Another Virgin Mary Tortilla



The manifestations of Jesus and the Virgin Mary on tortillas is so common new instances start to sound like the start of a bad joke. But here we are again, this time in Harlingen, Texas, where, according to this KRGV report, a couple discovered this image of the Virgin Mary on a freshly made tortilla. The unnamed devout couple considers the form a blessing and have since enshrined the tortilla and taken it to a local church to be blessed.

Roadside America has a great description of the original Jesus tortilla: “No one realized at the time, but the 1977 appearance of Jesus Christ on a flour tortilla set the international standard for miracle sightings . . . the Miracle Tortilla was the first to fully wrap around the collective pop subconscious.” Discovered in New Mexico, the tortilla remained a point of interest until 2005, when the granddaughter of its creator took it to school for show and tell where it broke after being dropped.

Maybe this new one will take the place of the original Miracle Tortilla or inspire another movie, though I doubt it since more are bound to come along . . .

Lol, well, you see what you want to see sometimes i guess.

I whole heartedly believe in Jesus christ, But the whole Tortilla mary miracle things i obviously out there.

Esspecially because the bible says nothing about mary being holy.

The word breaks down confusion and makes i plain and simple in moral and spiritual sense.

Exodus 20:3-4 "You shall have no other gods before me.

4 "You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing love to a thousand {generations} of those who love me and keep my commandments.

Isaiah 42:8 " I am the LORD and that is my name! I will not give my glory to others or in the idols.

That is not the work of God's miracle.. Remember, satan is also powerful, he is the ruler of the world. he can do anything that can prove to ur eyes but on his work. If u believe then like that u worship him too.
