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.

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)

Please Give A Hearty End Times Welcome To ‘Thermonator’, The World’s First Flamethrower-Wielding Robot Attack Dog Straight Out Of Revelation

While it may sound like an episode of Black Mirror, Americans can now purchase a flamethrower-wielding robot dog online from Throwflame called Thermonator.

Have you ever spent a hot, summer afternoon at a water park? I have, and it’s one of my favorite things to do. There is this curious moment that takes place after you enter into the water, right before the thundering force of the jets carry you forward. In that brief, little space, you are calm and peaceful, luxuriously basking in the cool water. Then you reach the main current and woosh!! you go at what feels like a million miles per hour. This is where we are right now with the incoming tide of AI and robot technology, in that brief little moment before the avalanche sweeps us inexorably forward into only God knows what’s coming next.

“Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvellously: for I will work a work in your days, which ye will not believe, though it be told you.” Habakkuk 1:5 (KJB)

The opening years of the 20th century was an overwhelming outpouring of information and global travel and exploration, exactly as Daniel had foreseen in chapter 12 of his book. In America, so many new things were being invented that we felt that nothing was out of our reach, and that we were on the verge of create a thousand year reign of peace and prosperity. Many of the Christian scholars were amillennial, secure in their thinking that we were ‘bringing in the kingdom’. Then WWI hit, and the world watch as all that technology we had just invented was now being used to wage war as never seen before in entire annals of human history. Soldiers literally went insane watching the ‘benefits of modern technology’ helping them to live a ‘better and more prosperous life’. Now here in 2024 we have flamethrower-wielding robot dogs named Thermonator here to meet all our flamethrowing needs as Hell continues to enlarge itself. Check your watch, Christian, it’s later than you think.

Meet the Thermonator: First ever flamethrowing robot dog that shoots jets of fire up to 30 feet hits US market

FROM THE DAILY MAIL UK: Ohio-based Throwflame opened sales for its ‘Thermonator’ Tuesday, selling its 37-pound quadruped machine for $9,420 that is legal in all US states except Maryland. A demonstration video shows a Thermonator creeping and jumping through a forest before torching its surroundings with a 30-foot jet of fire spewing from a flame thrower on its back. Throwflame, based in Cleveland, claims to be the oldest flamethrower manufacturer in the US.

The company released the first-ever full-sized, commercially available flamethrower in 2015, which shoots flames up to 50 feet. ‘This unregulated flamethrower sparked a significant media response relating to legality,’ Throwflame shared on its website. ‘However, flamethrowers remain federally unregulated. This means anyone can buy one without background checks or a waiting period.’

Thermonator appears to be designed like most quadruped robots but has one of Throwflame’s devices attached to its back. The robot dog boasts a variety of cameras and sensors, allowing it to autonomously move throughout its surroundings and find targets to set ablaze. The machine is remotely operated – the demonstration video shows a handler controlling it with a smartphone.

Social media users have weighed in on the machine, comparing it to an episode in the fourth season of Black Mirror titled ‘Metalhead.’

The episode explores what could happen if these machines turned on us, revealing the terrifying quest for survival in a world where robo-dogs can outrun and outsmart humans. X user Rob Sheepe posted: ‘Some real-life Black Mirror ‘Metalhead’ terror right here. How is this legal?’

However, Maryland is the only US state that bans flamethrowers – California requires a permit to own one. Possessing or using a flamethrower in Maryland is punishable by a $250,000 fine and up to 25 years imprisonment.  In 2015, Congress introduced a bill that would treat flamethrowers like machine guns, but was stalled and later dismissed.

Joe Biden Is Right Now Considering Declaring A ‘National Climate Emergency’ That Would Give Him Hitlerian Powers Over The American People

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

The Biden White House is considering declaring a ‘national climate emergency’ to block American energy development while appeasing its extremist environmentalist donor base.

Oh, how I wish this was coming to you today from The Babylon Bee, but sadly it is actual news that is actually happening in Washington right now. Pretend president Joe Biden is being told by third term president Barack Obama that he needs to declare a ‘national climate emergency’, and Biden is actively and seriously considering doing it. Should he declare a national climate emergency, Biden would be granted powers similar to the pandemic where the government suspended the Constitution for ‘the greater good’. Sounds more like the Greater Reich to me.

“But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.” 2 Peter 3:10 (KJB)

With each passing day, if you are following events as they unfold, an orchestrated Joe Biden victory in November grows more and more likely, as prison time for Donald Trump gets closer and closer. I don’t know for sure that that will happen, but that’s currently how things are trending. As outrageous as it may seem for me to site here and tell you that the Democrats just might be planning a coup on the back of a ‘national climate emergency’, I ask you to remember the events that began 1,500 days ago today. We call it the pandemic, and it looks like they are getting ready to lock us down again for ‘the greater good’ of the Earth. We have been telling you for a few years now that the New World Order comes in on the back of Climate Change laws, mandates and regulations. If it happens, when it happens, you may consider that to be Day 1 of the new Civil War.

