[Comment From A Catholic] Mary always leads us to Jesus and to follow the will of God in our lives. I’m sorry you are confused about Mary. Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. I’m grateful for everyone that leads me closer to Jesus.
[Bible Answer] The Bible teaches it is the Father who draws us to the Lord Jesus (John 6:44), Jesus who draws people to himself (John 12:32) and it is the Holy Spirit who will teach, guide and remind the disciples of everything Jesus said and even glorifies him (John 14:26; John 16:13,14). Mary has NO role in any of those important things, including leading us to Jesus or to follow God’s will. Mary would have to be God-like to accomplish the things you have attributed to her in the lives of millions! That alone should suggest there is something very wrong with Catholicism to exalt a created being that way.
It is vital for Catholics to know the exalted Mary of Catholicism is mythical. She does NOT exist. She cannot help you in any way! She is NOT the real Mary of the Bible, the mother of Jesus. The Bible states absolutely nothing about the real Mary having any kind of role, even microscopic, in the saint’s walk now or helping Christians to get to heaven. The real Mary of the Bible only spoke four times and is the Christian’s sister, not his Mother. She is NOT the sinless, ever-virgin, Queen of Heaven, who is co-reigning with Jesus, as the heaven family gathers around Mary and Jesus. There is no Biblical evidence she is interceding in prayer for us now. Jesus himself (Heb. 7:25) and the Holy Spirit (Rom. 8:26) do that for the Christians. It is vital for you, therefore, to shift your trust and reliance away from the mythical Mary of Catholicism to the only savior of mankind, the LORD JESUS. He is the one we are to call upon for salvation (Rom. 10:13; 1 Cor. 1:2) and at the hour of our death (Acts 7:59,60), not Mary!
Fatima Visions
It is great you know Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life as John 14:6 says, but by acknowledging that you are indirectly opposing Roman Catholicism! How you may ask? Because the Roman Catholic Marian visions at Fatima lethally point us to MARY as the Way (not Jesus)! I’m very acquainted with the Fatima visions because they are what finally caused me to leave Roman Catholicism. Here is an actual quote from those visions, which you can verify if you so desire, about the mythical Mary of Catholicism:
I (Mary) will never leave you. My Immaculate Heart will be your refuge and the way that will lead you to God (Lucia Speaks on The Message of Fatima printed by Ave Maria Institute, p.26).
That is clear undeniable proof that Catholicism teaches Mary is “the way” to God and NOT Jesus! They do it indirectly by endorsing the Fatima visions and their spiritual poison. They also have done this by quoting various Popes who trusted in Mary for eternal life. That single error, if believed, will send all such people to hell. That is NOT being unloving, it is speaking the truth of the Bible in love for Catholic people to be aware of the GREAT spiritual danger they are in through their own religious system. To find the eternal life mentioned by Jesus, you must repent (turn away from your sins) and commit yourself 100% to JESUS. NOTE: I didn’t say Jesus and Mary. Turn from your idols to serve the living God (1 Thess. 1:9). The Bible is final authority. Sacred tradition is NOT reliable and must be rejected. Please, for your own good, align your beliefs and behavior to the message of the New Testament. Remember 1 Cor. 6:9-11 and Luke 11:27,28.
