“ISN’T PRAYING TO MARY AND THE SAINTS BREAKING THE FIRST COMMANDMENT?”

~thread~
1. “QUESTION:

I was wondering about praying to Mary and to the saints. God gave us ten commandments and the first of those is ‘thou shalt not have strange gods before me.’
#TenCommandments #Bible
2. Is praying to Mary and the Saints not breaking that Commandment?

ANSWER:

The first Commandment as you rightly point out is about worshipping God and Him alone: True worship (as opposed to veneration or honour) does indeed belong to God alone,

3. and we should never worship man or any other creature as we worship God.

When we pray to Mary or to the saints, we’re simply asking them to help us, by praying to God on our behalf. We do not worship them. We do not make them God.

1. On the Nativity of StJohnTheBaptist:

~thread, from the CCC~

THE SIXTH COMMANDMENT:

“You shall not commit adultery.”

[see also Mt 5:27-28] #Bible

MEANING:
2. “Love is the fundamental and innate vocation of every human being” (FC 11).

By creating the human being man and woman, God gives personal dignity equally to the one and the other. Each of them, man and woman, should acknowledge and accept his sexual identity.

3. Christ is the model of chastity. Every baptised person is called to lead a chaste life, each according to his particular state of life.

Chastity means the integration of sexuality within the person. It includes an apprenticeship in self-mastery.
