where in the Bible can you find anything about parying to mary?

Answer 1

I'll translate the following verses for you:

If you need something, you can certainly bring it to Mary's attention.

If she thinks it's important, she'll bring it to the attention of her divine son, Jesus.

Then, do whatever Jesus tells you.

Works every time!


Joh 2:1 And the third day, there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee: and the mother of Jesus was there.
Joh 2:2 And Jesus also was invited, and his disciples, to the marriage.
Joh 2:3 And the wine failing, the mother of Jesus saith to him: They have no wine.
Joh 2:4 And Jesus saith to her: Woman, what is that to me and to thee? My hour is not yet come.
Joh 2:5 His mother saith to the waiters: Whatsoever he shall say to you, do ye.

Answer 2

You won't find anything in the bible that says anything about praying to Mary. She was not perfect; she was a sinner like everyone else, but the Roman Catholic church prays to her as if she's a 'co-savior' or 'second-in-command' next to Christ and/or God. Truth is, she was an ordinary person like everyone else except for the fact that she was a virgin and blessed by the Holy Spirit to give birth to Christ. Mary herself called Christ her Savior, so if she was so perfect and sinless, why would she need a Savior?? So, to answer your question, there is nothing at all in the bible that says to pray to Mary. You pray to God - NOT Mary or anyone else in the bible but Jesus. Polevault (above my answer) is correct: praying to Mary is a form of idolatry.

Answer 3

Sincere worshippers know that they must address their prayers to the right person. What does the Bible teach in this regard? Should Christians pray to the Virgin Mary?

“Teach Us How to Pray”

The Gospel account of Luke records that one of Jesus’ disciples requested of him: “Lord, teach us how to pray.” In response, Jesus began: “Whenever you pray, say, ‘Father, let your name be sanctified.’” During his Sermon on the Mount, Jesus likewise instructed his followers to pray: “Our Father in the heavens, let your name be sanctified.”—Luke 11:1, 2; Matthew 6:9.

The first thing we learn, then, is that prayer, or worshipful address, should be directed to Jesus’ Father, who is Jehovah. Nowhere does the Bible authorize us to pray to anyone else. This is appropriate since, as Moses was told when he received the Ten Commandments, Jehovah is “a God exacting exclusive devotion.”—Exodus 20:5.

Answer 4

I assume you mean praying??? Nowhere does it say you should pray to anyone but God. Nobody but God can hear it anyway so why bother? The dead know nothing. Eccl 9:5 Mary died and did not go to Heaven as is taught. When you die you go to the grave, not Heaven. Or why would Jesus need to come back for His people?

Answer 5

You can't!...... Not in the real Bible.........Mary was a mortal being just like everyone else. And just like everyone else she is dead in the grave. Only the Roman Catholic Church pray to dead people and have committed many abominations against God.

Answer 6

Nowhere! I've studied the Bible for 35 years. I have an earned Doctorate in Theology. I own a large Bible reference library. I repeat....nowhere.

Answer 7

Nowhere. Praying to Mary is a human-manufactured thing that is written nowhere in scripture. I believe that praying to anyone other than God is just wrong and idolatry.

Answer 8

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

Some pray to the mother of Jesus for her to mediate on their behalf. This verse teaches that Jesus is our ONLY mediator.

Answer 9

James 5:16. Pray means to entreat or implore, "to make a request in a humble manner", or "to address God or a god with adoration, confession, supplication, or thanksgiving". Since the Bible says we should "pray for one another" (James 5:16), we pray (implore) Mary to pray (address God) for us and with us. If you examine the "Hail Mary", you will notice we ask Mary to "pray FOR us".

Answer 10

let us look at what the early church fathers (direct disciples of the apostles) believed shall we:

Ignatius In his Letter to the Smyrnaeans he wrote: "Where the bishop is present, there is the Catholic Church [A.D. 107]

John Henry Newman was one of the more famous converts to Catholicism. After studying the Early Fathers he wrote: "The Christianity of history is not Protestantism

When Jesus then saw His mother, and the disciple whom He loved standing nearby, He said to His mother, "Woman, behold, your son!" John 19:26

Mary became the spiritual mother for all Christians/
