I highly recommend that everyone read the Book "Secret of the Rosary".  There are so many secrets regarding Our Lady and the Rosary.  There is an open source PDF for free on the internet.  You don't even have to spend any money to get it.

Ecclesiasticus 4:21 And will disclose her secrets to him, and will heap upon him treasures of knowledge and understanding of justice.

The Rosary is the key to truth, knowledge and understanding.  

Padre Pio had many things to say regarding the Rosary.

* "Pray the rosary frequently. It costs so little, and it's worth so much!"  

* "We can't live without the Rosary."  

* "Say the rosary, and pray it every day."  

* “Love the Madonna and pray the Rosary, for her Rosary is the weapon against the evils of the world today. All graces given by God pass through the Blessed Mother.”  

* "The Rosary is the weapon given us by Mary to use against the tricks of the infernal enemy."  

* "Mary has recommended the Rosary at Lourdes and Fatima because of it's exceptional value for us and our times."  

* "The rosary is the prayer of the Madonna, the one that triumphs on everything and everybody."    

* "Satan always tries to destroy the rosary, but he will never succeed."   [the divine mercy chaplet was the attempt!]

* "Mary has taught us the rosary just as Jesus taught us the Our Father".  

But few care about Our Lady and the Rosary, to their own destruction.  This is why, few are saved.  All People truly need to seriously consider that Mary is necessary for salvation.  There is a narrow gate and a wide gate.  Mary is the narrow gate.  The devil is the wide gate.  In the beginning, God said that there will be enmity [war] between the woman and the devil, her seed and the seed of the devil.  The woman is Mary.

Genesis 3:15  I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head, and thou shalt lie in wait for her heel.

Apocalypse 12:1-2, 17  And a great sign appeared in heaven: A woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars: And being with child, she cried travailing in birth, and was in pain to be delivered.  And the dragon was angry against the woman: and went to make war with the rest of her seed, who keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

Mary, is the destroyer of all heresies, she crushes the head of the devil, which represents the pride and lies of the devil.

Pascendi Dominici Gregis-Pope Pius X - 1907

On the Doctrine of the Modernists

57. Meanwhile, Venerable Brethren, fully confident in your zeal and energy, We beseech for you with Our whole heart the abundance of heavenly light, so that in the midst of this great danger to souls from the insidious invasions of error upon every hand, you may see clearly what ought to be done, and labor to do it with all your strength and courage. May Jesus Christ, the author and finisher of our faith, be with you in His power; and may the Immaculate Virgin, the destroyer of all heresies, be with you by her prayers and aid.

58. Given at St. Peter’s, Rome, September 8, 1907, in the fifth year of Our Pontificate. PIUS X, POPE

Without grace, all men are dead!

Ecclesiasticus 20:21  A man without grace is as a vain fable, it shall be continually in the mouth of the unwise.  [A liar]

Hebrews 12:15 Looking diligently, lest any man be wanting to the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up do hinder, and by it many be defiled.

1 Corinthians 1:7  So that nothing is wanting to you in any grace, waiting for the manifestation of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Mary, is the Vessel of Grace, for which all graces pass through the hands of Mary.  Mary, is the Gate of Heaven, by which all men must pass through.  The Litany of the Blessed Virgin Mary, tells us so!

Litany of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

… Mother of divine grace, pray for us. …  Virgin most merciful, pray for us. …  Seat of wisdom, pray for us. …  Spiritual vessel, pray for us.    
Vessel of honor, pray for us.   Singular vessel of devotion, pray for us. … Tower of David, pray for us.  Tower of ivory, pray for us. House of gold, pray for us.  Ark of the Covenant, pray for us.  Gate of Heaven, pray for us. ...

Solomon's Temple was not only a prefigurement of the Catholic church but also a prefigurement of Mary i.e. Tower of David, Tower of Ivory, House of Gold, the Gate of Heaven.  The old testament reveals this clearly.  There are so many secrets about Mary in the old testament.  

3 Kings [1 Kings] 10:18  King Solomon also made a great throne of ivory: and overlaid it with the finest gold.

3 Kings [1 Kings] 6:21-22 And the house before the oracle he overlaid with most pure gold, and fastened on the plates with nails of gold. [22] And there was nothing in the temple that was not covered with gold:

Has anyone ever wondered why Mary, appeared to the children of Fatima on the 13th day of the month, for six months in 1917?  There is a description of the gate of Solomon's Temple, that is rebuilt, after the destruction that was made by King Nebuchadnezzar, in the book of Jeremias.  Ezekiel describes his vision of the rebuilding of the gate and the Temple.  Ezekiel was one of the men taken captive by King Nebuchadnezzar.

