Why I'm Not Roman Catholic or Eastern Orthodox: Part VIII | Marian Dogma - Scripture and Tradition

What this episode covers

Pr. Shannon discusses Christ and Mary in light of the Scriptures and tradition. Summary: The Biblical witness of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John sound much different when speaking of Mary than Papists do. Tertullian, Chrysostom, Hilary of Poitiers, and Cyril of Alexandria sound much different, even explicitly contrary to Roman dogma regarding Mary. When considering all of these things, I think it is safer to assume that Mary, while a great saint, and given a great honor, was like us in that she had her doubts, her sins, and she grew in sanctification and understanding just like all of us.
