Session 46: John 1:19-2:5 Why we venerate Mary
Key Points:
1:21 (Asked of John the Baptist:) “Are you Elijah?” (Per Malachi 3:23, Elijah was to reappear before the coming of the Lord.)
1:23 John the Baptist is like Isaiah
(Quotes from Isaiah 40:3)
1:29 “Lamb of God” (At Passover, an unblemished LAMB is sacrificed in an ATTEMPT to pay the price for the people’s sins.
John the Baptist’s is the first of 7 testimonies as to who Jesus is.
2:1-5 We venerate Mary because:
She calls us to follow Christ
She intercedes for us
She shows us (Lk 1:38) by example HOW to follow God.
She inaugurates Jesus’ ministry at Cana
She has led countless millions to Christ
She was at the key moments of Jesus’ministry and the beginning of His Church.
She is ALL of our mothers! (So, if you feel “motherless” sometimes, remember that Mary is YOUR mother, too!)
