The Lord Jesus as King of Kings honors His Blessed Virgin Mother as Queen. Assumption painting at Lancaster Cathedral.
Fr. Abe, CRS said...
[Why claim her as queen?]
BECAUSE HER SON IS KING. JESUS IS THE KING OF ISRAEL:
Luke 1:30 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.
Luke 1:31 And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.
Luke 1:32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:
Luke 1:33 And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.
SO, MARY FOUND FAVOR WITH GOD BUT NOT WITH YOU AND YOUR HERETICAL RELIGION. GOD GAVE HER GRACES BUT SHE IS NOT ACCEPTABLE FOR YOU AND YOUR KIND. WELL, THE CATHOLICS LOVES THE ONE WHOM GOD FAVORS AND THEREFORE HE CONDEMN THE MARIAN REJECTION WHICH YOU ARE PROMOTING CONTRARY TO THE FAVOR OF GOD.
WHAT KIND OF FAVOR DID GOD GIVE TO MARY? SHE BECAME THE MOTHER OF THE ETERNAL KING OF ISRAEL. HE, HE, HE AND OF COURSE THE MOTHER OF THE KING IS A QUEEN-MOTHER. THAT SINGULAR HONOR IS GIVEN BY GOD. MARY IS THE MOTHER OF THE ETERNAL KING.

Hi Fr.Abe,
ReplyDeleteKawawa naman ang mga born again nag-iilusyon na Biblical sila.hehehe Di nga nila mapapatunayan ang Sola Scriptura sa Bibliya eh.hehehe At saan ba na ka sulat sa Bibliya na dapat lahat mababasa sa Bibliya? hehehe Born Agains(t) I suggest you read your Bible kayo ata ang hindi nagbabasa ng Bibliya hindi mga Katoliko.hehe
Jn.3:5 Amen, Amen I say to you unless you are born again of WATER and SPIRIT. . .
Eh yung mga BORN AGAIN jan tinuturo na by accepting Christ as a Lord and Personal Savior. Ayon sa Bibliya Born Again of WATER and SPIRIT eh sa BORN AGAINS(T) asan ang WATER at SPIRIT? hehehe
Father Abe maraming salamat sa magaganda ninyong
ReplyDeletepaliwanag sa ating catholic faith. Nagagamit ko po ito sa pagpapaliwanag ng ating faith dito po sa canada sa mga relative ko na humiwalay sa catholic.
Hihingi po sana ako ng advise kung saan ako makakakita ng resources sa net tungkol sa original writings ng 4 gospels.
gusto ko po pag aralan at matutunan kung ano ang original writings ng 4 books of gospel kasi po pinapaliwanag ko po sa mother ko yung verse kung saan sinabi ni Jesus na John10:30 "the father and I are one"
sabi nya yan daw ang patunay na ang Diyos Ama at Diyos Anak ay iisa lamang. So iisa lang ang Diyos, so parang sinasabi nya na walang persona.
sabi ko tama ka na iisa ang Diyos pero may tatlong persona.
At isa pa, ang meaning ng "iisa" dyan ay "substance" one divine nature pero two distinct persons.
Gusto ko po patunayan sa kanya na ang "iisa" using the original writing ng John para makita nya na ang "iisa" ay tumutukoy sa substance ayon sa original na writng nito.
Salamat ng marami father.

You hit the nail on the head Bro. Don. He, he, he...
ReplyDeleteDear Bro. Clint,
ReplyDeleteIf you are referring to the oldest text of the Bible in existence it is in Vatican Apostolic Library and Museum. It is called CODEX VATICANUS.
If you want to see the Bible in English and original Greek text you can find it in www.biblos.com
Father Abe, meron po bang mga early church fathers bago nag-council of Nicea na nagturo o kumikilala na si Mary ay Queen?
ReplyDeleteSalamat po Fr.Abe
ReplyDeleteBro.Clint
Hindi na kailangan pa ng turo ng Fathers of the Church para sa Queenship ni Mary dahil si Apostol San Juan at ang Banal na Biblia ang nagturo na ANG INA NG HARI NG LAHAT NG BANSA AY REINA:
ReplyDeleteRev 12:1 At ang isang dakilang tanda ay nakita sa langit: isang babae na nararamtan ng araw, at ang buwan ay nasa ilalim ng kaniyang mga paa, at sa kaniyang ulo ay may isang putong na labingdalawang bituin;
Rev 12:5 At siya'y nanganak ng isang anak na lalake, na maghahari na may panghampas na bakal sa lahat ng mga bansa: at ang kaniyang anak ay inagaw na dinala hanggang sa Dios, at hanggang sa kaniyang luklukan.
