CATHOLIC RECITATION + ROSARY PRAYERS • O Queen of Heaven Rejoice - • Queen of Heaven Pray for us. • Wrong! Wrong! Wrong! & UNBIBLICAL. JESUS CONFIRMED & REAFFIRMED • HE IS THE WAY, • HE IS THE TRUTH • HE IS THE LIFE.

GOD THE FATHER GOD THE SON & GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT, HAS COMMISSIONED & EMPOWERED US ALL WITH HIS POWER TO PRAY WITH OUR MOUTHS & NOT THROUGH MEDIUM SUCH AS THE SO CALLED & ACCLAIMED: • ROSARY • SCAPULAR • PRAYERS TO HOLY SAINTS WHO ARE POWERLESS. • PRAYERS TO ANGEL BEINGS TO PROTECT US FROM EVIL ET CETERA. • @ THE MENTION OF THE NAME JESUS, EVERY KNEE SHALL BOW AND CONFESS THAT HE IS GOD. • NOT @ THE MENTION OF NAMES OF HEAVENLY BEINGS. There is no queen of heaven. There has never been a queen of heaven. There is most certainly a King of Heaven, the Lord of hosts, Jehovah. He alone rules in heaven. He does not share His rule or His throne or His authority with anyone. The idea that Mary, the mother of Jesus, is the queen of heaven has no scriptural basis whatsoever, stemming instead from proclamations of priests and popes of the Roman Catholic Church. While Mary was certainly a godly young woman greatly blessed in that she was chosen to bear the Savior of the world, she was not in any way divine, nor was she sinless, nor is she to be worshipped, revered, venerated, or prayed to. All followers of the Lord God refuse worship. • Peter and the apostles refused to be worshipped (Acts 10:25-26; 14:13-14). • The holy angels refuse to be worshipped (Revelation 19:10; 22:9). • The response is always the same, Worship God! • To offer worship, reverence, or veneration to anyone but God is nothing short of idolatry. Mary’s own words in her “Magnificat” (Luke 1:46-55) reveal that she never thought of herself as “immaculate” and deserving of veneration, but was instead relying on the grace of God for salvation: “And my spirit rejoices in God my Savior.” Only sinners need a savior, and Mary recognized that need in herself. Furthermore, Jesus Himself issued a mild rebuke to a woman who cried out to Him, Blessed is the mother who gave you birth and nursed you (Luke 11:27), replying to her, Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it. By doing so, He curtailed any tendency to elevate Mary as an object of worship. He could certainly have said, “Yes, blessed be the Queen of Heaven!” But He did not. He was affirming the same truth that the Bible affirms—there is no QUEEN OF HEAVEN, and the only biblical references to the “queen of heaven” refer to the goddess of an idolatrous, false religion.
