@juctomania @Curi_Christian I have the framework that anything that is binding on me has a set of reasons that lead to that conclusion. That is what I'm asking for.

@juctomania @Curi_Christian What did the church use to come to these dogmatic decisions? How do I test the church since Paul said test everything.

@juctomania @Curi_Christian So then the Marian dogmas are wrong because its not part of the Gospel and therefore aren’t required to be saved and the Catholic Church is wrong because it says you have to believe the dogmas to be part of the church and there is no salvation outside the Catholic Church.

@juctomania @Curi_Christian Then how is it a curse if it is favorable?

@juctomania @Curi_Christian So this typology is just going to be special pleading the entire time?

@juctomania @Curi_Christian So then it doesn't follow that Mary is Eve or that she is the ark. Scripture also never once calls her either of these things. Do you think Paul just totally missed the importance of Mary?

@juctomania @Curi_Christian She had found favor prior to the angel saying it. Probably when God said "hey go tell Mary I favor her." That is prior to the angel saying it.

@juctomania @Curi_Christian Seems irrelevant. My cells are all over my house but when I leave my house people don't think I'm still there.

You'd think Slim, of all people, would know the importance of responding to the people who write him letters.

@juctomania @Curi_Christian If Mary is the new ark then when Jesus was born the ark was empty of the presence of God and therefore no longer the ark, right?

@juctomania @Curi_Christian Does God say “I will put enmity between you and only saved women”? If you follow the logic of Eve only being named after the fall then Mary shouldn’t have had a name until after the angel showed up. Or at least should have received a new name like Sarah.

Mary was not “graced”. She found favor in the eyes of the Lord (Luke 1:30) just like it says Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord (Gen 6:8). This is not a new phenomena so that even if you what to translate it as “grace” it is the same thing that happened to Noah. I can not see where Noah is free from sin in order to build the ark so Mary doesn’t have to be free from sin to house Jesus.

@juctomania @Curi_Christian Let's stick with the first point. Is it ONLY Mary who has enmity with the serpent and no other woman after Eve?

@juctomania @Curi_Christian Ok. How is this supposed to derive any of the Marian dogmas even if I grant that Mary is who I'm supposed to be thinking about?

@juctomania @Curi_Christian God isn't saying there was enmity before the fall he is saying there shall be enmity now after the fall.

@JamesEwen0407 @chris_blodgett Man doesn't have a sin nature. By nature the Gentiles keep the law even without having it.

@juctomania @Curi_Christian It would seem that if the seed of the serpent is not literally from Satan then we don't need to think only of Mary since it isn't a literal category.