SI JESU-CRISTO ANG HARI NG MGA HARI AT ANG BABAENG NAGDALANTAO AT NAGSILANG SA KANYA AY PINUTUNGAN NG CORONANG LABINDALAWANG BITUIN AT ITINANGHAL SA KALANGITAN.
Welcome Bro. Clint.
ReplyDeleteFr.Abe about po sa book of revelation
ReplyDeletesinasabi din po ng mga relative ko dito
na ang vatican city ay nasa book of revelation.
Totoo po ba ito? Ano po ba ang tamang interpretasyon ng book of revelation?
Bro.Clint
Dear Bro. Clint,
ReplyDeleteBasahin man nila ang Biblia ng paulit ulit at pabaligtad wala silang makikitang Vatican City duon.
Ang common accusation from Anti-Catholic ay yun daw WHORE OF BABYLON ay ROME [cf. Revelation 17:
Rev 17:5 "And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH."
Pano daw makikilala kung anong lugar ang tinutukoy na Whore of Babylon? Ito daw:
Rev 17:9 "And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth."
ANG BABAE DAW AY NAKAUPO SA ISANG CITY WITH 7 HILLS. Anong City ang may 7 Hills? Sabi nila ay ang ROMA daw dahil sikat sa kasaysayan ang Rome as The City with 7 Hills. These are the 7 Hills of Rome:
1. PALATINE HILL
2. AVENTINE HILL
3. CAPITOLINE HILL
4. QUIRINAL HILL
5. VIMINAL HILL
6. ESQUILINE HILL
7. CAELIAN HILL
Then they will say: Ayan, ang center of the Catholic Church is in Rome, therefore, the Whore of Babylon is the Roman Catholic Church. He, he, he... That is the common line of attack.
WHAT IS OUR CATHOLIC RESPONSE:
1. The Whore of Babylon refers to the Pagan Rome and its Evil Emperors who persecuted the Christians by feeding them to the Lions, Beheading and Crucifying them on the streets and even burning them alive.
In fact, CHECK THE 7 HILLS OF ROME. NONE OF THEM IS VATICAN HILL!
THE CENTER OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH IS NOT IN ANCIENT ROME WHICH WAS THE SEAT OF EMPEROR NERO, CALIGULA, ETC. BUT THE VATICAN HILL THE PLACE OF MARTYRDOM AND BURIAL OF ST. PETER THE APOSTLE. THAT PLACE IS BEYOND THE TIBER RIVER AND NOT PART OF THE SEVEN HILLS OF ROME.
2. The Church that defeated Roman Paganism and stopped the Persecutions of Christians is THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH. She did that by the grace of God when Emperor Constantine became Christian. His mother was Catholic, The Empress Helena, a very holy and pious woman. In fact, she is a CAtholic Saint.
It says that the Whore of Babylon shall be destroyed. Indeed, the Pagan Rome was destroyed... defeated by CATHOLICS. Now the Roman Coliseum where the Christians were being fed to the lions is now owned by the CATHOLIC CHURCH.
3. Rome is not the only City known as The City of Seven Hills. There is another. Actually there are many others. Including JERUSALEM:
Here are the 7 Hills of Jerusalem
1) The northern summit (hill) is called Scopus [Hill One],
2) The middle summit (hill) was called Nob [Hill Two],
3) The highest point of Olivet itself, and the southern summit (hill) was called in the Holy Scriptures the "Mount of Corruption" or "Mount of Offence" [Hill Three] (II Kings 23:13).
4)On the middle ridge between the Kedron and the Tyropoeon Valleys there was (formerly) in the south "Mount Zion" [Hill Four] (the original "Mount Zion" and not the later southwest hill that was later called by that name),
5) The "Ophel Mount" [Hill Five],
6) To the north of that the "Rock" around which "Fort Antonia" was built [Hill Six],
7) And finally, there was the southwest hill itself [Hill Seven] that finally became known in the time of Simon the Hasmonean as the new "Mount Zion."
The false Christ will come to Jerusalem (the "City of Seven Hills") in order to rule the world, NOT to Rome in Italy!
cf. http://www.askelm.com/prophecy/p000201.htm
This corresponds to the earlier statement of St. John that the place of persecution of the Church and murderers of saints is "the place where the Lord was crucified":
Rev 11:8 "And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified."
What City is that? JERUSALEM NOT ROME.