Prophecy of Ezekiel 40:6,11 And he came to the gate that looked toward the east, … and the length of the gate thirteen cubits:

The gate of heaven, the perpetual virgin Mary, visited upon the three children at Fatima, Portugal.  Mary, as virgin, is a garden enclosed, because the Lord, the Prince, hath entered in.

Prophecy of Ezekiel 43:1-2 And he brought me to the gate that looked towards the east. And behold the glory of the God of Israel came in by the way of the east:

Ezekiel 44:1-3 And he brought me back to the way of the gate of the outward sanctuary, which looked towards the east: and it was shut.  And the Lord said to me: This gate shall be shut, it shall not be opened, and no man shall pass through it: because the Lord the God of Israel hath entered in by it, and it shall be shut For the prince.

Luke 1:31-32,35  Behold thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and shalt bring forth a son; and thou shalt call his name Jesus. [32] He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the most High; and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of David his father; … And the angel answering, said to her: The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the most High shall overshadow thee.  And therefore also the Holy which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.

Canticles 4:12 …, my spouse, is a garden enclosed, a garden enclosed, a fountain sealed up.

Prophecy of Jeremias 31:22 ... for the Lord hath created a new thing upon the earth: A WOMAN SHALL COMPASS A MAN.

And so it is, Mary is truly the narrow gate of Heaven, that is spoken of in Matthews gospel!  She compasses all of her children under her mantle.  All men must pass through this gate.  But most [the many] do not!  And this is what the many and the few pertain to in the bible, its about the fact that few, have devotion to the Immaculate heart of Mary and the recitation of the Rosary.  Noe's ark, was a foreshadow of Mary, the living Ark and only eight persons were saved.  The old testament ark was also a foreshadow of Mary, the living Ark and only two men of the first generation that came out of Egypt, were saved and allowed to pass into the Promised Land i.e. Josue and Caleb.  All the rest, of the first generation, died in the desert.

Ecclesiasticus 6:21-23  How very unpleasant is wisdom to the unlearned, and the unwise will not continue with her.  She shall be to them as a mighty stone of trial, and they will cast her from them before it be long.  For the wisdom of doctrine is according to her name, and she is not manifest unto many,…

Matthew 7:13-14 Enter ye in at the narrow gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way that leadeth to destruction, and many there are who go in thereat. How narrow is the gate, and strait is the way that leadeth to life: and few there are that find it!

Ecclesiasticus 24:24-25  I am the mother of fair love ... in me is all hope of life ..."

St. Louis De Montfort: “As there are secrets of nature by which natural operations are performed more easily, in a short time and at little cost; so are there secrets in the order of grace by which supernatural operations, such as ridding ourselves of self, filling ourselves with God, and becoming perfect, are performed more easily. The practice which I am about to disclose [of true devotion to Mary] is one of these secrets, unknown to the greater number of Christians, known even to few of the devout, and practiced and relished by a lesser number still.”

St. Louis De Montfort (+1710): “Blessed Alan de la Roche who was so deeply devoted to the Blessed Virgin had many revelations from her and we know that he confirmed the truth of these revelations by a solemn oath. Three of them stand out with special emphasis: the first, that if people fail to say the Hail Mary (the Angelic Salutation which has saved the world) out of carelessness, or because they are lukewarm, or because they hate it, this is a sign that they will probably and indeed shortly be condemned to eternal punishment.”

All men throughout the day should say "Hail Mary's" and the Rosary, sincerely, everyday.  Truly, you will be amazed how your eyes will be opened, regarding the grace of knowledge and understanding!

Ecclesiasticus 24:24-26 I am the mother of fair love, and of fear, and of knowledge, and of holy hope. In me is all grace of the way and of the truth, in me is all hope of life and of virtue. Come over to me, all ye that desire me, and be filled with my fruits.

The Saints of the new testament were made Saints because of Mary, they had a devotion to Mary.  All sanctifying grace comes from the Holy Ghost, but through the hands of Mary.  St. Louis De Montfort said that you could make a new road to Jesus for him and adorn it with all sorts of heavenly things but he would rather have the perfect path of the immaculate way of Mary!

St. Louis De Montfort, True Devotion to Mary #39: “We must not confuse devotion to the Blessed Virgin with devotions to the other saints, as if devotion to her were not far more necessary than devotion to them, and as if devotion to her were a matter of supererogation [extra special devotion].

St. Louis De Montfort (+1706): “Make for me, if you will, a new road to go to Jesus, and pave it with all the merits of the blessed, adorn it with all their heroic virtues, illuminate and embellish it with all the lights and beauties of the angels, and let all the angels and saints be there themselves, to escort, defend and sustain those who are ready to walk there; and yet in truth, I say boldly, and I repeat that I say truly, I would prefer to this new, perfect path the immaculate way of Mary.” (True Devotion to Mary #158)
