelluccio7072 Just as Water turned into wine at the wedding, the wine will turn into His Blood at another wedding feast. I strongly believe that the wedding at Cana foreshadowed the magnificent wedding of the Lamb mentioned in Revelation 17. Furthermore, it is crucial to emphasize that the wedding feast is an essential belief that all Christians should embrace. The holy Eucharist!
@@evanzanyswer6295 Actually, Evan, the wine turns into the blood of Jesus Christ at each and every Catholic Mass. If at all possible, go to Mass daily just as Our Lord instructed us in the one and only prayer that he taught us. This is what he meant when He said, give us this day our daily (Luke 11:3) super substantial (Matthew 6:11) bread” in The Lord’s Prayer. Obviously, this is meant to signify the Holy Eucharist.
@@mikecastelluccio7072I have a question why would you go to Matt 6 and Luke 11 for instructions about eucharist observance when the Lord gives none in the verses that cover the topic. Now I do not fault any one for daily communion because it is commendable but to teach that it should be done daily adds to scripture that is not there.
sam i love you in Christ ,im a Christian of protestant background ,ive never heard of any protestant preacher,or other fellowship christian say that JESUS rebuked His mother Mary ,MARY is always spoke of as Blessed ,ive never been taught anything but just what you taught here ,,,,Blessings Brother
You are not all protestants! Just because you were not taught that Jesus rebuked Mary in that verse does not mean that no other Protestant was not taught that. I have run into many Protestants who argued with me saying that Jesus rebuked His mother because He called her woman and told her that it wasn't His time. *Edit to add:* I do 𝙉𝙊𝙏 believe that Jesus rebuked Mary! People seem to be getting confused about what I'm saying.
@@mercytreeministries5973Well glad to hear that but you're not all Protestant churches. There are tens of thousands of different Protestant denominations. And believe me, many have told me that Jesus rebuked Mary in those verses.
Sam, your depth and understanding of the bible is truly guided by the Holy Spirit. I recently returned to the Catholic Church and your teachings bring tears to my eyes, that I ever choose to walk away and also that I'm so happy to return home. God bless you.
Wow. How amazing that this actually makes biblical sense. Thank Sam. There are so many gems untold, yet to be reveal through those touched by His Grace. May God continue to reveal His hidden word to you. Be blessed.
As a catholic I thank you Sam, for giving Mother Mary the respect she deserves, I know Jesus will be happy about you defending her. I think what we all need to remember is that Jesus worked his very first miracle for his mother. Also the greeting from the angel Gabriel "Hail Mary full of Grace", not half full but full, going on to say the Lord is with you and blessed are you amongst woman, because her womb was to contain the second person of the trinity, the son of God.
Greek word: Κεχαριτωμένη (source) Transliteration: Kecharitomene Translation: Literally,” You, who have been graced” (You that are highly favored, KJV) English: You (Second Person Singular) Have (present tense) Been (past participle of “to be”) Graced (past participle of “to grace”). Greek: KE - perfect tense (prior event/occurrence/happening that is still existing/occurring or happening now) CHARITO - a gift, something that is free or unmerited MENE - a female receiver not giver. The Latin translation “gratia plena” (full of grace, as found in Dhouay-Rheims) is not a literal translation from the Greek."
Your testimony and revelation brings tears. You speak with the power of the Spirit and word’s that strike like missiles! God bless and continue to give you strength, energy and all you need.
@@michellegiroux1852 You are deceived and in Ecclesiastes 5:9 it states that the dead know nothing and no where in scripture are we instructed to pray to anyone but the Father. Yeshua, (Jesus) lowered HIS mothers status to, "woman" showing that she had no authority or influence. Blessings
@@michellegiroux1852 You may want to actually obey scripture. Per the BIBLE, you are not to speak to or call on the DEAD. Mary is DEAD. As Jesus said, "if you love Me, keep my commandments".
@@BernardStevens-vl3mz Did the apostles venerated Mary? Or worshipped her? Isn't it that the commandments are violated making statues of Mary, praying and worshiping her instead of Jesus? I was once a Catholic too. Just read history. The Romans were not true Christians when they converted to Christianity. They adopted Christianity to gain political advantages and retained their pagan deities. They were killing Christians back then. But God is amazing. Although Roman Catholicism is a corrupted religion. God also used it to spread the Gospel throughout the world.
@@BernardStevens-vl3mz Luke 11:27-28 English Standard Version True Blessedness 27 As he said these things, a woman in the crowd raised her voice and said to him, “Blessed is the womb that bore you, and the breasts at which you nursed!” 28 But he said, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and keep it!” Jesus begs to differ that Mary should be worshipped.
Soo beautiful, Thanks Sam for protesting that this lad has the skill to read the text, dwell on it and come to a conclusion not just to rely on ANY specific church doctrine. May we all see what God wants us to see and not anything destructive
It also shows another prophetic message of Christ. The bridegroom and the bride is the Church and Christ. The church of the time was empty. It was not fulfilled. The wedding (the church of the day) had finished all the wine (Grace based on sacrifice) that it had. It was to be humiliated. It was only when Jesus became the "best wine" (blood of the the new testament) at the "end of the celebration" (Passion) that the church was fulfilled. His hour (Passion, to shed the blood/wine) had not yet come.
I thank the Holy Spirt within you same for delivering this message. May you continue to hear the Holy Spirit and May God bring you the grace of his love. Peace be with you and your family brother.
God instituted wedding, Mary's request was honorable because it was unselfish and Jesus being her son honored his mother, she had full faith in her son. God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit knew ahead the miracle would be performed and it was so. God knew it would work out and end beautifully, proving His glory.
But what did Jesus had against Mary what did she do to deserve to be rebuked by Him? What would be the reason for anyone even to say that Jesus rebuked her it does not make any sense. I think for Jesus to call Mary woman meant something else. It was to show He has separate Himself from her and now He does not considering her to be His mother any more but His future bride. That is why her role has change from a mother to a bride.
Jesus also called many females ‘Woman’ in his ministry eg The Woman at the Well, The Woman caught in Adultery & others… Matthew 15: 28, Luke 13: 12, John 4: 21, John 8:10, John 20: 15 Matthew 12:48-50 (NIV) He replied to him, “Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?” Pointing to his disciples, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers. For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.” I loved the connection with the 6 jars and sabbath, day of rest. Jesus knew this would be asked of him and his reply, I believe, was to show that when he said ‘his hour had not come’ meant the hour of Wine being served at the eternal Feast with his Bride the church and the final eternal wedding. And the shedding of his blood for his bride. I didn’t equate it to mean the hour of his miracles. the water the Jews used for purification was replaced with the blood of Christ, the true purification of the New Covenant, so that part I understand but I felt everything said is for our benefit. To be taught this was the only way we can be purified. By his blood, (wine) I’d made a comment about this a couple of days ago on one of these posts too. It’s fascinating hearing many teachings and the grace of God allowing us to test the spirits to see if we too are in agreement. Sam’s teachings are by far the best I’ve come across on TH-cam and I search many!!! I also love Author Tim Cohen.. he too is mindblowing Bless Sam and his Ministry and Lord Jesus Bless his Family, daughters and Mother of his children 🙏🕊️🙏
As an academic I was overseas teaching 20 years. But, you are an amazing teacher with the Holy Bible and scriptures. I wonder if you as well speak any other languages as you seem so fluent in your pronunciations. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and testimony here on TH-cam.
Jesus directly pointed out who Mary was when He said, (Genesis 3,15...) I will put enmity between you and the woman, between her descendants and yours. The woman is Mary and her offspring is Jesus, who made the best wine in the world.
@@jeromepopiel388 You can use the translation you prefer, offsprin, descendants, seed. I don't care because Mary's descendants are not only Jesus, but also those who are part of the Church, those who have been baptized and are called to follow Him. That is why we are called children of Mary, because we participate in brotherhood with Christ. God bless you.
@@carapompilla Why translation are you reading?! Where does it say "children of Mary?!!! Here is what I see in scripture... Galatians 3:7-9 [7]Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham. [8]And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. [9]So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham. Abraham is the father of faith . The seed of Abraham inherits the blessings. Therefore We are called children of Abraham . It is because we are "in Christ" , not Mary.
@@jeromepopiel388 Do you consider Jesus son of Mary? Do you consider Mary the Theotokos? I don't understand what you mean "we are in Christ, not Mary."
@@carapompilla God was not born of Mary, Jesus was. The Bible says. Isaiah 9:6 [6]For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. A child was born, but the Son was given, not born of a woman. " In Christ" is the way in which we inherited all the blessings of God. When we are saved, God puts us "in Christ" Romans 12:5 So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another. 2 Corinthians 1:21 Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is God; 2 Corinthians 2:14 Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place. 2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. Ephesians 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ: Ephesians 1:10 That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even in him: Ephesians 2:13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.
The Wedding at Cana also fulfills Isaiah 46:10, in regards to Jesus's Miracles - **I make known the end from the beginning** ,.... ‘My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please.’ !!!! Praise God!
God Bless you Sam! Thank you for this wonderful explanation on our adored MOTHER MARY, QUEEN OF PEACE❤ May she always intercede for the peace of the world and of our hearts. Glory be to the FATHER, the SON and the HOLY SPIRIT, Amen
THE LORD ALONE IS PRINCE OF PEACE NOT MARY ALL TITLES BELONGS TO THE LORD WE SHOULDN'T WORSHIP MARY WE THANK THE LORD INSTEAD FOR THEM INCLUDING THE PROPHETS AND DISCIPLES.
47 Someone told him, “Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to speak to you.” 48 He replied to him, “Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?” 49 Pointing to his disciples, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers. 50 For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.”
Who is the first to do the will of His father *God*? That is Mary by obeying and believing the message brought by the Angel. Jesus is telling you that she is more important because of her obedience
@@sundayusikpo3064an important role doesn’t mean she she intercedes for you in heaven, the centurion had great faith in Jesus that doesn’t mean because of his faith he could do things for us, saints interceding from heaven is unbiblical because only Jesus is perfect and sinless and is the one that takes us to the father.
@@danieljuarez1465The centurion was a heathen who believed so Jesus in his compassion heard him. Mary the blessed mother was approached by an angel to do a task for God. There is no one who did a task for God that wasnt rewarded. The blessed mother carried God for 9 months and take care of him for nearly 30 years. Stop sinning against the Holy spirit by insulting the mother of Jesus.
Thank you Sam for that biblical ground on why the Catholics are honoring Blessed Virgin Mary and by asking her, the Mother of God to pray for us to our Lord Jesus Christ. She is indeed the Mother of the Holy Church that has been denied by her sons and daughters who claim to be protestant. I know your love upon your children always remains the same. I know that you always pray for all your children to your Son, our Lord, Jesus Christ most especially the one who deliberately denied you, Martin Luther and taught his followers to dump you. With your heart that is immaculate, i am sure, you always pray for their forgiveness so that the😊 prayer of Jesus, your Son 'may all be one' will be fulfilled in God's time. Mother Mary, pray for us❤❤❤
I always felt Mary was being a good mother and was giving Jesus the encouragement and confidence to start his ministry. To me, that is what mothers do.
I am so touched and blessed by this sermon. I thank you and the holy spirit for revealing the truth. God bless you Sam. By the way I got this message. Thankyou.
Wow wow wow! God Bless you Sir. I have beem a Catholic my whole life and never heard the wedidng of Cana explained this way. Light bulb 💡 moment. I love all you youtube Apologists I have learned so much ❤ Our Blessed Mother is truly a holy intercessor. Let us all pray the Rosary for these wonderful Apologists.
How many Catholics out there take their Bible to church? I went 40 years without it! What sense does that make if Jesus is the word and the word is the Bible???
@@JamesSliger-k1i we have a Missal to follow of course. We don't need to bring the Bible. That would be odd. if you attend Mass every Sunday for 3yrs you would have read the Bible. It's been read to me over 10x. However I took my faith and salvation for granted as a cradle Catholic so I did a lot of day dreaming in mass. It is my failing. My formal religious learning ended when i was 12. My parents were very working class immigrants with limited schooling and they grew up poor and attended church pre Vatican Ii in their youth. Growung up I attend mass in another language so sometimes the Homily goes over my head, Catholics go Church to adore celebrate and participate in Christ death and resurrection. The priest interpretation of the Bible and hour long sermon is not why we go to church. It is Christ's living presence in the Eucharist is why we go. We don't require a theological degree.
Psalms 45:9-17 “Kings' daughters were among thy HONORABLE women: upon thy right hand did stand the QUEEN (Rev. 12) in gold of Ophir. Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father's house; So shall the KING GREATLY DESIRE THY BEAUTY: for HE IS THY LORD; and worship thou him (only). And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift (Lk. 1:28); even the rich among the people shall ENTREAT THY FAVOUR (intercession). The king's daughter is all GLORIOUS WITHIN (immaculate): her clothing is of wrought gold. SHE shall be brought unto the king in raiment of needlework: the virgins (religious women) her companions that follow her shall be brought unto thee. With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought: they shall enter into the king's palace (heaven). Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children (mother of the christians) whom thou mayest make princes (bishops) in all the earth. I WILL make THY NAME to be REMEMBERED IN ALL GENERATIONS (Lk. 1:48) therefore shall the people PRAISE THEE FOR EVER AND EVER.”
Wrong. The blessed mother is without sin. Mary NEVER committed a sin, and that's why she will crush Satan's head because she never gave in to sin. She is pure and sinless, the perfect mother of God.
You think the Mother of God was in sin? Dear oh dear how Satan has twisted and destroyed man's ability to discern. How can the MOTHER OF Christ - Carry the Lord Jesus while in sin? You honestly believe Jesus was born of a Sinner?
As a protestant, I have no idea why you think protestants think Mary was sinning by asking... I've NEVER heard that before. Jesus always taught in a way that tested a person's faith. He was always pushing people. Mary wasn't special here, just the first.
Personally, I think he was honoring his mother's request. As the law commands to honor your parents The request wasn't sinful as making or drinking wine (besides drunkenness) isn't sinful. First time I've heard of this belief (that Christ rebuked Mary for her sin)
Yes, it’s definitive evidential support for that doctrine. Also, note that the servants didn’t stop and ask for Mary’s intercession. She was watching. She noticed their need because she always keeps her eyes on her children. That’s how attentive a mother she is to us. When Jesus was dying on the Cross, he said “to his beloved disciple“ (we are his beloved disciples), “ behold your mother”. With his dying breath, Jesus gave his mother to us. And what did the “beloved disciple” do? He took her into his home.
Paul notes many intercessors. “For kings and for all that are in high station: that we may lead a quiet and a peaceable life in all piety and chastity.” (1 Tim 2:2, DRC) He asks the Church for prayers and intercession on his behalf. “Brethren, pray for us.” (1 Th 5:25, DRC) And on behalf of a deceased Christian and his family, praying for his soul at the day of judgment. “16. The Lord give mercy to the house of Onesiphorus: because he hath often refreshed me and hath not been ashamed of my chain: 17. But when he was come to Rome, he carefully sought me and found me. 18. The Lord grant unto him to find mercy of the Lord in that day. And in how many things he ministered unto me at Ephesus, thou very well knowest.” (2 Tim 1:16-18, DRC)
He is right, Mary intercede for everyone, not Catholics alone. This was prefigured in the OT when the Queen mother ie Solomon’s mother acted as intercessor and Queen mother 1King 2:13-20 Mary is Queen mother and can intercede
It's amazing how god made it all unfold like this while simultaneously taking our free choice into account through all of salvation history. Truly beyond our comprehension, we cant worship him enough
We have been telling this to our Protestant brothers & sisters for over 400 Years and they refuse to listen & understand the meaning of the Wedding at Cana. And at the hour of our death when our souls will be judged, Mary will intercede on our behalf yet again for her mercy knows no bounds.
Check my answer anyway let me post here again.What is Sam really arguing about? Because i have never heard in my church saying that Jesus rebuked Mary 😅 but we were taught that it was her faith that made Jesus do the miracle even before time hence our faith will move the hands of God quickly. 2nd he said we think Mary is a sinner 😅 no Sam we were taught that she is blessed among all woman she was favored by God. But I have a question here Romans 3:23 says ALL have sinned so should Mary be included here? It did not specify who is not included it says ALL . I love ❤Catholics we worship Jesus the manner maybe be different but they take Him as God and so do i..
