The ‘Queen Of Heaven’ Worshiped By The Catholic Church Comes From Pagan Babylon And Is Not The Biblical Mary

If anyone would have asked me who the “Queen of Heaven” was, I could answer them immediately and accurately. The “Queen of Heaven” was the same Virgin Mary that I had been taught to to pray to and to seek salvation from all my life.

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

The Roman Catholic traditions of the “Madonna and Child” began back in pagan Babylon with the stories of Nimrod, Semiramis and the baby Tammuz.

Until the age of 30, I was your typical product of the Roman Catholic system. I had been sprinkled as a baby, received “first holy communion”, confessed my sins to a ‘priest’, and completed the Catholic sacrament of “Confirmation” all by the time I was in 5th grade. If anyone would have asked me who the “Queen of Heaven” was, I could answer them immediately and accurately. The “Queen of Heaven” was the same Virgin Mary that I had been taught to to pray to and to seek salvation from all my life. What I did not know, however, was that God in the Bible says that the “queen of heaven” is a pagan abomination that provokes Him to anger.

“The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead their dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto other gods, that they may provoke me to anger.” Jeremiah 7:18 (KJV)

In order to attempt to staunch the flow of criticism Catholics receive about idol worship of mere humans like the biblical Mary, we were trained to tell people that “no, we do not worship Mary, we simply venerate her out of respect”. But for those of us on the “inside”, we knew different. We were taught to pray to Mary more than to anyone else, with prayers like this one:

“O Mother of Perpetual Help, grant me ever to be able to call upon thy powerful name, since thy name is the help of the living and the salvation of the dying. Ah, Mary most pure, Mary most sweet, grant that thy name from this day forth may be to me the very breath of life. Dear Lady, delay not to come to my assistance whenever I call upon thee; for in all the temptations that assail me, in all the necessities that befall me, I will never leave off calling upon thee, ever repeating: Mary, Mary. What comfort, what sweetness, what confidence, what tenderness fills my soul at the sound of thy name, at the very thought of thee! I give thanks to our Lord, who for my sake hath given thee a name so sweet, so lovable, so mighty. But I am not content merely to speak thy name; I would utter it for very love of thee; it is my desire that love should ever remind me to name thee, Mother of Perpetual Help.” source

If you think that saying something like that is not worship or prayer, you are highly deceived. That was just one of dozens of Vatican-approved prayers to Mary. Catholic schools and churches love to place statues of the Virgin Mary and the Baby Jesus in the classrooms and chapels. Everywhere you go, there the Madonna and Child appear before you like an apparition. But as I got older, I discovered statues like that did not have the beginnings with Mary and Jesus, not even close. The Roman Catholic traditions of the “Madonna and Child” began back in pagan Babylon with the stories of Nimrod, Semiramis and the baby Tammuz.

In his excellent book, Babylon Mystery Religion, author Ralph Woodrow shows us where the Roman Catholic “Mother and Child” worship came from.

Nimrod, the mighty hunter before (against) the Lord, was the first to organize cities into a kingdom under human rule, Genesis 10:8-10.  This much we know from the Bible.  The name Nimrod comes from the word, marad, meaning “he rebelled.”  Legend has it that Nimrod married his own mother, Semiramis.  After Nimrod died, Semi­ramis claimed Nimrod was the sun-god.  She later had a child, Tammuz, whom she claimed was Nimrod reborn, supernaturally conceived, the promised seed, the “savior.”  Semiramis developed a religion of mother and child worship.  Symbols were used to develop a “mystery” religion.  Since Nimrod was believed to be the sun-god (Baal), fire was considered his earthly representation.  In other forms, Nimrod was symbolized by sun images, fish, trees, pillars, and animals.  Tammuz, son of the sun-god, was represented by the golden calf.  And so it was, that mankind followed this religion of worshipping the creation (creature) rather than the Creator, Romans 1:21-26.

