Re: No mere human being in heaven or on earth can intercede for millions
faith writes:
Jesus upbraids his mother more than once, calls her "woman" even, even appears to chide her for interfering, as when He said "don't you know I must be about My father's business" in the temple, and when she called Him to deal with the wine's running out at Cana and He said "Woman, what do I have to do with you? My time has not yet come." He tells the woman who says "blessed are the paps that suckled you" that it is those who obey God who are blessed, and He tells those who inform Him that His family are outside to see Him, that His true mother and brothers and sisters are those who obey God etc
didn't jesus ever hear the "honour thy mother and thy father" bit?
not a very "christian" attitude