@@Suredo-y5m "All" does not always mean "All" - for we know that babies have not sinned - those without mental faculties to know right from wrong can't sin - this verse, St. Paul is referencing Psalm 14 - he says " No one seeks the Lord - no one does what is right": - so, what group of people are being referenced?
@@julielabrecque6416 check the dictionary what's the meaning of ALL everyone No Exception please go ahead n check the meaning..Babies are not sinners but since we are born through Adam we naturally come in a broken relationship with God hence when Jesus was born it was a virgin birth not the sexually one. Jesus came to die for mankind the bible says He came to die for the world it did not make any exception whatsoever To conclude every one of Adam has taken his sinful nature becz only after they were thrown out God said Eve will give birth in pain. They did not give birth when they were in God's. presence. Many may have not done any sin but being born of adan the sinful state or nature is default
@@julielabrecque6416 check the meaning of ALL it means everyone with no exception. We being born of Adam no matter babies or anyone may not have sinned but the sinful nature of adam is by default in us. When adam was in God's presence they did not have kids after God cast them away by saying eve will labor in pain that's the consequences of them disobeying God. When they were in heaven there was no pain after they came down they suffered so we all are born of adam except Jesus who had the virgin birth. Babies and the ones with mental health who doesn't know what they are doing I would say they are NOT SINNERS but being born from adam by default it comes to generations hence we needed the resurrection to conquer all sins.
@@Suredo-y5m The Virgin Mary is not included among siners. Salvation History teaches that, beginning with just after the Fall of Adam and Eve, God promised not to abandon mankind, but that He would send them a new Adam and a new Eve: Genesis 3:15 15. I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; They will strike at your head, while you strike at their heel. In other words, "enmity" means the devil could have No Power over Mary at any point in her life. She was specifically created, according to the Greek manuscript: Luke 1:28 (Greek manuscript) 28. και εισελθων ο αγγελος προς αυτην ειπεν χαιρε κεχαριτωμενη ο κυριος μετα σου ευλογημενη συ εν γυναιξιν Translation: Luke 1:28. 28. And upon entering, the Angel said to her: "Hail, full of grace. The Lord is with you. Blessed are you among women." Such greeting reveals fullness of grace had been applied to the Virgin Mary the moment she was conceived. It couldn't be any other way, since the future Son of God, conceived in her womb, could not inherit sin from a "sinful" woman. Therefore, the Virgin Mary is "Forever at all times full of grace". May God bless your discernment.
Isaiah 1:22 Your silver has become dross, your choice wine is diluted with water. Is there a connection to this verse. Perhaps showing that once Israel was like wine but became watered down. Now the water is being turned into wine . Restoring Israel
@@FierceMouse i m not saying that there should be one church only. I m saying churches to be united and respectful to each other. #Note - Church means People who follow Christ. Now read it again. Thank you.
@@FierceMouse Really. Read it again and notice what Jesus and the apostles say about divisions in the church. I’m always stunned when Protestants who supposedly know the Bible better than Catholics say such things as you. You have been taught to only read what supports Protestant ideology.
@frisco61 -Any Examples? Galatians 1:9-11 As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, let him be accursed. For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ. For I would have you know, brothers, that the gospel that was preached by me is not man's gospel.
Hail Mary Full of Grace, The Lord is with you. Blessed are you among women. Blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus. Holy Mary Mother of God. Pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death .AMEN
No no no …. Catholicism added those words to scripture. We noticed you didn’t quote a Bible scripture. Instead. You gave a Roman Catholicism equal to the other gods of Rome quote. Please think this through & break the generational curse that has robbed many of their relationships with God, his Son Jesus & the Holy Spirit. Please 🙏
@@ElogheneOmoefe-Okoro Catholics believe Mary is alive in Heaven & has power to receive their prayers & give them to Jesus since they think Jesus won’t tell his mother no on anything. They are really messed up.
John 11:25-26 "Jesus told her, 'I am the resurrection and the life; whoever believes in me, even if he dies, will live, and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?'"
And God would’ve likely still gone through with his plan for Israel as he promised, but the Bible says Moses interceded for Israel several times and saved them from God’s wrath
And yet Jesus would not come out to her when she requested him. He was only honoring his parent as the commandment instructed. Mary was a wonderful woman, blessed to bring forth Jesus, but still only a woman, born in sin, who sinned as every other human. There is only one mediator between God and man, the man Jesus Christ.
or maybe her request didn’t negatively effect the will of the Father, and so He honored the request of a righteous woman. it’s really that simple, you’re so blinded by hatred for tradition that you can’t see through the deception satan leaves amongst the protestant churches
"O Mary, Conceived without Sin, Pray for Us Who Have Recourse to Thee" I think she taught this prayer to us in Fatima in 1917... confirming the dogma of 1854 (I think)
How stupid can you putestants be... What kind of God do you believe in which accepts a filthy vessel for himself... definitely not the God I worship, the triune God.
Thank you for your thorough explanation of the 1st miracle Jesus performed at Cana, and the importance the Theotokos played in God's plan of redemption for Humankind. God bless you Sam. Amen
Mary intercedes for the guests and wedding party, plus compassion and love by Christ. "Woman" was a title, from Genesis. M ary the Second Eve. Mary as intercessor told Jesus his hour had come. Love it Sam!
And it should be pointed out that Eve¹ came from Adam¹ while Mary(Last Eve) gave birth to the body of Jesus(Last Adam), a reversal! It's a blessing to be schooled by the Holy Spirit through you Elder Brother Sam.
@@Nkoti-Ooks-tv7xv Calling her 'Woman' connects her with Eve who was also called 'Woman' - which means 'Mother of all the living.' Eve is the mother of all the living from birth. Mary is the Mother of all the living from rebirth (in Christ with the Holy Spirit). So by analogy Mary is called the 'Second Eve'. The Holy Spirit and Mary brought Jesus into the world. Likewise, the Holy Spirit and Mary bring the 'One body in Christ' into the world - the Church.
If Christ is the new Adam the church should be the new Eve because according to Genesis Adam and Eve were husband and wife and in Revelation, the church is Christ bride not Mary. Sorry if I sound offensive.
@@outofoblivionproductions4015 so calling God FATHER should imply He has a wife, & there is a mother? You, & those holding to this unscriptural notion or heretical teaching will do well to stick to ONLY what is WRITTEN, & remain within the boundary lines of HOLY SCRIPTURE!
This came to mind: Hos 2:19 and Hos 2:23 (“I will betroth you to Me forever; Yes, I will betroth you to Me in righteousness and in justice, In lovingkindness and in compassion,) (“I will sow her for Myself in the land. I will also have compassion on her who had not obtained compassion, And I will say to those who were not My people, ‘You are My people!’ And they will say, ‘You are my God!’”) Thank you for the lesson in Love and compassion from this Wedding at Cana.
Mary is the 𝗪𝗼𝗺𝗮𝗻 in Genesis 3:15! Please get that. I wish you would've explained that to this guy. In the following verse, God is speaking to the devil. "I will put enmities between thee and the 𝘄𝗼𝗺𝗮𝗻, and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head, and thou shalt lie in wait for her heel." Genesis 3:15 DR-V I once heard a Protestant radio show a couple of decades ago explaining that the "woman" in Genesis 3:15 was Eve! What?! That's not Eve! That's Mary!
@@carapompillaWhy sorry? Nothing for which to be sorry. You can comment whatever you wish to comment even though others may have commented the same. All is good. 😊👍🏼🙏🏼❤️
@@soun6589I did not misquote anything! I'm using the Douay-Rheims version. That's why I put "DR-V" after the book, chapter, and verse. Since Mary was the one struck at by the serpent, she indirectly crushes the serpent's head through her Son. It is her seed that crushes the Serpent's head since Jesus crushed his head from the Cross.
Sam, You're teaching, It's good except Mary, Is NOt the queen of heaven! And the Pope is NOT the authority of GOD and Jesus Christ on earth!!! And this, my brother is why it is a false religion! It has changed the ten commandments and done away with the sabbath! I pray brother that the Lord. We'll take the scales off of your eyes and let you see the truth! Jesus is the way the truth and the life. No one comes to the father except through Him! Shalom
I have no idea what you are going on about with this weird Protestants think Mary was in sin here. You don’t have to be in sin to be rebuked. He didn’t tell her to repent. Nor does Mary need to be sinless for Jesus to honor her request. It honestly feels like you are trying to read traditions and troubles of men into these verses. Mary knew who her son would be before he was born. It would make sense for her to ask things of him. It also makes sense for Jesus, who was perfect in the law, to honor his mother. As long as it isn’t in direct opposition to the will of his father Jesus would honor this request. This has nothing to do with Mary being perfect or sinless, but just the mother of Jesus and Jesus being perfect. I don’t get half of what you are talking about here.
You have no idea about half of what he’s saying because of your Protestant background, you aren’t taught the Marion theology of the Apostolic Churches.
But what did Jesus had against Mary what did she do to deserve to be rebuked by Him? What would be the reason for anyone even to say that Jesus rebuked her it does not make any sense. I think for Jesus to call Mary woman meant something else. It was to show He has separate Himself from her and now He does not considering her to be His mother any more but His future bride. That is why her role has change from a mother to a bride.
Exactly, he’s reaching with trying to say that Mary or any other Saint intercedes or mediated for us from heaven, Mary is blessed among women, and full of grace which is basically giving people what they do not deserve or God giving her what she doesn’t deserve, because even our righteousness is as filthy rags.
@@raydrew201 Even early Christians prayed to Mary (for her intercession with Jesus). They even have 2nd century prayers to Saints/Martyrs written on the interior walls of the Christian Catacombs. (2nd century means the years in the 100’s era, of course). Mary has no power of her own - it’s all by God’s will and Grace. Be like the early Christians. Only a minority of modern ones deny that she intercedes for believers.
@@TrueChristianityWithSandra you are talking about catholic catacombs in Europe, the early “church” started with Judea and spread farther into Africa prior to Europe taking portions of it and mixing it with polytheism, which is the worship of many gods, don’t confuse the bastardization of Christianity by men, with actual scriptural doctrine. Scripture says that the minority will find life eternal and the majority will find destruction. It never took long for just a generation or two to descend into false worship, examples all throughout scripture. You can confess your sins one to another on earth, forgiving one another and praying for one another, but not to the dead.
Refer Genesis 3:15 where God told the serpent "I will put enmity between you and a Woman, between your seed and her seed.." so here Jesus was referring to a very Woman to whom the LORD Was referring and Jesus is the SEED of that woman (Mary). Remember Mary is not and never older than Jesus. So Jesus was not rebuking her rather He was exalting her reminding people of the promise Made by his Almighty YAHWE TO PURNISH THE Satan
But what did Jesus had against Mary what did she do to deserve to be rebuked by Him? What would be the reason for anyone even to say that Jesus rebuked her it does not make any sense. I think for Jesus to call Mary woman meant something else. It was to show He has separate Himself from her and now He does not considering her to be His mother any more but His future bride. That is why her role has change from a mother to a bride.
Sam According of your logic??? Pharisees came to Jesus and asked for centurion to heal his servant, (they said -“Do this to him, because he loves our people and built synagogue for us). Is IT proof that those Pharisees are holy and we should paint icons on them??? Good stretching the Scriptures Sam, stop doing it
Yes, this men were holy, they spoke to God and He made a miracle according their belief. Yes, they are painted. No, they werent protestant pastors. Yes, they were orthodox of their time. Yes, the truth is their, as the Lord sain, not from Samarites.
You need to see the Sistine Chappel, see Last Supper both by Michaelangelo. Raphael's Transfiguration, De Vinci's Annunciation and if you don't see the beauty and the hand of God in those artworks then you need to listen to God, not men.
Breaking one of the commandment will not let you go to hell, you're just called the least in heaven. Read about the part where Jesus was asked by the Pharisees which commandment was the greatest... It will be a game changer. Love indeed covers a multitude of sins.
I have heard many different teachings on this and they all had some part of it but they also seemed off. I never felt that I really understood this and was missing something that I was clueless about. THANKS FOR THE VERY SATISFYING EXPLANATION. I also believed Mary didnt doubt because she must have witnessed some miracles when he was younger thus her faith that he could. And because she knew him she knew he would.
@4:02 I've NEVER heard any so-called protestant say Jesus rebuked Mary by saying woman my hour has not yet come. What many say is that Jesus was moved by her faith. Stop pitching one against the other unnecessarily.
@@glennyskitchen9491 be specific. John Macarthur has several sermons. Which specific one? And even so, is that a general claim among the so-called protestants as Sam claims?
@@glennyskitchen9491 and yet not a single time have I heard that from any so-called protestant. Is that what protestants believe in general? No! So why pitch protestants against catholics when they don't make such claim?
@@ChrisPBacon-yz6nkI've learn more the truth by reading the Bible then I do with Sam. Sam is a good story teller to listen while around a campfire with many personal anecdotes opinion and his own interpretation. He likes to embellish anything about the Catholic religion and it's false doctrine to make it look good but does not know what he is talking about. He have been indoctrinated into believing in this lie and he also will go to hell for lying. The Bible says all liars will have their part in the lake of fire and it only takes one lie to end up there Sam. From a Protestant to a Catholic what a bad turn he should be turning to the true church of Jesus Christ which is His body "THE ROCK, HIGH PRIEST AND CORNERSTONE OF OUR FAITH AND SALVATION and become a Bible-believer Bible obeying born-again Christian.
@@ChrisPBacon-yz6nk Read my comment again. I said that "Protestants just don't get" meaning they don't understand. I never said not taught. Being taught something doesn't mean that you automatically understand. If you understood, then you wouldn't be accusing us of worshiping Mary or having her as an idol.
@@1Hope4All “Make No Graven Image” That is literally what the Catholic church does. Images of Mary and other Saints. Maybe not you but many will kneel before these and even more will pray to them. If they could speak to you they would tell you not to do that. Why would anyone pray to the servant when the King of Kings has exhorted them to come boldly to the Throne of Grace, into the very presence of the King and voice your prayers directly to Him. You will find nothing in scripture to support this practice but you will find the Apostles admonishing people for seemingly or tacitly worshipping them. Many do it to Francis and other popes in the past. It’s an abomination.
Mary's request for wine at Cana's wedding was amazingly wonderful. Despite the time had not yet come for Jesus to perform His first miracle, she was honorably favored by God!!!!
Sam, I agree with you every single time you teach as a Biblicist. Like you, i grew up in the Baptist church, but now strive to understand the Bible as the First Century Christians would have. I have noticed you placing much emphasis on what the early church taught but hope you will always weigh doctrine to God’s Holy Word. As a child growing up I was always taught to live Mary; she is the mother or our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. However, if you can please point me to the passage of scripture that instructs me to pray to Mary or in the name of Mary, I would appreciate it. I read in the Bible to pray to the Father through Jesus and that Jesus is the only mediator between us and God the Father. No disrespect to Mary, I just don’t read where we are instructed to pray to her? Thanks and God bless you Brother!
I'm a Protestant and I have never in my 50 years heard this passage preached as a rebuke against Mary or some kind of implication of sin. NEVER EVER. It's always been preached as a great testament to her faith. Now I will remind you, ALL OF YOU that you couldn't even read this passage in a language you can understand without men like Martin Luther.
A mistranslation you mean ? And removing 7 books ? And almost removing the book of James cause it didn’t line up with HIS doctrine? He removed the 7 books because HE thought since it wasn’t in the Hebrew bible, it shouldn’t be in the Bible, just cause it was in the Septuagint (the Greek version), which was still read in Jewish synagogues and Jesus and his apostles quoted the Septuagint 2/3 more than the Hebrew. Also the printing press was made like 70 years prior.
@@VirilitasEtRatio What happened to those who used the printing press to print the Bible in the common language in those days? I'll tell you what, they were BURNED AT THE STAKE! Also, where in the Bible does Jesus or the apostles instruct people to give money to the Church in exchange for salvation? That's what the corrupted Catholic Church was preaching to the people of Germany and elsewhere at the time.
@@VirilitasEtRatioin Acts Peter says to Ananias “why has satan filled your heart…”. Satan can fill the heart of a person and bate right standing Christian’s, whoever they may be, into arguments. Just saying
The word Women, is a title of honour in the Bible times..... A better translation from Greek, into "weak" English, would be something like......, "Oh honoured Women"
But what did Jesus had against Mary what did she do to deserve to be rebuked by Him? What would be the reason for anyone even to say that Jesus rebuked her it does not make any sense.