Mary is crying before Jesus Christ because Catholics keep Worshiping her:

Rome, the greatest and longest-lived human world-ruling empire, assimilated religions from her many conquered territories.  All these religions had commonalities, for they all came from Babylon.  These practices infiltrated and overcame the professing Christian Church, which later came to be dominated by Rome itself. Many pagan religions had mother and child worship, whether Devaki and Krishna (India), Isis and Horus (Egypt), Venus or Fortuna and Jupiter (Rome), etc.  Each nation gave different names to essentially the same god or goddess.

A mother goddess, or “queen of heaven,” was said to have given miraculous birth to a son.  Ancient Israel sometimes followed this false religion, Judges 2:13, 10:6; I Samuel 7:3-4, 12:10; I Kings 11:5; II Kings 23:13; Jeremiah 44:17-19, with disastrous results.  In Ephesus, Semiramis was worshipped as the great mother Diana, the many-breasted goddess.  This form of mother-child worship was followed throughout all Asia and the world, Acts 19:27.

Pope Francis Entrusts the World to the “Immaculate Heart of Mary”:

Mary worship had no place in the early Christian Church.  Even the Catholic Encyclo­pedia (article, “Virgin Mary,” pp. 459-460) admits that in the first centuries, A.D., there are no traces of the worship of Mary.  By the fourth century, the time of Emperor Con­stan­tine, wor­ship­ping Mary as a goddess and offering cakes at her shrine, began to come into the professing Church.  In A.D. 431, the Council of Ephesus made Mary worship official.  By mixing beliefs already being practiced (Diana of Ephesus worshipped as a goddess) with nominal Christianity, so-called Church “fathers” reasoned that they could gain more converts.  It is the same old story.  Apostates believe that lowering God’s standards results in a better form of religion, more acceptable and popular to the masses.

The Bible is clear that there is only one mediator between God and man, the man Christ Jesus, I Timothy 2:5.  Yet Roman Catholicism teaches that Mary is also a “mediator.”  Catholics offer prayers to Mary, burn candles to Mary, and have statues of Mary, which came directly from their pagan counterparts.  Isis, the Egyptian goddess, was known as “mother of God,” just as Mary is titled by Catholics.  Weigall, in The Paganism in Our Christianity, page 129, says, “When Christianity triumphed, these paintings and figures became those of the madonna and child, without any break in continuity: no archaeologist, in fact, can now tell whether some of these objects represent the one or the other.”

WHY ARE CATHOLICS UNABLE TO ADMIT THAT, YES, THEY DO PRAY TO MARY?

Part of our Catholic training was learning how to pray to the Virgin Mary. Statues of Mary were everywhere you looked, we were taught about the many apparitions of Mary around the world, celebrated Mary on May Day, and gave her the top spot in our thoughts and devotions. St. Mary’s school and Roman Catholic Church taught us these things by order of the Vatican.

In pagan religion, the mother was worshipped as much (or more) than her son!  Noted Roman Catholic writer Alphonsus Liguori stressed that prayers addressed to Mary are much more effectual than to Christ.  Mary is deified as the “queen of heaven,” born without sin (Immaculate Conception), the “mother of God,” exactly as pagan worshippers deified Isis, Venus, Ashtoreth, etc.  Jesus did not teach that Mary was superior to other human beings.  When someone mentioned His mother and brethren, Jesus asked, “Who is My mother? and who are My brethren?”  Then, stretching forth His hand toward His disciples, He said, “Behold My mother and My brethren!  For WHOSOEVER shall do the will of My Father which is in heaven, the same is My brother, and sister, and MOTHER,” Matthew 12:46-50.  Anyone who does the will of God is on the same level as Mary.

Closely associated with praying to Mary is the rosary, a chain of fifteen sets of small beads, marked off by one large bead.  The ends of the chain are joined by a medal with an imprint of Mary, from which hangs a short chain with a crucifix at the end.  The use of prayer-counters or rosary beads is an almost universal custom in pagan religion.  From Nineveh to India to China, beads were used as a part of worship.  The Phoenicians used a circle of beads resembling a rosary in the worship of Astarte, the mother goddess, as early as 800 B.C.  Francis Xavier was astonished to see that rosaries were universally familiar to the Buddhists of Japan.

