Anyway, the Bible doesn't tell us which books should be in the Bible.
There must have been some authority in how the books were authenticated, and arranged.
The Church in 382 AD the Council of ROME, issued an official declaration of acceptance, a list for the current 73 books of the Bible, 46 OT and 27 NT.
At the Hippo Council of 393 AD, this same list was reaffirmed and decreed as Sacred Scripture. 397 AD, the Council of Carthage reaffirmed the same list of 73 books which became the Holy Bible.
The Church (Catholic) under the guidance of the Holy Spirit arranged the Holy Bible as we have it today, 73 books.
It remained unchanged for 1100 yrs until Luther, a man with no authority, changed the list and began a mass delusion that there are only 66 books in the bible.
Luther had no authority since the Church was one Church and he was one man.
The Church has always had the authority in these matters ever since the letters and gospels were collected and a list was established.
Psalm 51:5, King David says that original sin was passed to him by his mother. Jesus has a human mother and we know he was without sin. Mary had to be a perfect vessel without original sin since the word of God says original sin passes through the mother. Its a mystery. The fact you all dont think she was a Holy vessel and just and "incubator" for Christ amazes me. But answer me this, Where in the bible does it say to have an altar call for salvation? Where is the sinner's prayer in the bible? Where did Jesus ever say in the bible that communion is whenever the preacher feels like it? Where does the bible say that the bible is the only authority? Where in the bible does it say that rock concerts are ok for worship? Where in the bible does it say that church is exclusively on Sun and Wed night? None of these thing are in the bible!!!!!!And I am pretty sure you have no idea what the Catholic Church teaches much less why.Mary was born in sin and Mary was born with the sin of Adam.
Where in the Bible does the Holy Spirit say Mary was born without the sin of Adam? Give me Book, Chapter, and verse that says it.
I know for a fact its not in the Bible and the Roman Catholic Church made this up to keep you in bondage to Mary.
Its interesting that you cannot see the Truth in the Protestant Church and you cannot see the lies in the Roman Catholic Church.
If you look carefully at what the Roman Catholic Church teaches especially the Doctrines about Mary in the last 200 years you will see the lies from Satan that the Roman Catholics have allowed into their Church.
Also where in the Bible did the Holy Spirit ever say Mary was taken up to Heaven? Its not in the Bible and the Holy Spirit never said it.
I know what the Roman Catholic Church teaches. How can the Roman Catholics call themselves True Christians when they refuse to listen to the Holy Spirit?
You mwc68 cannot claim to have the Indwelling of the Holy Spirit and teach that Mary was without the sin of Adam. Clearly the Holy Spirit says all have sinned and none are Righteous.
Therefore you are lying to us by claiming Mary was without the sin of Adam. I do not see the Indwelling of the Holy Spirit in you, all i see is a sinner trying to deceive people into following your lies.

with the same argument in order to make Mary without original sin, her mother must sinless as well
So you doubt the power of God? That's why it's called the Immaculate Conception
God could not come into the presence of evil in the womb! Really? Are you this lame?LOL LOL so you claim that God did not have the power to produce His Son as sinless from Mary's womb by immaculate birth (but conceived by the Holy Spirit), and at the same time want to say that He did have the power to produce Mary as sinless from her sinful mother even though she was conceived by a sinful father? Who is it who REALLY doubts the power of God???