Biden Considers Ridiculous ‘Climate Emergency’ Declaration

FROM NATIONAL REVIEW: Top advisers to President Joe Biden resumed talks on declaring such an emergency. The goal would be to suspend offshore drilling and oil exports to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, according to Bloomberg.

Top advisers to President Joe Biden resumed talks on declaring such an emergency. The goal would be to suspend offshore drilling and oil exports to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, according to Bloomberg.

Bloomberg states explicitly that the administration knows such a declaration wouldn’t actually help the environment. The real purpose of the announcement is that it “would galvanize climate-minded voters.” This wouldn’t even be the first time this month Biden sacrificed America’s energy interests in the name of his reelection prospects.

“President Biden has treated the climate crisis as an emergency since day one and will continue to build a clean energy future that lowers utility bills, creates good-paying union jobs, makes our economy the envy of the world and prioritizes communities that for too long have been left behind,” White House spokesperson Angelo Fernandez Hernandez told Bloomberg.

In Biden’s head, it’s also not the first time he’s declared a climate emergency.

In an interview last year with the Weather Channel, Biden falsely said that he’d “already done that” when asked whether he intends to declare a climate emergency. The inaccuracy was so blatant that his statement was fact-checked as false by CNN, which is not exactly known as a right-leaning news source. CNN later blamed Biden’s false statement on “the pressure he’s under” to avoid insinuating that the president could possibly be in a state of mental decline. READ MORE

Healthy Third Grade Teacher Proudly Took The COVID Vaccine For Free Krispy Kreme Doughnut, Developed Congestive Heart Failure And Died Weeks Later

Published

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Amanda McCurry, a longtime third-grade teacher at Oak Park Elementary School, died suddenly on Sept. 17, mere months after taking the COVID vaccine in exchange for a FREE Krispy Kreme doughnut

This is a heartbreaking story, and I think by this time, we all know people who took the COVID government injection, got sick shortly after and then died. This is why back in 2020, we began warning people, pleading with them actually, to not take the COVID vaccine, and yet the vast majority of people did. Today we bring you the story of Amanda McCurry, a beloved third grade teacher, who dutifully did as her government demanded, and paid for it with her life.  She died suddenly.

So they poured out for the men to eat. And it came to pass, as they were eating of the pottage, that they cried out, and said, thou man of God, there is death in the pot. And they could not eat thereof.” 2 Kings 4:40 (KJB)

Back in 2021, Fox News 54 reported that “Decatur City Schools is mourning the loss of a beloved teacher. Amanda McCurry was a longtime third-grade teacher at Oak Park Elementary School, as well as an AHSAA volleyball official. Mrs. McCurry was honored by WZDX as a Valley’s Top Teacher in 2019. Staff and students had nothing but nice things to say about her” She was loved by students and her peers alike, and put everything she had in to the job she had as a school teacher.

But Amanda was an early adopter of the COVID vaccine, as we see by her Facebook timeline which is still up. Let’s take a walk through her timeline to see if we can put the pieces together.

  • March 23rd: Mrs. McCurry posted a link to a promotion offered by Krispy Kreme Doughnuts for a FREE glazed doughnut after you show them your COVID vaccination card. She had just gotten hers.
  • July 30th: she posted this: ” I have been having some heart issues since April. I was diagnosed with congestive heart failure because my ejection fraction (pumping) of my heart was found to be 25%, it’s supposed to be between 55-60%. I had no blockages when they did the heart cath.” She went from no health issues to a 25% heart pumping percentage in mere weeks after receiving the government COVID injection. Coincidence? You tell me.
  • September 3rd: she posted “Bring on the vaccine mandates, support America!!”
  • September 8th: Amanda posted a link to an article regarding mandatory COVID vaccine requirements that said in part “There will be new components that sure, will of course impact people across the country, but we’re also all working together to get the virus under control, to return to our normal lives,” she added. When asked if the new steps will affect Americans’ lives, Psaki said, “it depends on if you’re vaccinated or not.”
  • September 17th: beloved teacher and COVID vaccine advocate would be dead.

I personally know people who died this way, and people who didn’t die but became seriously injured by the vaccine. Our hearts go out to the McCurry family, and we hope this article serves as a warning that you cannot trust your government when they tell you a hastily-produced ‘vaccine’ that’s rushed through with hardly any concern or consideration for safety is the only thing that will save you. This was the greatest hoax in modern-day history, it was done purposefully and with malice aforethought. Just be ready when they try it again, because they absolutely will.