@@jpd4676 how can you make such a big jump from one word when it's well known woman was a respectful way to address someone in that time and no one thinks she was being rebuked never heard one person say that
@@saltking2420 When Jesus called Mary "Woman" it was a way to show gradually he is distancing himself from her that her role has been done. If Jesus wanted to keep having a close relationship with here He would have still called her mother out of respect for what she has done therefore He did not. Would you ever called your biological mother woman or have you ever called her that way? Well certainly not for the respect you still have for your mother you would still address her as your mother and considered her role has not changed. No one would either unless they have no more respect for their mother. Think about this. Would you address Mary “Woman" yourself or "Mother” when you pray to her? I bet you won't. Every Catholics call her "My mother" never "My woman" Now ask yourself then why did Jesus Christ called his mother “Woman”? People would say you have more respect to her calling her mother than Jesus and she was not even your biological mother but she was to Jesus.
I’m a Protestant also, I don’t know what church Sam went to back when he was a Protestant but we were NEVER taught that Jesus rubuked Mary…what?! And what’s with all this “Prots hate Mary” talk? to my Catholics brothers and sisters Sam Shamoun is an AMAZING scholar but he isn’t the 2nd coming of Jesus, he can be wrong and he teaching that “prots hate Mary” isn’t just wrong it really is the devil’s work via his pride…Protestants love Mary she is the mother of God the son of course we think she is special! We just don’t use her and the Saints to intercede prayer only because scripture doesn’t say so, that’s it. I love Sam and I’m thankful he is on the Christian side he really is amazing but guys we even have to question his actions and choices sometimes he is not perfect like Jesus
There is One Holy and Apostolic Church. There are probably more than 40,000 or more Protestant churches that all have different teachings because that is how they are created, someone wants to interpret some scriptures differently so they're off and making another Protestant church. Protestants have protested their own original break away church over 40,000 times.
Over my last 36 years as a practicing Catholic I’ve heard Protestants disparage Mary many many times. Lots of times from preachers right here on TH-cam. It really is a thing.
Am Protestant from Ethiopia 🇪🇹 and god blessed you your explanation is 🤯 i learn many thing and i known i don't known anything ☺️but some Ethiopia protestant church don't learn this things 🙏
Most likely the main reason why Jesus did do the miracle was to honor His mother, not to venerate her or because she has some power or is sinless or anything like that. Honor your mother and Father, clearly the Father allowed it to be so Jesus would even show He honored His earthly mother, thats it. Never ever have I heard a protestant think Jesus was telling her off out of anger or rebuking her.
You're not listening, Sam said that when Jesus made water into wine, the miracle was made by the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. If the triune God also honors Mary, why do protestants downplay Mary?
@philtanics1082 so what about statues. You have pictures of your parents right and grandparents and stuff like that correct who are absolutely nobody but we can't have statues right? You are not logical
As a protestant, I have no idea what Sam is arguing against. We don't teach that Mary was sinning here. We simply do not venerate her as if she is in heaven now with Christ next to the Father/ having omnipresence as if she were God. And for the record, I don't hate other churches. that's crazy.
Jesus as the new Adam, Mary as the new eve. God the father did not mean for humans to sin. Jesus and Mary repaired the damage of satan .Gods original plan is back on track.
@@TheBestVibeYT no, Jesus is called "new Adam" in the Bible, while Mary is called "new Eve" in the Bible when st Paul calls Her "Woman" , so and so does Jesus. Why did they not call Her Mary or Mom? Church Fathers call Her that too
@@patttrick Mary isn't the new Eve, that isn't anywhere in the Bible. Mary isn't sinless or God. In Adam all die, in Christ all live (who are in Christ). How is this comparable to Mary? there is no comparison to be made.
@@TheBestVibeYTJesus most definitely is the new Adam! He's also the new Moses!

