Theotokos was never commissioned or empowered to heal or to do miracles, let alone save us.

Just when I think I have you figured out you say something I completely agree with. ;-0

She was commissioned to put forth a miracle of Incarnate God, Who saved us. She accepted it in perfect obedience and humility.

If the doctrines stopped here, it would be one less thing we would disagree about.

I hate when that happens. :)

There is not much more to the doctrine of the Theotokos. Unfortunately, the litugical life tells us otherwise.
