When was the last time you called Mary blessed? "from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed." Christians throughout the centuries has called Mary blessed, but the modern Protestant movement has taught Christians to either neglect or subltly even dishonor the mother of our Lord, Jesus. Isn't it time for all of us to disposed of our false Protestant teachings and give honor to Mary as the Scriptures encourage us. I do not mean the false adoration that some Catholic sects have developed. Nor do I mean praying to Mary as if she was equalt to God. Simply giving her honor and recognition as the mother of our Lord, and also for the unparallel role she played in bringing forth the salvation of mankind--giving birth to our divine Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

Emile, this surprises me that you are not concerned about the MOther Goddess thing. Really surprises me. This Co-Redeemer, Sole Channel of Grace does not alarm you? Please explain why not, as to me it definitely almost signals the end. I go to Othodox Christian church, and the emphasis on the Virgin Mary ran me off. Are you trying to maintain the balance between not being able to accept Mary and run from the name because of association with the Mother Goddess, as in circles we both know--lots of them, in fact-- and realizing as you say that obviously she does deserve much eternal respect? That is only right. CORRECTION TO THIS POST. JUST SAW THE ANSWER TO MY QUESTION IN YOUR SECOND POST. Well, it sure is interesting and on schedule to get much moreso. It is good for us to get it straight what God's mind is in this matter. Thank you for the balance, as I was running away with my hands over my ears at the mention of Mary for awhile, and that of course is ungodly from any standpoing.
