The Ark of the covenant!

[donadams]

And I thought it was scripture!

Lk 1:42 And she spake out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.

is Luke not in the bible?

 

[donadams]

Mary never has a metaphor attached to her, and the "metaphors" attached to Jesus, such as the root of Jessie, and the vine, the door etc. are more figures of speech describing his position. "Blessed is the fruit of thy womb" is a Catholic rote prayer counted out on beads. Which by the way is something Jesus spoke against concerning prayer.

Mary is not the mercy seat. Nothing in Scripture says any such thing. The Holy Spirit overshadowed Mary and she conceived. He is the Father of the child. Scripture never says the Holy Spirit overshadow(s) her.

thats makes Her the mercy seat!
cos thats what happened
scripture says God's presence is over the mercy seat

the apostolic fathers could see and believe

read ex 25 anything consecrated to God and His service had to be pure holy immaculate and only for His purpose

As a picture/pattern/type of Christ.
Your addition to the word of God is diminishing the Son of God, Christ, both divine and human, and exhalting a mere human (Mary).

paul is applying it back when it was written in psalm 14

In the context of Romans, he's not. He's applying it to all mankind.

Scripture for that?

Not quite. . .see post #25 regarding the Ark of the Testimony.

This is outright heresy.

You are blashpehming the work of Christ and His sinlessness with this statement.

This is not a Biblical teaching but your own opinion.

This is a warning not to post such things as being Biblical.

I agree completely.

"Behold the Ark of the new covenant prepared by God with the power of grace, to receive the eternal word"!

Mary received the eternal word three times

From the angel Mary received the eternal word in Her mind and believed!

Spiritually in Her heart Mary received the eternal word filled with love"!

In her womb by the power of the Spirit Mary received the eternal word in Her sacred womb and hoped for the redemption of the world!

Three things are eternal! 1 cor 13:13
Faith, Hope, & Charity!

"Behold the Ark of the new covenant prepared by God with the power of grace, to receive the eternal word"!

Is that statement from Scripture. . .or from the mind if man?

RCC-style exegesis!

You're slandering the word "exegesis."

Yep. An oxymoron. I should have put, 'exegesis', in scare quotes.

"Whenever the divine favour chooses someone to receive a special grace, or to accept a lofty vocation, God adorns the person chosen with all the gifts of the Spirit needed to fulfil the task at hand."

[donadams]

And "the word" (post #46)?

the commandments are the word of God

You're slandering the word "exegesis."

how do you know?
how do you know what is and what is not scripture? much less the authentic interpretation?