If you studied Biblical Typology, you would know this.
He still can't prove anywhere in scripture where we are to pray to Mary or kneel before her statues . This guy is full of pride, the exact opposite of Jesus Christ.
@@knowthywalk8908Huh The thought is in scripture. You just refuse it. Do you follow what the Holy Spirit reveals? Also, Can you also point out where in scripture that it contains all Jesus teachings?
@@jeazurlantes Why would you need intercession of Mary? Is our Lord Jesus intercession not enough? Lord never teaches to pray to Mary or ask her for intercession. Holy Spirit in us is Spirit of Christ, Spirit of God, and intercedes for us. Holy Spirit is not spirit of Mary. Do you understand that having Holy Spirit means having Jesus Christ? Think about that, meditate upon that taught, and ask, why would I need intercession of Mary if I have Jesus? At wedding, DESCIPLES did not needed intercession of Mary, because they were with Jesus and Jesus was with them. Think about that. God bless you! Lord Jesus be with you!
He's the Mediator and Intercessor from us to the Father, but we, all the Angels and the Saints especially Mother Mary are called to intercede for each other. Don't confuse the grapes too much.

@ShamounianExplains Hello Sam .
Question . Christ says John the Baptist was the greatest born of men. Would this also include being greater than his mother Mary ? Thanks
On your answer to the question: “Why did Jesus call Mary woman?”…I must respectfully disagree. As a life long Catholic and a soldier in the Marian Army, I have always been told that Jesus was calling his blessed mother, “Sinless One” when he called her woman. Eve did not receive her name until immediately after eating of the tree of knowledge. Prior to that she (Eve) was referred to as woman 8 times. At La Salette, Our Lady was asked her name by Saint Bernadette, her reply, “I am the Immaculate Conception”. Jesus was honoring his mother and identifying her as the Immaculate One.
@@mikecastelluccio7072 Just as Water turned into wine at the wedding, the wine will turn into His Blood at another wedding feast. I strongly believe that the wedding at Cana foreshadowed the magnificent wedding of the Lamb mentioned in Revelation 17. Furthermore, it is crucial to emphasize that the wedding feast is an essential belief that all Christians should embrace. The holy Eucharist!
@@evanzanyswer6295 Actually, Evan, the wine turns into the blood of Jesus Christ at each and every Catholic Mass. If at all possible, go to Mass daily just as Our Lord instructed us in the one and only prayer that he taught us. This is what he meant when He said, give us this day our daily (Luke 11:3) super substantial (Matthew 6:11) bread” in The Lord’s Prayer. Obviously, this is meant to signify the Holy Eucharist.
@@mikecastelluccio7072I have a question why would you go to Matt 6 and Luke 11 for instructions about eucharist observance when the Lord gives none in the verses that cover the topic. Now I do not fault any one for daily communion because it is commendable but to teach that it should be done daily adds to scripture that is not there.
sam i love you in Christ ,im a Christian of protestant background ,ive never heard of any protestant preacher,or other fellowship christian say that JESUS rebuked His mother Mary ,MARY is always spoke of as Blessed ,ive never been taught anything but just what you taught here ,,,,Blessings Brother
You are not all protestants! Just because you were not taught that Jesus rebuked Mary in that verse does not mean that no other Protestant was not taught that.
I have run into many Protestants who argued with me saying that Jesus rebuked His mother because He called her woman and told her that it wasn't His time.
*Edit to add:*
I do 𝙉𝙊𝙏 believe that Jesus rebuked Mary! People seem to be getting confused about what I'm saying.