The main prayer of the rosary is the “Hail Mary.”  The complete rosary repeats the Hail Mary 53 times, the Lord’s Prayer 6 times, and several other recitations.  The Hail Mary combines the statement of the angel about Mary from the Bible with unscriptural blasphemy, “Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee; Blessed art thou among women Jesus [a loose translation of Luke 1:28], and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.  Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of death, Amen.”  Mary was not the mother of God, she was not holy, she was a righteous woman who is dead in her grave, waiting for the resurrection to eternal life, with all the other dead in Christ.

The Catholic Encyclopedia says, “There is little or no trace of the Hail Mary as an accepted devotional formula before about 1050,” article “Hail Mary,” p. 111.  Jesus instructs us not to use vain repetitions when we pray, Matthew 6:7-8.  The so-called “Lord’s Prayer” verses 9-13, was a model prayer, not a prayer to be monotonously repeated.  Jesus said in effect “pray thus” (after this manner therefore pray ye), not “pray this.”  Prayer should be spontaneous, not rote memory with no heart-felt meaning.

Now you know where the idea of Mary worship comes from, because it certainly is not in the Bible.

There is not one verse of scripture in the entire Bible that would give any weight at all to praying to Mary, worshipping Mary, or placing Mary in any position of prominence at all. The book of Acts shows that Mary is in the Upper Room on the day of Pentecost, but merely as a silent witness. No one asks her anything, and she offers no comments of any kind. Rather strange, don’t you think, considering the exalted position afforded her by the Catholic church?

“And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.” Revelation 18:4 (KJV)

The Roman Catholic Church is the prophesied Whore of Babylon found in chapters 17 and 18 in the book of Revelation. It is a system that God hates, and will one day destroy during the time of Jacob’s trouble. The Lord saved me back in 1990, and pulled me out of this false system. He will do the same for you if you desire to know the truth.

“And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 8:32 (KJV)

THE BIBLE BELIEVERS SUNDAY SERVICE: Israel, Iran and Waiting On the Lord In The Last Days

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

As Bible believers, we are commanded to serve the Lord Jesus Christ as we wait for His return regardless of global events happening around us in Israel and Iran

We are currently watching the incredible events unfolding in the Middle East, and they all point to the fulfillment of Bible prophecy. But the larger and often overlooked picture is the instruction to wait upon the timing of the Lord, something not really talked about here in the closing moments of the Church Age.  On this Sunday Service, we take a look at the biblical commandment, given to believers in every dispensation, to wait upon the Lord for the fulfillment of His holy word.

“So that ye were ensamples to all that believe in Macedonia and Achaia. For from you sounded out the word of the Lord not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith to God-ward is spread abroad; so that we need not to speak any thing. For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God; And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.” 1 Thessalonians 1:7-10 (KJB)

SUNDAY SERVICE STUDY NOTES: Israel, Iran and Waiting On the Lord In The Last Days

Israel, Iran and Waiting On the Lord In The Last Days

All through the Bible, in both Testaments, believers in every dispensation are instructed to wait upon the Lord’s timing. The Lord does not do things randomly or haphazardly, but has everything orchestrated down to the last second. We are currently watching the incredible events unfolding in the Middle East, and they all point to the fulfillment of Bible prophecy. But the larger and often overlooked picture is the instruction to wait upon the timing of the Lord. Here we have the commandment, given to believers in all dispensations, to wait upon the Lord.

DAVID:

“When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up. Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies. Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty. I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.” Psalm 27:10-14 (KJB)

HABAKKUK:

“I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved. And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.” Habakkuk 2:1-3 (KJB)

DANIEL:

“And I heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that it shall be for a time, times, and an half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished. And I heard, but I understood not: then said I, O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things? And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end. Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.” Daniel 12:7-10 (KJB)

THE APOSTLES:

“And it came to pass, that, when Jesus was returned, the people gladly received him: for they were all waiting for him.” Luke 8:40 (KJB)

“Sell that ye have, and give alms; provide yourselves bags which wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, neither moth corrupteth. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. Let your loins be girded about, and your lights burning; And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately. Blessed are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them. And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find them so, blessed are those servants. And this know, that if the goodman of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house to be broken through.” Luke 12:33-39 (KJB)

