A. Trust in GOD's mercy

"But I have trusted in thy mercy;"

Jude 1:21 (Amplified Bible)

Guard and keep yourselves in the love of God; expect and patiently wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah)—[which will bring you] unto life eternal.

Isaiah 12:2 (Amplified Bible)

Behold, God, my salvation! I will trust and not be afraid, for the Lord God is my strength and song; yes, He has become my salvation.

Psalms 147:11 (Amplified Bible)

The Lord takes pleasure in those who reverently and worshipfully fear Him, in those who hope in His mercy and loving-kindness.

Psalms 145:20 (Amplified Bible)

The Lord preserves all those who love Him, but all the wicked will He destroy.

It has already dawned on me, I was a former die-hard, super-religious roman catholic before since birth, all of us are like this. We have not been given a the freedom of choice in our birth and we are already an inborn roman catholic and this major religion has brought many people "cursed" into hell. The promoted the human mother to goddess and degraded JESUS as an angry god that needs to be disciplined by the mother, so the way is Mary not JESUS, the way to JESUS is through Mary.

This is not true. First of all, Mary is fully human and to trust in human puts a curse on you already. My proof that Mary is only human is this verse:

Luke 1:46 (Amplified Bible)

And Mary said, My soul magnifies and extols the Lord,

Even Mary rejoiced in GOD her Savior. Mary is a doer of our text: Psalms 13:5 she never said she rejoiced over herself for she's a goddess if that's the case. And trusting her since she's human puts a curse on you.

Jeremiah 17:5 (Amplified Bible)

Thus says the Lord: Cursed [with great evil] is the strong man who trusts in and relies on frail man, making weak [human] flesh his arm, and whose mind and heart turn aside from the Lord.

While GOD, the FATHER called GOD, the SON, LORD.

Matthew 22:44-46 (Amplified Bible)

The Lord said to My Lord, Sit at My right hand until I put Your enemies under Your feet?

If then David thus calls Him Lord, how is He his Son?

And no one was able to answer Him a word, nor from that day did anyone venture or dare to question Him.

Psalms 110:1 (Amplified Bible)

A Psalm of David. THE LORD (God) says to my Lord (the Messiah), Sit at My right hand, until I make Your adversaries Your footstool.

This is the question that the religious leaders, priests and scribes cannot answer from the LORD, that if JESUS is the Son of David, why is He called LORD by David? It's because JESUS is both GOD and LORD, and became human that came from the lineage of David, that's the answer. If you think JESUS is not GOD that became man, you can't answer this question, if you think the mother of JESUS is goddess, you can't also answer this question. There's a spiritual blindness in your eyes. You are blinded by religion.

According to Mary, she's only a servant, and she's taking instructions from an angel. Her obedience to be used as GOD's vessel, brought her blessings. The vessel can't be as great as the potter or owner.