Wow. How amazing that this actually makes biblical sense. Thank Sam. There are so many gems untold, yet to be reveal through those touched by His Grace. May God continue to reveal His hidden word to you. Be blessed.
As a catholic I thank you Sam, for giving Mother Mary the respect she deserves, I know Jesus will be happy about you defending her. I think what we all need to remember is that Jesus worked his very first miracle for his mother. Also the greeting from the angel Gabriel "Hail Mary full of Grace", not half full but full, going on to say the Lord is with you and blessed are you amongst woman, because her womb was to contain the second person of the trinity, the son of God.
Greek word:
Κεχαριτωμένη (source)
Transliteration:
Kecharitomene
Translation:
Literally,” You, who have been graced” (You that are highly favored, KJV)
English:
You (Second Person Singular)
Have (present tense)
Been (past participle of “to be”)
Graced (past participle of “to grace”).
Greek:
KE - perfect tense (prior event/occurrence/happening that is still existing/occurring or happening now)
CHARITO - a gift, something that is free or unmerited
MENE - a female receiver not giver.
The Latin translation “gratia plena” (full of grace, as found in Dhouay-Rheims) is not a literal translation from the Greek."
True Jesus Christ always respect her mother,as in 10 commandment say respect your mother and father..and as we respect and obey our parent
Mary is not some holy deity that needs to be idolized. Thats IDOLATRY and is not biblical
Yes if something is full of grace there's no place for sin.
The protestant Bible has " HAIL Mary Highly FAVOURED" 😂.... THEY TOOK OUT " FULL OF GRACE" and replaced it with Highly favored. "... CHEATERS 😂
I'm protestant and never thought He was rebuking Mary.
Your testimony and revelation brings tears. You speak with the power of the Spirit and word’s that strike like missiles! God bless and continue to give you strength, energy and all you need.

You are a Catholic and you don’t know the truth. Get in a Bible study ( Catholic) and you will know the truth. This is so untrue.

Soo beautiful, Thanks Sam for protesting that this lad has the skill to read the text, dwell on it and come to a conclusion not just to rely on ANY specific church doctrine. May we all see what God wants us to see and not anything destructive
It also shows another prophetic message of Christ.
The bridegroom and the bride is the Church and Christ.
The church of the time was empty. It was not fulfilled.
The wedding (the church of the day) had finished all the wine (Grace based on sacrifice) that it had. It was to be humiliated.
It was only when Jesus became the "best wine" (blood of the the new testament) at the "end of the celebration" (Passion) that the church was fulfilled.
His hour (Passion, to shed the blood/wine) had not yet come.
Woooooww. Blessed is the Lord Jesus.
Thank you, great comment 👍👍
Best explanation 🙏🙏
So his hour is not yet come not just for starting the ministry, but to give the wine which connects to the new covenant.
I never connected the dots.
I thank the Holy Spirt within you same for delivering this message. May you continue to hear the Holy Spirit and May God bring you the grace of his love. Peace be with you and your family brother.
Brilliant explanation !!!! Praise be to Jesus Christ ....
God instituted wedding, Mary's request was honorable because it was unselfish and Jesus being her son honored his mother, she had full faith in her son. God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit knew ahead the miracle would be performed and it was so. God knew it would work out and end beautifully, proving His glory.
Sam thank you and may the good Lord bless and your family in abundance 🙏
The term "woman" was an honourable address in the language spoken by Our Lord, when addressing a female.
But what did Jesus had against Mary what did she do to deserve to be rebuked by Him? What would be the reason for anyone even to say that Jesus rebuked her it does not make any sense. I think for Jesus to call Mary woman meant something else. It was to show He has separate Himself from her and now He does not considering her to be His mother any more but His future bride. That is why her role has change from a mother to a bride.
Jesus also called many females ‘Woman’ in his ministry eg The Woman at the Well, The Woman caught in Adultery & others…
Matthew 15: 28, Luke 13: 12, John 4: 21, John 8:10, John 20: 15
Matthew 12:48-50 (NIV)
He replied to him, “Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?” Pointing to his disciples, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers. For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.”
I loved the connection with the 6 jars and sabbath, day of rest.
Jesus knew this would be asked of him and his reply, I believe, was to show that when he said ‘his hour had not come’ meant the hour of Wine being served at the eternal Feast with his Bride the church and the final eternal wedding. And the shedding of his blood for his bride.
I didn’t equate it to mean the hour of his miracles.
the water the Jews used for purification was replaced with the blood of Christ, the true purification of the New Covenant, so that part I understand but I felt everything said is for our benefit. To be taught this was the only way we can be purified. By his blood, (wine)
I’d made a comment about this a couple of days ago on one of these posts too.
It’s fascinating hearing many teachings and the grace of God allowing us to test the spirits to see if we too are in agreement.

Stop sinning against the Holy spirit by insulting the mother of Jesus.
Thank you Sam for that biblical ground on why the Catholics are honoring Blessed Virgin Mary and by asking her, the Mother of God to pray for us to our Lord Jesus Christ. She is indeed the Mother of the Holy Church that has been denied by her sons and daughters who claim to be protestant. I know your love upon your children always remains the same. I know that you always pray for all your children to your Son, our Lord, Jesus Christ most especially the one who deliberately denied you, Martin Luther and taught his followers to dump you. With your heart that is immaculate, i am sure, you always pray for their forgiveness so that the😊 prayer of Jesus, your Son 'may all be one' will be fulfilled in God's time. Mother Mary, pray for us❤❤❤
I always felt Mary was being a good mother and was giving Jesus the encouragement and confidence to start his ministry. To me, that is what mothers do.
Jesus would have done his ministry regardless of her encouragement and confidence
I am so touched and blessed by this sermon. I thank you and the holy spirit for revealing the truth. God bless you Sam. By the way I got this message. Thankyou.
I thank you for the explanation of this text. Am blessed
Wow wow wow! God Bless you Sir. I have beem a Catholic my whole life and never heard the wedidng of Cana explained this way. Light bulb 💡 moment. I love all you youtube Apologists I have learned so much ❤ Our Blessed Mother is truly a holy intercessor. Let us all pray the Rosary for these wonderful Apologists.
How many Catholics out there take their Bible to church? I went 40 years without it! What sense does that make if Jesus is the word and the word is the Bible???
@@JamesSliger-k1i we have a Missal to follow of course. We don't need to bring the Bible. That would be odd. if you attend Mass every Sunday for 3yrs you would have read the Bible. It's been read to me over 10x. However I took my faith and salvation for granted as a cradle Catholic so I did a lot of day dreaming in mass. It is my failing. My formal religious learning ended when i was 12. My parents were very working class immigrants with limited schooling and they grew up poor and attended church pre Vatican Ii in their youth. Growung up I attend mass in another language so sometimes the Homily goes over my head, Catholics go Church to adore celebrate and participate in Christ death and resurrection. The priest interpretation of the Bible and hour long sermon is not why we go to church. It is Christ's living presence in the Eucharist is why we go. We don't require a theological degree.
@@Sandy-oj7ig do you think Jesus wants to be celebrated once a week?
@@JamesSliger-k1i there is daily mass in every Catholic Church 🙄
@@Sandy-oj7ig how many people go daily? Do you? I bet not.

