Sorry but I believe only what the Bible says. Mary was a teenager chosen by God to become pregnant with Jesus, then became pregnant several times afterwards with His siblings. She, like every other woman, was a virgin only until she became pregnant.
Matthew 5:8 -- Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. -- applies to many people, not just Mary.
Why do you exalt Mary far above what God's Word -- the Bible -- clearly says about her?
it is not possible to exalt or praise Mary more than her exalted dignity
She is the divine mother
Mother of God Lk 1:43
Mother of our salvation found our salvation Lk 1:30 consented to salvation lk 1:38
Her existence glorifying God lk 1:46
Mother of God Lk 1:43
Immaculate conception (sinless) gen 3:15 enmity or total war none of satans works are found in Mary!
Also Lk 1:28 full of grace lk 1:49 great things plural (immaculate conception of Mary and the miraculous conception of Jesus) Rev12:1 woman clothed with the sun. Immaculate purity
Lk 1:30 found favor with God (the salvation lost by Adam) mother of our salvation Lk 2:30 and cos she consented to our salvation! Lk 1:38
Perpetual Virgin Isa 7:14 matt 1:21
Lk 1:31-34
Spiritual Mother Jn 19:26-27 rev 12:17
A good tree!
Matthew 7:18
A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
The fruit of the tree of Mary is our salvation! Matt 1:21 Lk 2:30 Jesus is our salvation! This reflects the immaculate conception of Mary and the miraculous conception of Jesus!
Lk 1:30 Mary found our salvation!
Lk 1:38 consented to our salvation!
A good tree (immaculate conception) Lk 1:49 God has done this and it is marvelous in our eyes!
Isa 7:14 Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
Matt 1:23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
A sinner would be an evil tree with evil fruit, but the fruit of Mary is salvation!
Mary brings in the good fruits of our redemption and salvation!
the scripture never says anyone is a biological child of Mary except Jesus
(was a virgin only until she becamepregnant.)
This is denying the Christian doctrine of the virgin birth!
Isa 7:14 virgin shall conceive and BEAR a son
And one son singular
And her son is God
Mary is all powerful!
Not cos she is God but because her son is God!
Parents possess all that belongs to thier children
Mary is the queen of the heavenly kingdom
Christ the word on becoming man was subject to the keeping of his own commandments
Jn 2 the first miracle
His time has not yet come
God established a set time for the public ministry of Christ
Anyone else asked for this miracle and it would not have been done, but a higher law prevailed “honor Thy father and mother” and he worked the miracle and thru her intercession the disciples believed in Him!
Mary’s prayers are always answerd
mary is our spiritual mother, thank God she prays and interceded for us