“And as they heard these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God should immediately appear. He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return. And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come. But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this man to reign over us. And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading.” Luke 19:11-15 (KJB)

“And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me. For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence. When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel? And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.” Acts 1:4-7 (KJB)

THE CHURCH:

“For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body. For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.” Romans 8:22-25 (KJB)

“So that ye were ensamples to all that believe in Macedonia and Achaia. For from you sounded out the word of the Lord not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith to God-ward is spread abroad; so that we need not to speak any thing. For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God; And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.” 1 Thessalonians 1:7-10 (KJB)

“Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have free course, and be glorified, even as it is with you: And that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men: for all men have not faith. But the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you, and keep you from evil. And we have confidence in the Lord touching you, that ye both do and will do the things which we command you. And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ.” 2 Thessalonians 3:1-5 (KJB)

The United States And Israel Launch Major Joint Combat Operation On Iran As Tehran Strikes Back With Missile Attacks On US Bases In Middle East

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

U.S. and Israel forces launched a broad, coordinated military offensive against Iran early this morning, targeting Iranian military infrastructure, missile sites, and leadership compounds

On our Podcast yesterday, we told you that war with Iran would come within 24 hours and that’s exactly what we are watching here in the early morning hours on this Saturday. The goal of this attack is to remove the current leadership of the Ayatollah and restore Iran to their pre-1978 Persian heritage. Iran becoming Persia again? That put’s us squarely back on the end times timeline and Middle East Bible prophecy as we draw closer and closer to the final countdown. Trump said on Truth Social this morning “We are going to destroy their missiles and raze their missile industry to the ground. It will be totally… obliterated. We are going to annihilate their navy,” Let’s see what actually happens.

“The ram which thou sawest having two horns are the kings of Media and Persia.” Daniel 8:20 (KJB)

Israel has named this campaign ‘Operation Lion’s Roar’ which from a prophetic perspective is quite tantalizing. You see, Israel may be far removed from a right relationship with the Lord, and they are, and the Jews may be strangers to the Book, and they are, but you are never going to get away from the Lord’s hand on them in the end times. They will soon come face to face with the actual Lion from the tribe of Judah in the upcoming time of Jacob’s trouble, and in that day they will mourn and wail. In the meantime, pray for the peace of Jerusalem and the salvation of the Jewish people, that many might turn to Jesus of Nazareth in these closing moments of the Church Age.

Trump announces ‘major combat operations’ in Iran

FROM THE AP: The U.S. and Israel launched a major attack on targets across Iran on Saturday. U.S. President Donald Trump urged Iranians to take cover during the strikes, but then: “When we are finished, take over your government. It will be yours to take.” It was an extraordinary appeal that suggested the allies could be seeking to end of the country’s theocracy after decades of tensions.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu echoed that sweeping goal. “Our joint operation will create the conditions for the brave Iranian people to take their fate into their own hands,” Netanyahu said.

In a video posted on social media, Trump claimed Iran has continued to develop its nuclear program and plans to develop missiles to reach the U.S.

The first strikes of the attack appeared to target the compound home to Iran’s 86-year-old Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in downtown Tehran. It wasn’t immediately clear if he was there at the time. Smoke could be seen rising from the Iranian capital.

The attack quickly expanded beyond Iran. Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard said it responded by launching a “first wave” of drones and missiles targeting Israel, where a nationwide warning was issued as the military said it bring down Iranian fire. READ MORE

When people write in and say how much they would like gospel tracts but cannot afford them, we send them a box at no cost to them for either the tracts or the shipping, no matter where they are in the world. We have a Gospel Billboard program. We are now broadcasting Bible studies, Podcasts and a Sunday Service 5 times a week, thanks to your generous donations. All this is possible because YOU pray for us, YOU support us, and YOU give so we can continue growing.

But whatever you do, don’t do nothing. Time is short and we need your help right now. The Lord has given us an open door with a tremendous ‘course’ for us to fulfill that will create an excellent experience at the Judgement Seat of Christ. Please pray for our efforts, and if the Lord leads you to donate, be as generous as possible. The war is REAL, the battle HOT and the time is SHORT…TO THE FIGHT!!!

“Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;” Titus 2:13 (KJB)