Thank you brother Sam,that was brilliant. I understand now. 🙏🙏🙏❤️
There you go Sam bravo
CP, you are truly blessed, and under the guidance of the Holy Spirit truly. You shall know the truth, and it shall set you free.
Psalms 45:9-17
“Kings' daughters were among thy HONORABLE women: upon thy right hand did stand the QUEEN (Rev. 12) in gold of Ophir. Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father's house; So shall the KING GREATLY DESIRE THY BEAUTY: for HE IS THY LORD; and worship thou him (only). And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift (Lk. 1:28); even the rich among the people shall ENTREAT THY FAVOUR (intercession). The king's daughter is all GLORIOUS WITHIN (immaculate): her clothing is of wrought gold. SHE shall be brought unto the king in raiment of needlework: the virgins (religious women) her companions that follow her shall be brought unto thee. With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought: they shall enter into the king's palace (heaven). Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children (mother of the christians) whom thou mayest make princes (bishops) in all the earth. I WILL make THY NAME to be REMEMBERED IN ALL GENERATIONS (Lk. 1:48) therefore shall the people PRAISE THEE FOR EVER AND EVER.”
Ohh nice, I have to look this one up. Thanks.

Exactly!!!🙏🏻
I'm blessed by your explanation, Sam. May Jesus bless you always.
Jesus bless you always, Brother Sam! Good job rebuking & correcting the brother for repeating OM* in vain!
Never heard anyone claiming Mary is in sin. Where did that come from?
We love you Sam
Luke1:47 teaches Mary is in sin and that she thanks God for her Saviour.
The Preserved from sin is also called saved same as the born wz original sin
@@JOBERHE17-j8s please show me the bible scripture where you can read that
@@staysready6791 the greeting of the Angel gabriel says it all, "Full of Grace,The Lord Is wz thee"
Wrong. The blessed mother is without sin. Mary NEVER committed a sin, and that's why she will crush Satan's head because she never gave in to sin. She is pure and sinless, the perfect mother of God.
You think the Mother of God was in sin? Dear oh dear how Satan has twisted and destroyed man's ability to discern. How can the MOTHER OF Christ - Carry the Lord Jesus while in sin? You honestly believe Jesus was born of a Sinner?
I’m here in my kitchen. Got my headphones on listening to this. Never never never made the connection. You are good wow.
As a protestant, I have no idea why you think protestants think Mary was sinning by asking... I've NEVER heard that before.
Jesus always taught in a way that tested a person's faith. He was always pushing people. Mary wasn't special here, just the first.
EpaphroditusBeltishazzar. Well said! I wonder if Sam prays to Mary as well?
@@atarahchomah1463 ... I hope not 😬
Yeah I know I've never heard that either.... I have no idea where he is getting that from
And if he is saying that Mary is sinless then why did she refer to a savior?
Personally, I think he was honoring his mother's request. As the law commands to honor your parents The request wasn't sinful as making or drinking wine (besides drunkenness) isn't sinful. First time I've heard of this belief (that Christ rebuked Mary for her sin)
Another glorious explanation Sam!
Many thanks. Deo gratias.
By hilighting the intercession of Mary, Do you prove Mary is the intercessor for those in trouble like the Catholics teach and believe?
Yes, it’s definitive evidential support for that doctrine. Also, note that the servants didn’t stop and ask for Mary’s intercession. She was watching. She noticed their need because she always keeps her eyes on her children. That’s how attentive a mother she is to us. When Jesus was dying on the Cross, he said “to his beloved disciple“ (we are his beloved disciples), “ behold your mother”. With his dying breath, Jesus gave his mother to us. And what did the “beloved disciple” do? He took her into his home.
Paul notes many intercessors.
“For kings and for all that are in high station: that we may lead a quiet and a peaceable life in all piety and chastity.” (1 Tim 2:2, DRC)
He asks the Church for prayers and intercession on his behalf.
“Brethren, pray for us.” (1 Th 5:25, DRC)
And on behalf of a deceased Christian and his family, praying for his soul at the day of judgment.
“16. The Lord give mercy to the house of Onesiphorus: because he hath often refreshed me and hath not been ashamed of my chain: 17. But when he was come to Rome, he carefully sought me and found me. 18. The Lord grant unto him to find mercy of the Lord in that day. And in how many things he ministered unto me at Ephesus, thou very well knowest.” (2 Tim 1:16-18, DRC)
He is right, Mary intercede for everyone, not Catholics alone.
This was prefigured in the OT when the Queen mother ie Solomon’s mother acted as intercessor and Queen mother 1King 2:13-20
Mary is Queen mother and can intercede
It's amazing how god made it all unfold like this while simultaneously taking our free choice into account through all of salvation history. Truly beyond our comprehension, we cant worship him enough
We have been telling this to our Protestant brothers & sisters for over 400 Years and they refuse to listen & understand the meaning of the Wedding at Cana. And at the hour of our death when our souls will be judged, Mary will intercede on our behalf yet again for her mercy knows no bounds.
Check my answer anyway let me post here again.What is Sam really arguing about? Because i have never heard in my church saying that Jesus rebuked Mary 😅 but we were taught that it was her faith that made Jesus do the miracle even before time hence our faith will move the hands of God quickly. 2nd he said we think Mary is a sinner 😅 no Sam we were taught that she is blessed among all woman she was favored by God. But I have a question here Romans 3:23 says ALL have sinned so should Mary be included here? It did not specify who is not included it says ALL . I love ❤Catholics we worship Jesus the manner maybe be different but they take Him as God and so do i..
@@Suredo-y5m "All" does not always mean "All" - for we know that babies have not sinned - those without mental faculties to know right from wrong can't sin - this verse, St. Paul is referencing Psalm 14 - he says " No one seeks the Lord - no one does what is right": - so, what group of people are being referenced?
@@julielabrecque6416 check the dictionary what's the meaning of ALL everyone No Exception please go ahead n check the meaning..Babies are not sinners but since we are born through Adam we naturally come in a broken relationship with God hence when Jesus was born it was a virgin birth not the sexually one. Jesus came to die for mankind the bible says He came to die for the world it did not make any exception whatsoever To conclude every one of Adam has taken his sinful nature becz only after they were thrown out God said Eve will give birth in pain. They did not give birth when they were in God's. presence. Many may have not done any sin but being born of adan the sinful state or nature is default
@@julielabrecque6416 check the meaning of ALL it means everyone with no exception. We being born of Adam no matter babies or anyone may not have sinned but the sinful nature of adam is by default in us. When adam was in God's presence they did not have kids after God cast them away by saying eve will labor in pain that's the consequences of them disobeying God. When they were in heaven there was no pain after they came down they suffered so we all are born of adam except Jesus who had the virgin birth. Babies and the ones with mental health who doesn't know what they are doing I would say they are NOT SINNERS but being born from adam by default it comes to generations hence we needed the resurrection to conquer all sins.
@@Suredo-y5m
The Virgin Mary is not included among siners.
Salvation History teaches that, beginning with just after the Fall of Adam and Eve, God promised not to abandon mankind, but that He would send them a new Adam and a new Eve:
Genesis 3:15
15. I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; They will strike at your head,
while you strike at their heel.
In other words, "enmity" means the devil could have No Power over Mary at any point in her life.
She was specifically created, according to the Greek manuscript:
Luke 1:28
(Greek manuscript)
28. και εισελθων ο αγγελος προς αυτην ειπεν χαιρε κεχαριτωμενη ο κυριος μετα σου ευλογημενη συ εν γυναιξιν
Translation:
Luke 1:28.
28. And upon entering, the Angel said to her: "Hail, full of grace. The Lord is with you. Blessed are you among women."
Such greeting reveals fullness of grace had been applied to the Virgin Mary the moment she was conceived.
It couldn't be any other way, since the future Son of God, conceived in her womb, could not inherit sin from a "sinful" woman.
Therefore, the Virgin Mary is "Forever at all times full of grace".
May God bless your discernment.
Amen. That is such a beautiful explanation. In Jesus name, Amen.
Isaiah 1:22
Your silver has become dross, your choice wine is diluted with water.
Is there a connection to this verse. Perhaps showing that once Israel was like wine but became watered down. Now the water is being turned into wine . Restoring Israel
Excellent 🙏
The understanding of Sam is absolutely awesome!
I hope you will unite all the churches soon.
Nothing in the bible suggests God is for ecumenism.
I see the opposite
@@FierceMouse i m not saying that there should be one church only. I m saying churches to be united and respectful to each other.