sorry,that's not how i understand it. was Eve made with or without sin?Psalm 51.5 says nothing of the kind. It simply says that he was shapen in iniquity and she conceived him 'in sin'. Perhaps you need lessons in the idea of conception. He was not brought by a stork. Jesse and his wife TOGETHER conceived him. Jesse's seed was implanted in his wife's egg (you can find the details from a book on biology). SO THEY BOTH CONCEIVED HIM. Thus he shared the sinful nature of BOTH parents. It was passed to him in the act of conception. That was why Jesus was 'conceived by the Holy Spirit'. It did not follow the biology textbooks. This was so that sin would not be passed on to Him from the conception.
But Mary was conceived by her father and her mother. Thus their sinful nature was passed on to her. That was why she spoke of 'GOD MY SAVIOUR'.
But Jesus was not conceived by his 'mother'. He was conceived by the Holy Spirit. He was only BORN of the virgin Mary. YOUR OWN CREEDS STATE THAT. Thus He was conceived without a sinful nature. Mary did NOT have to be a perfect vessel. She only carried in her womb a baby which had been 'conceived by the Holy Spirit'. That would not render Him sinful.
It certainly is a mystery as to how Jesus Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit could be seen as needing a perfect 'womb bearer', but Mary who was conceived by two sinful parents did not. In that case she had three sources of sin, her father, her mother and her mother's womb.
The source of Jesus was the Holy Spirit Who was without sin. Being borne in Mary's womb did not make Him sinful. The sources of Mary were a sinful man, and a sinful woman. Clearly then she inherited their sin. You greatly err, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God.
Perhaps with my explanation you now understand?
sorry,that's not how i understand it. was Eve made with or without sin?
You continue dismissing Mary and her role which continues. How do you explain the messages of Fatima or the various visitations tbroughuot history?Eve was not in fact conceived. So what has that to say to anything? She was fashioned by the Holy Spirit out of Adam's side. And Adam was sinless. There is no comparison between the conception of Mary from two sinful parents, and the creating of Eve from the side of a sinless man.
You continue dismissing Mary and her role which continues. How do you explain the messages of Fatima or the various visitations tbroughuot history?
Fatima? Hallucinations? 70,000 had a hallucination or were depressed? These were faithful and secularI do not dismiss Mary's role as the womb bearer of the Messiah. What I dismiss are the fantasies and fairy tales that the Roman Catholic church has sought to build on it.
Easy. Hallucination, clinically depressed women who see 'visions', and people seeing what they want to see, combined in some cases with trickery on behalf of your church.
Perhaps I should explain that I am highly knowledgeable about clinical depression which was a common illness through the centuries.
How do you explain similar visions among Buddhists and Hindus?
So you doubt the power of God? That's why it's called the Immaculate Conception
What casket are you referring to? You continue to prove you no nothing of Catholicism except propaganda, Oh and nice job dodging the issue

Wow ok, whatever, i believe differentLOL you do swallow all you are told unless its in the Scriptures. History as written by the Roman Catholic church. I wonder how many REALLY went? But who do you think flock to these supposed signs? The clinically depressed and hallucinating women. And they see what they want to see. Of course it may be that Satan's trickery is in it too, as well of course as the church's.
How do you explain similar visions among Buddhists and Hindus? You didn't answer that.
ok, you seem unstable and have digressed to name calling and claiming you can see into my heart. I'm sorry the protestants have filled you with hatred for fellow Christians! I know that is not in the bibleIf sin was passed on by the mother and Mary needed to be sinless to keep Jesus sinless then by your very own argument mwc68 Marys mother HAD to be sinless to keep Mary sinless.
What you really are teaching mwc68 is that God is powerless and Mary is more powerful than God.
If God WAS able to keep Mary sinless in the womb of her mother who was a sinner then God DID have the power to keep Jesus sinless while in the womb of Mary who was a sinner.
Do you see what you are teaching mwc68? I think you do. You are teaching this because you want your god Mary to be GREATER than God!
I have news for you mwc68. Because of what you are teaching you are a False Prophet who will never enter into Heaven.
This is why i left the Evil Corrupted Cult Roman Catholic Church!
All those who are in the Roman Catholic Church who teach that Mary was sinless will never enter into Heaven. The Lake of Fire is reserved for those Roman Catholics.
I feel sorry for you mwc68, Satan has deceived you to the point i do not think you will ever accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. Its Mary that you want to Worship. Its Mary that you want to be your Savior. Its Mary that you want to be your God!
