Hello George,

>SA>Having set the stage for universal "acceptance" of the
"noachide laws",
>SA>the proponents can move to the next phases - the rejection of salvation
>SA>by grace through faith in Jesus Christ and His atoning death for for
>SA>sin on the cross, and subsequent resurrection to eternal life in favour
>SA>of salvation through the law. Note: if righteousness came through the
>SA>law, then Christ has died in vain (E.g. Galatians 2: 16-21).

GP>Jesus was certainly a sincere Jew, but he was just as certainly NOT the
GP>Messiah!

The Jewish concept of Messiah is different from the Christian concept
of Messiah.

>SA>They reject Jesus Christ as the one mediator between God and man, who
>SA>gave himself as a ransom for all (as in 1 Timothy 2: 5 and 6), in favour

GP>So does the largest Christian sect (the RCC) -- they don't believe
GP>in a single mediator, because they believe Mary is "co-mediatrix with
GP>Christ"(per catechism)

Catholics do not hold a belief in Mary as "co-mediatrix with Christ".
Nor has the Pope, or any previous pope, made any teaching declaring Mary
as "co-mediatrix".  There certainly is nothing in the Catechism of the
Catholic Church stating Mary as "co-mediatrix".  And there is no papal
encyclical stating Mary as "co-mediatrix".