Now read it again. Thank you.
@@FierceMouse Really. Read it again and notice what Jesus and the apostles say about divisions in the church. I’m always stunned when Protestants who supposedly know the Bible better than Catholics say such things as you. You have been taught to only read what supports Protestant ideology.
@frisco61 -Any Examples?
Galatians 1:9-11
As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, let him be accursed. For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ. For I would have you know, brothers, that the gospel that was preached by me is not man's gospel.
@frisco61 - There is God's way and there is man's way.
You can't have them both
Sir sam i love you in Christ. Thank you so much for this revelation. From Nigeria.. Joseph.
Hail Mary Full of Grace, The Lord is with you. Blessed are you among women. Blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus.
Holy Mary Mother of God. Pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death .AMEN
No no no …. Catholicism added those words to scripture. We noticed you didn’t quote a Bible scripture. Instead. You gave a Roman Catholicism equal to the other gods of Rome quote. Please think this through & break the generational curse that has robbed many of their relationships with God, his Son Jesus & the Holy Spirit. Please 🙏
Stop asking the dead to intercede for you, that’s the problem. She interceded when she was alive doesn’t mean you should pray to her.
@@ElogheneOmoefe-Okoro Catholics believe Mary is alive in Heaven & has power to receive their prayers & give them to Jesus since they think Jesus won’t tell his mother no on anything. They are really messed up.
John 11:25-26
"Jesus told her, 'I am the resurrection and the life; whoever believes in me, even if he dies, will live, and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?'"
And God would’ve likely still gone through with his plan for Israel as he promised, but the Bible says Moses interceded for Israel several times and saved them from God’s wrath
Beautiful explanation 🙏
The bible is super natural, no man can make this up…….
CS Lewis said as much 😊
I love my mother she never lets us down praise be to God in the name of the Father Son and the Holy Spirit amen
And yet Jesus would not come out to her when she requested him. He was only honoring his parent as the commandment instructed. Mary was a wonderful woman, blessed to bring forth Jesus, but still only a woman, born in sin, who sinned as every other human. There is only one mediator between God and man, the man Jesus Christ.
or maybe her request didn’t negatively effect the will of the Father, and so He honored the request of a righteous woman. it’s really that simple, you’re so blinded by hatred for tradition that you can’t see through the deception satan leaves amongst the protestant churches
"O Mary, Conceived without Sin, Pray for Us Who Have Recourse to Thee"
I think she taught this prayer to us in Fatima in 1917... confirming the dogma of 1854 (I think)
How stupid can you putestants be... What kind of God do you believe in which accepts a filthy vessel for himself... definitely not the God I worship, the triune God.
God chose a sinful vessel for himself?
Mary was without sin. She was full of grace. Big difference.
Thank you for your thorough explanation of the 1st miracle Jesus performed at Cana, and the importance the Theotokos played in God's plan of redemption for Humankind. God bless you Sam. Amen
Amen!
Mary intercedes for the guests and wedding party, plus compassion and love by Christ.
"Woman" was a title, from Genesis. M ary the Second Eve.
Mary as intercessor told Jesus his hour had come.
Love it Sam!
And it should be pointed out that Eve¹ came from Adam¹ while Mary(Last Eve) gave birth to the body of Jesus(Last Adam), a reversal!
It's a blessing to be schooled by the Holy Spirit through you Elder Brother Sam.
@@Nkoti-Ooks-tv7xv Calling her 'Woman' connects her with Eve who was also called 'Woman' - which means 'Mother of all the living.' Eve is the mother of all the living from birth. Mary is the Mother of all the living from rebirth (in Christ with the Holy Spirit). So by analogy Mary is called the 'Second Eve'.
The Holy Spirit and Mary brought Jesus into the world. Likewise,
the Holy Spirit and Mary bring the 'One body in Christ' into the world - the Church.
If Christ is the new Adam the church should be the new Eve because according to Genesis Adam and Eve were husband and wife and in Revelation, the church is Christ bride not Mary. Sorry if I sound offensive.
@@AidenSmith-ts7rx it is WRITTEN, "... do NOT go beyond what is written"

@@ajarnwuhsih FALSE TEACHING, this is. If you know what's good for you, then learn from the saying:
"DO NOT GO BEYOND WHAT IS WRITTEN"
This came to mind: Hos 2:19 and Hos 2:23 (“I will betroth you to Me forever;
Yes, I will betroth you to Me in righteousness and in justice, In lovingkindness and in compassion,)
(“I will sow her for Myself in the land. I will also have compassion on her who had not obtained compassion,
And I will say to those who were not My people,
‘You are My people!’
And they will say, ‘You are my God!’”)
Thank you for the lesson in Love and compassion from this Wedding at Cana.
Mary is the 𝗪𝗼𝗺𝗮𝗻 in Genesis 3:15! Please get that. I wish you would've explained that to this guy.

I love your explaination sam. All that you interpreted have sense.Praise the Lord.
Wow Thank-you brother for the great teaching God bless
I have no idea what you are going on about with this weird Protestants think Mary was in sin here. You don’t have to be in sin to be rebuked. He didn’t tell her to repent. Nor does Mary need to be sinless for Jesus to honor her request.
It honestly feels like you are trying to read traditions and troubles of men into these verses. Mary knew who her son would be before he was born. It would make sense for her to ask things of him. It also makes sense for Jesus, who was perfect in the law, to honor his mother. As long as it isn’t in direct opposition to the will of his father Jesus would honor this request.
This has nothing to do with Mary being perfect or sinless, but just the mother of Jesus and Jesus being perfect. I don’t get half of what you are talking about here.
You have no idea about half of what he’s saying because of your Protestant background, you aren’t taught the Marion theology of the Apostolic Churches.
@@jbm0745marion theology??

Bring tears to my eyes. I always love Mary and almost visit her statue every times I go to church
This was family it was Mary’s niece and the cousin of Jesus. This was the wedding of Mary and Chepas.
Clopas? I was of the understanding that Clopas was the uncle of Jesus.
Sam you are a gift to us ...
Honor thy father and mother, that's all he did
But what did Jesus had against Mary what did she do to deserve to be rebuked by Him? What would be the reason for anyone even to say that Jesus rebuked her it does not make any sense. I think for Jesus to call Mary woman meant something else. It was to show He has separate Himself from her and now He does not considering her to be His mother any more but His future bride. That is why her role has change from a mother to a bride.
You know that’s not true (if you dared watch the entire video).
Exactly, he’s reaching with trying to say that Mary or any other Saint intercedes or mediated for us from heaven, Mary is blessed among women, and full of grace which is basically giving people what they do not deserve or God giving her what she doesn’t deserve, because even our righteousness is as filthy rags.
@@raydrew201 Even early Christians prayed to Mary (for her intercession with Jesus). They even have 2nd century prayers to Saints/Martyrs written on the interior walls of the Christian Catacombs. (2nd century means the years in the 100’s era, of course). Mary has no power of her own - it’s all by God’s will and Grace. Be like the early Christians. Only a minority of modern ones deny that she intercedes for believers.
@@TrueChristianityWithSandra you are talking about catholic catacombs in Europe, the early “church” started with Judea and spread farther into Africa prior to Europe taking portions of it and mixing it with polytheism, which is the worship of many gods, don’t confuse the bastardization of Christianity by men, with actual scriptural doctrine. Scripture says that the minority will find life eternal and the majority will find destruction. It never took long for just a generation or two to descend into false worship, examples all throughout scripture. You can confess your sins one to another on earth, forgiving one another and praying for one another, but not to the dead.
Imagine you had a wedding and the LORD was a guest and just making a bunch of drinks for everyone. So crazy.
another can openner. Thank you and God bless
Refer Genesis 3:15 where God told the serpent "I will put enmity between you and a Woman, between your seed and her seed.." so here Jesus was referring to a very Woman to whom the LORD Was referring and Jesus is the SEED of that woman (Mary). Remember Mary is not and never older than Jesus. So Jesus was not rebuking her rather He was exalting her reminding people of the promise Made by his Almighty YAHWE TO PURNISH THE Satan
But what did Jesus had against Mary what did she do to deserve to be rebuked by Him? What would be the reason for anyone even to say that Jesus rebuked her it does not make any sense.

According of your logic???
Pharisees came to Jesus and asked for centurion to heal his servant, (they said -“Do this to him, because he loves our people and built synagogue for us). Is IT proof that those Pharisees are holy and we should paint icons on them???
Good stretching the Scriptures
Sam, stop doing it
Yes, this men were holy, they spoke to God and He made a miracle according their belief. Yes, they are painted. No, they werent protestant pastors. Yes, they were orthodox of their time. Yes, the truth is their, as the Lord sain, not from Samarites.
You need to see the Sistine Chappel, see Last Supper both by Michaelangelo. Raphael's Transfiguration, De Vinci's Annunciation and if you don't see the beauty and the hand of God in those artworks then you need to listen to God, not men.
Breaking one of the commandment will not let you go to hell, you're just called the least in heaven. Read about the part where Jesus was asked by the Pharisees which commandment was the greatest... It will be a game changer. Love indeed covers a multitude of sins.
I have heard many different teachings on this and they all had some part of it but they also seemed off. I never felt that I really understood this and was missing something that I was clueless about. THANKS FOR THE VERY SATISFYING EXPLANATION.
I also believed Mary didnt doubt because she must have witnessed some miracles when he was younger thus her faith that he could. And because she knew him she knew he would.
@4:02 I've NEVER heard any so-called protestant say Jesus rebuked Mary by saying woman my hour has not yet come. What many say is that Jesus was moved by her faith. Stop pitching one against the other unnecessarily.

