Where does scripture, Jesus, or his apostles speak of 'two sinless mediators and advocates', or 'Mother of God', or 'rosaries'?
This rule isn't a valid rule because we can't apply it to all Christian beliefs.

E.g. where does scripture, Jesus, or his apostles speak of the book of Hebrews as being the inspired word of God? They don't, so are we to reject the book as being the inspired word of God? We don't get to pick and choose what Christian belief to apply that rule to.

Valid consistent rule:
Hebrews is in the scriptures; where is 'two sinless mediators and advocates', or 'Mother of God', or 'rosaries' mentioned in the scriptures?

Hebrews is in scriptures now but it wasn't at the start of Christianity. Hebrews was added to scripture. So no the rule is not consistent.
 
I will pray for you tonight. Therefore, I will be a mediator between you and Jesus.
You are not a mediator,you are an intercessor. When you are truly born again these scripture will make sense to you.

There Is One Mediator 1 Timothy 2:5-6 For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all, which is the testimony given at the proper time.

Which is the One Mediator/Mediatrix of the New Covenant: Jesus or Mary?
No one has claimed this ^ but you.
CCC-969 “This motherhood of Mary in the order of grace continues uninterruptedly from the consent which she loyally gave at the Annunciation and which she sustained without wavering beneath the cross, until the eternal fulfilment of all the elect. Taken up to heaven she did not lay aside this saving office but by her manifold intercession continues to bring us the gifts of eternal salvation .... Therefore the Blessed Virgin is invoked in the Church under the titles of Advocate, Helper, Benefactress, and Mediatrix.”

What???Sometimes I find it hard to believe what RCs post. All RCs believe in Mary as co mediatrix.

Catechism 969

This motherhood of Mary in the order of grace continues uninterruptedly from the consent which she loyally gave at the Annunciation and which she sustained without wavering beneath the cross, until the eternal fulfillment of all the elect. Taken up to heaven she did not lay aside this saving office but by her manifold intercession continues to bring us the gifts of eternal salvation … Therefore the Blessed Virgin is invoked in the Church under the titles of Advocate, Helper, Benefactress, and Mediatrix."

This is not scripture.



But scripture is clear there is only one.

1 Tim 2:5

For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus,

Of course Mary being co anything is just an add on to scripture which is breaking a commandment.

Jesus is our intercessor:

Roms 8
34 Who then is the one who condemns? No one. Christ Jesus who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us.

1 John 2:1+

My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have an advocate with the Father—Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. 2 He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world.

If you want to understand the role of Mediatrix then you need to understand the role that Eve played. She assisted Adam in the downfall of Man. Mary assisted Jesus in Man's redemption.
