Why Mary ? (8/9) (birth Of Mary)

We all remember that Mother Mary was born on the 8^th of September. Would they be Christianity without Mary?

 WHO IS JESUS?

1) Timothy 2:5 says "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus”.

2) John 14:6 says "I AM THE WAY & THE TRUTH & THE LIFE NO ONE COME TO THE FATHER EXCEPT ME".
 All these reminds us that we should follow JESUS’S TEACHINGS & ACTIONS to reach God! WHY? Because Christianity’s basic faith is FATHER,SON&HOLY SPIRIT, ALL 3 ARE IN 1 PERSON(Holy Trinity). There’s no hierarchy in between those 3! as confirmed in Matthew (11:27) "MY FATHER HAS GIVEN ME ALL THINGS. NO ONE KNOWS THE SON EXCEPT THE FATHER, AND NO ONE KNOWS THE FATHER EXCEPT THE SON AND TO WHOM THE SON CHOOSES TO REVEAL HIM"

IS MARY IMPORTANT?
(Actions of jesus)
1st miracle of Jesus(Cana) reminds us the following:
(1)Mary instigated Jesus to come to the Public life
(2)God in His own wisdom, shows us to come through Mary for our HAPPINESS(wine)
(3)To obtain Happiness, the basic teaching of Christ is a primary requirement(love with following God's will)-water.

DID MARY HAVE CHIDREN AFTER JESUS?

At cross,(John 19:26)Jesus handed over Mary to John! And address her as woman(similar in Cana:2-4),implies that.
(1)Mary has been assigned to look after our HAPPINESS(wine) by TRINITY!
(2)Clears meanings of sisters & brothers of Jesus, as indicated in(Matt12:47-50, 13:55-56,)James, Joseph, Simon and Judas) and sisters - NO DIRECT CONNECTIONS! to John, reminds that Jews those days identified cousins,as brothers & sisters.

Hence Mary is mother of MILLIONS of humans SPIRITUALLY!. So Mary bore many children after Jesus, not by flesh but by spirituality!

MOTHER OF THE CHURCH

On 20/10/1964,at 2^nd Vatican Council re-confirmed the Role of Mary in our Church!

THERE IS NO CHRISTIANITY WITHOUT MARY. We don't adore her,we adore only God, the TRINITY!

God, in His own wisdom shows us, the new method of love with Christianity, that is to say:

WHOEVER DESIRES THE FRUIT MUST GO TO TREE. WHOEVER DESIRES JESUS MUST GO TO MARY. WHOEVER FIND MARY WILL MOST CERTAINLY FIND JESUS!

Pope Francis,29/6/2013, in His encyclical, "THE LIGHT OF FAITH" ends as follows(section 60)

LET US TURN IN PRAYER TO MARY,MOTHER OF THE CHURCH AND MOTHER OF OUR FAITH.

Mother,help our faith!
Open our ears to hear God's word and to recognise his voice and call.
Awaken in us, the desire to follow in His footsteps,to go forth from our own land and to receive His promises.
Help us to be touched by His love, that we may touch Him in faith.
Help us to entrust ourselves fully to Him and to believe in His love,especially at times of trial.
Beneath the shadow of the cross,when our faith is called to mature.
Show in our faith the Joy of the risen one.
Remind that those who believe are never alone.
Trust us to see all things,with the eyes of Jesus,that He may be light for our path. And may this light of faith always increase in us,until the dawn of that undying day which Christ Himself, your son our LORD!


GBU!
