Wrong again, Bucko. Just because your 500 year old (if even that old) man-made religion doesn’t practice it, doesn’t dispute the fact the early Christians used them.
Pebbles and beads were used by Christians to track how many prayers had been said as far back as the 3rd Century.
The Hail Mary began to be prayed on these sets of beads in the 10th and 11th Centuries. Soon, they added an Our Father after every ten Hail Marys, to break up the monotony. The Cistercians and Carthusians around this time created a “Marian Psalter” that consisted of reciting the Hail Mary 150 times, but there were no mysteries attached to them.
Here we see the rosary taking shape: 150 Hail Marys divided into “decades,” groups of ten, separated by the Our Father.
Then, St. Dominic arrived on the scene. In 1208, he went into a forest to pray for guidance in his fight against the Albigensian heresy. Mary appeared and spoke to him. She said “Wonder not that until now you [St. Dominic] have obtained so little fruit by your labors; … When God willed to renew the face of the earth, He began by sending down on it the fertilizing rain of the Angelic Salutation. Therefore, preach my Psalter.”
St. Dominic was familiar with the Marian Psalter, of using beads to pray 150 Hail Marys.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Look, you want to play jeapordy with your salvation & think that “once saved, always saved”. You had a chance to discover the true faith & centuries of Christian tradition but you rejected it. Sorry, I believe you’re gonna have a hard wake up call on the Judgement thrown. I pray for your soul & your conversion to the true Christian faith; not man made ones.
Guess what? Babylonians believed Tammuz was miraculously conceived with a golden penis. Tammuz, ISIS & Ra were the original Holy Trinity.
Don’t the true Christians believe in the Holy Trinity?? Yes they do.
Simply because Pagans have certain customs, doesn’t discount the power of spiritual warfare.
You reject 1,700 years of Christian tradition at your own Peril. I chose to follow what the early Christians were doing. What the TRUE church founded by Jesus has been doing for centuries.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Look, you want to play jeapordy with your salvation & think that “once saved, always saved”.
You have no idea what I believe because you don't know your Bible very well.
Philippians 2:12
Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
Proverbs 24:16
16 For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief.
I believe one can be baptized and then turn around and commit a sin or multiple sins which they do not repent for. Like the thorns in the parable of the sower, their sins will choke them.
Matthew 13:7
And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them:
And you said it yourself, early Christians didn't use prayer beads until the 3rd century, when the pagan Constantine turned Christianity into a state religion and incorporated pagan traditions including Sunday worship into the mix.
Prayer is about a personal relationship with your Savior.
The "Our Father" teaches us how to pray in a way that pleases God.
It's an example prayer, and a prayer to model our own after.
I'm not sure why you believe saying the same prayer over and over means anything or is part of spiritual warfare other than tradition. It's certainly not in the Bible, and it even contradicts the very words of Yeshua.
It dates back to Babylon, same as the "Queen of Heaven" you're praying to.

I simply pray to God through our one mediator, Christ the Lord. The Holy Spirit that dwells within me is my advocate.
Let’s hope God is merciful to us all. We are living in times of deep deception.
Again, the Babylonians/Sumerians were using prayer beads 6000 years ago.

And it's no coincidence you couldn't find evidence of prayer beads before the pagan traditions began to infiltrate the Roman Catholic Church.
