My friend prays the rosary. What is that?
"But then the chosen time came. God sent his Son. A woman gave birth to him. He was born under the authority of the law. He came to set free those who were under the authority of the law. He wanted us to be adopted as children with all the rights children have" (Galatians 4:4-5).
"Worship the Lord your God. He is the only one you should serve. When you make promises, do so in his name" (Deuteronomy 6:13).
"There is only one God. And there is only one go-between for God and human beings. He is the man Christ Jesus" (1 Timothy 2:5).
Praying the rosary is praying to Mary by using an object made out of strings and beads.Praying the rosary is utilized in Catholic churches. The rosary is an object made out of strings, beads, and a cross. Catholics use this object when they are praying the rosary. Praying the rosary means a person is praying for help from Mary. Mary was the earthly mother of Jesus.
The Bible never tells us to pray the rosary. The rosary is a tradition made up by the Catholic Church. The only person we should pray to is God. Mary was only a human like us. She cannot answer prayers. Only God hears our prayers. Only He can answer prayers.
Mary did not come to die for us. She was only a servant of the Lord (Luke 1:38). Jesus came to die for us (Galatians 3:13).
Encourage your friend to pray to God.
