Luke 1:47:
“47 and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,”

Her spirit rejoiced in God HER SAVIOR. If she was born sinless, she did not require salvation; she was without sin. Christ came to save the sinners (all of us who are predestined, called, etc.) not the sinless. But, since Mary said herself that her spirit rejoiced in God HER SAVIOR, she herself recognized her sinfulness and need of a savior.

Now. I’m done. I hope God will open your heart to him.

Thanks Hoss that was good teaching.

Mary needed her savior but that does not prove that she committed a sin. There are two ways to save someone: by absolving the sin or by giving grace not to sin.
