Mary Questions The Pope - Do The Dead Hear The Prayers of The Living? (Question 5 Of 100)

Описание: In this on-going "what if?" series - Mary, the Mother of Jesus, poses 100 hot-button questions to Pope John Paul II, portraying as the representative of the Roman Catholic Church and the Vatican. This is the Fifth installment Short-form YouTube video series that continues a 100-part series (5/100) examining Roman Catholic doctrines through a biblical lens, challenging teachings that appear to contradict Scripture, the teachings of Jesus Christ, and early apostolic tradition. The series argues that over centuries, the Catholic Church has developed man-made traditions—such as papal infallibility, Mary’s immaculate conception, transubstantiation, and purgatory—that lack clear scriptural foundation and elevate ecclesiastical authority above Sola Scriptura. Drawing from Reformation principles like sola fide (faith alone) and sola gratia (grace alone), the video critiques doctrines that shift salvation toward works-based righteousness. This series challenges Roman Catholic doctrine by examining its alignment with Scripture, early church history, and the teachings of the Vatican.

Further unpacking Catholic Mariology, the video series critiques the dogmatic development of Mary’s perpetual sinlessness, preservation from concupiscence, and her title as the New Eve, contrasting these with Sola Scriptura and the apostolic tradition. It addresses Pope John Paul II’s teachings, including his 1996 General Audience affirming Mary’s freedom from all sin, and questions whether such doctrines represent divine revelation or man-made tradition that elevates the Church’s authority above Scripture. The discussion extends to, the Catechism of the Catholic Church, and the assumption of Mary, revealing how centuries of ecclesiastical tradition have shaped doctrines absent from the New Testament. This series calls believers to test all teachings against the Word of God, emphasizing Christ alone, grace alone, and Scripture alone, while exposing what some view as the Roman Church’s departure from early Christian orthodoxy and its elevation into a human-centered religious system.

The video explores how Catholic Mariology elevates Mary to a co-Redemptrix role through prayers to saints, veneration of relics, and the assumption, despite no biblical record of her bodily ascent. It questions apostolic succession, the papacy, and Peter as first Pope, noting that Acts 15 shows James, not Peter, presiding over the Jerusalem Council. The series confronts Catholic Tradition as equal to Scripture, citing Matthew 15:3–9 where Jesus rebukes human traditions that nullify God’s Word. While Catholics cite 2 Thessalonians 2:15 on oral tradition, the video argues that Sacred Tradition must align with Scripture, not supersede it. By analyzing early church history and Catechism claims, this series calls believers to test all things, return to New Testament Christianity, and reject religious systems that operate outside biblical authority, urging a faith rooted in Christ alone, Scripture alone, and the gospel of the kingdom.