@@1Hope4All “Make No Graven Image”
That is literally what the Catholic church does. Images of Mary and other Saints. Maybe not you but many will kneel before these and even more will pray to them.
If they could speak to you they would tell you not to do that. Why would anyone pray to the servant when the King of Kings has exhorted them to come boldly to the Throne of Grace, into the very presence of the King and voice your prayers directly to Him.
You will find nothing in scripture to support this practice but you will find the Apostles admonishing people for seemingly or tacitly worshipping them. Many do it to Francis and other popes in the past. It’s an abomination.
Mary's request for wine at Cana's wedding was amazingly wonderful. Despite the time had not yet come for Jesus to perform His first miracle, she was honorably favored by God!!!!
Sam, I agree with you every single time you teach as a Biblicist. Like you, i grew up in the Baptist church, but now strive to understand the Bible as the First Century Christians would have. I have noticed you placing much emphasis on what the early church taught but hope you will always weigh doctrine to God’s Holy Word. As a child growing up I was always taught to live Mary; she is the mother or our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. However, if you can please point me to the passage of scripture that instructs me to pray to Mary or in the name of Mary, I would appreciate it. I read in the Bible to pray to the Father through Jesus and that Jesus is the only mediator between us and God the Father. No disrespect to Mary, I just don’t read where we are instructed to pray to her?
Thanks and God bless you Brother!
Love Mary is what i meant to say
I heads Sam say one time, “ you can’t give the early church fathers authority over the scriptures “. And he has done just that
Thanks a lot Sam. From an Indonesian Catholic.
I'm a Protestant and I have never in my 50 years heard this passage preached as a rebuke against Mary or some kind of implication of sin. NEVER EVER. It's always been preached as a great testament to her faith. Now I will remind you, ALL OF YOU that you couldn't even read this passage in a language you can understand without men like Martin Luther.
A mistranslation you mean ? And removing 7 books ?
And almost removing the book of James cause it didn’t line up with HIS doctrine?
He removed the 7 books because HE thought since it wasn’t in the Hebrew bible, it shouldn’t be in the Bible, just cause it was in the Septuagint (the Greek version), which was still read in Jewish synagogues and Jesus and his apostles quoted the Septuagint 2/3 more than the Hebrew.
Also the printing press was made like 70 years prior.
@@VirilitasEtRatio What happened to those who used the printing press to print the Bible in the common language in those days? I'll tell you what, they were BURNED AT THE STAKE!

But what did Jesus had against Mary what did she do to deserve to be rebuked by Him? What would be the reason for anyone even to say that Jesus rebuked her it does not make any sense. I think for Jesus to call Mary woman meant something else. It was to show He has separate Himself from her and now He does not considering her to be His mother any more but His future bride. That is why her role has change from a mother to a bride.
@@jpd4676 how can you make such a big jump from one word when it's well known woman was a respectful way to address someone in that time and no one thinks she was being rebuked never heard one person say that
@@saltking2420 When Jesus called Mary "Woman" it was a way to show gradually he is distancing himself from her that her role has been done. If Jesus wanted to keep having a close relationship with here He would have still called her mother out of respect for what she has done therefore He did not.
Would you ever called your biological mother woman or have you ever called her that way? Well certainly not for the respect you still have for your mother you would still address her as your mother and considered her role has not changed. No one would either unless they have no more respect for their mother.
Think about this. Would you address Mary “Woman" yourself or "Mother” when you pray to her? I bet you won't. Every Catholics call her "My mother" never "My woman" Now ask yourself then why did Jesus Christ called his mother “Woman”? People would say you have more respect to her calling her mother than Jesus and she was not even your biological mother but she was to Jesus.
@@jpd4676 no brother it's not at all woman was like calling her ma'am it's not distancing at all
@@jpd4676 bro a 2 seconds google will show you that's how people talked in that place and time
God bless you brother Shamoun !
I’m a Protestant also, I don’t know what church Sam went to back when he was a Protestant but we were NEVER taught that Jesus rubuked Mary…what?! And what’s with all this “Prots hate Mary” talk? to my Catholics brothers and sisters Sam Shamoun is an AMAZING scholar but he isn’t the 2nd coming of Jesus, he can be wrong and he teaching that “prots hate Mary” isn’t just wrong it really is the devil’s work via his pride…Protestants love Mary she is the mother of God the son of course we think she is special! We just don’t use her and the Saints to intercede prayer only because scripture doesn’t say so, that’s it. I love Sam and I’m thankful he is on the Christian side he really is amazing but guys we even have to question his actions and choices sometimes he is not perfect like Jesus
Stop tap dancing
There is One Holy and Apostolic Church. There are probably more than 40,000 or more Protestant churches that all have different teachings because that is how they are created, someone wants to interpret some scriptures differently so they're off and making another Protestant church. Protestants have protested their own original break away church over 40,000 times.
Over my last 36 years as a practicing Catholic I’ve heard Protestants disparage Mary many many times. Lots of times from preachers right here on TH-cam. It really is a thing.
@@Janet_sky If you don’t stop joking I’m gonna send you to Mecca to kiss the black stone! (Sorry couldn’t resist 😏)
@@splattered63 maaan, there are many different Orthodox Churches that all don’t agree fully with each other..don’t play that game buddy!
Am Protestant from Ethiopia 🇪🇹 and god blessed you your explanation is 🤯 i learn many thing and i known i don't known anything ☺️but some Ethiopia protestant church don't learn this things 🙏
Most likely the main reason why Jesus did do the miracle was to honor His mother, not to venerate her or because she has some power or is sinless or anything like that. Honor your mother and Father, clearly the Father allowed it to be so Jesus would even show He honored His earthly mother, thats it.
Never ever have I heard a protestant think Jesus was telling her off out of anger or rebuking her.
Ya thats wild, Ive never heard a protestant do anything but respect and honor Mary. They just wont worship or pray to or make statues of her.
@@philtanics1082 live a sheltered life?
You're not listening, Sam said that when Jesus made water into wine, the miracle was made by the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. If the triune God also honors Mary, why do protestants downplay Mary?
@philtanics1082 so what about statues. You have pictures of your parents right and grandparents and stuff like that correct who are absolutely nobody but we can't have statues right? You are not logical
@@aliszhinchaenzwe honor mary not worship him
THE BLESSED MYSTERIES OF THE WORD OF GOD,THE HOLY BIBLE. HALLELUJAH TO THE NAME MOST HIGH OUR🔥🕊️🙏 LORD JESUS CHRIST.AMEN
As a protestant, I have no idea what Sam is arguing against. We don't teach that Mary was sinning here. We simply do not venerate her as if she is in heaven now with Christ next to the Father/ having omnipresence as if she were God.
And for the record, I don't hate other churches. that's crazy.
Jesus as the new Adam, Mary as the new eve. God the father did not mean for humans to sin. Jesus and Mary repaired the damage of satan .Gods original plan is back on track.
@@patttrick Jesus is new Adam,and Jesus is the fruit from new Eve Mary 🙏🏽
@@TheBestVibeYT no, Jesus is called "new Adam" in the Bible, while Mary is called "new Eve" in the Bible when st Paul calls Her "Woman" , so and so does Jesus. Why did they not call Her Mary or Mom? Church Fathers call Her that too
@@patttrick Mary isn't the new Eve, that isn't anywhere in the Bible. Mary isn't sinless or God.
In Adam all die, in Christ all live (who are in Christ).
How is this comparable to Mary? there is no comparison to be made.
@@TheBestVibeYTJesus most definitely is the new Adam! He's also the new Moses! There are many more "types" of Jesus in the Old Testament; Abel, Noah’s Ark, Melchizedek, Jacob’s Ladder, Isaac, Passover Lamb, the Manna, the Bronze Snake, the High Priest, the Tabernacle, the Veil, the Mercy Seat, etc. There are more!
If you studied Biblical Typology, you would know this.
thank you Sam Shamoun for sharing🙏
Mary is great, but Yeshua gave me salvation. Don't confuse the grapes too much. Let's remain focused only in Yeshua, who alone intercedes for all.
Yeshua is not alone in the interceding, because you are also called to intercede for others.
He still can't prove anywhere in scripture where we are to pray to Mary or kneel before her statues . This guy is full of pride, the exact opposite of Jesus Christ.
@@knowthywalk8908Huh
The thought is in scripture. You just refuse it.
Do you follow what the Holy Spirit reveals? Also, Can you also point out where in scripture that it contains all Jesus teachings?
@@jeazurlantes Why would you need intercession of Mary? Is our Lord Jesus intercession not enough? Lord never teaches to pray to Mary or ask her for intercession. Holy Spirit in us is Spirit of Christ, Spirit of God, and intercedes for us. Holy Spirit is not spirit of Mary. Do you understand that having Holy Spirit means having Jesus Christ? Think about that, meditate upon that taught, and ask, why would I need intercession of Mary if I have Jesus? At wedding, DESCIPLES did not needed intercession of Mary, because they were with Jesus and Jesus was with them. Think about that. God bless you! Lord Jesus be with you!
He's the Mediator and Intercessor from us to the Father, but we, all the Angels and the Saints especially Mother Mary are called to intercede for each other. Don't confuse the grapes too much.
