WHY MOTHER TERESA SHOULD NOT BE A SAINT

[wel_mel_2]

Bismillah:

Seriously man, why would we want to break the 1st Commandment?

Seriously??? you are not only breaking the 1st commandment FHC.


Look at this image…





How could anyone bow down in prayer to a statue of Mary, yet at the same time deny that they are worshipping her? God clearly command you in the second of the ten commandments <b>NOT</b> to make unto yourslef <b>ANY</b> graven images.


<b>"Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:" -Exodus 20:4</b>


It says in plain English and need not for anyone interpretation that you are <b>NOT</b> to make unto yourself <b>ANY</b> likeness of anything that is in heaven!!! and you are saying that Mary is in heaven. you are NOT to make any likeness of her according to Exodus 20:4. So what do you call a statue of mother Mary? It surely is a likeness of her, a graven image! No matter how hard you try to stretch the meaning to suite your desire, it is against the commandment of God.


and here's another commandment was broken.


"Thou shalt <b>not bow down thyself to them</b>..." -Exodus 20:5


But JPII didn’t mind to bow down to a statue.


You can argue whether or not you are worshipping Mary by bowing down to her; but one thing is for certain, <b>God has commanded you in Exodus 20:5 NOT TO BOW DOWN to her. </b> Even if you are not worshipping Mary, you ARE SINNING if you bow down to her because the Bible strictly forbids it!

Catholics beg for Our Lady's intercessions. Like any mother she cares about her children & will do whatever it takes to save them. She has strong connections to her Son

You must understand that God Almighty (even if you call him Father), can never be compared by our real fathers and mothers here on earth. When we ask God for something, even if we were sinners, he listen to our beseeches attentively and need not for any mediator to intercede or explain one’s position, He wisely take the decision alone without anyone else' influence. You are degrading God to a very low level, how can God decide to punish someone for example but then Mary will interfere, <i>“Oh please Lord forgive this man, he begged me and I am the mother of Jesus so please don’t punish him”</i> , and So God will follow her. No FHC, God listen to our prayers and He is the Only One that can take the right decision, he does not need to listen to anyone else's opinion.

We ask the BVM to "pray for us now & at the hour of our death". We ask her to guide, help & teach us to follow her Son. This can only be done through her prayers.
Secure eternal redemption? I think you mean salvation


Dwell in our hearts? The Holy Spirit dwells in our hearts

Again, I don’t understand what you just said.

I certainly hope all Catholics deny the Saints are gods

The do deny that they are not gods, but they do worship them… The don’t say that they worship them, but they certainly do in their actions.
