WHAT sins did she commit?? LIES?? CHEATING??? CURSING?? MURDER??? Please tell me what sins she committed.....please tell us all..yeah.....SO MANY you can't name them, I guess. Yeah...MAry was a HUGE sinner!

The bible says if you break ONE of the commandments you have broken them all (Jam 2:10)... so if she every talked back to her mother, she would be an adulterer and murder and a thief.. just as we all are..

My question was does the state of HER soul affect our salvation??

Mary was the Ark of the New Covenant -- carrying Christ within her womb. Of course, she was pure and sinless. Why would anyone ever doubt that?

Doesn't the Bible also say that ALL have sinned and have fallen short of the glory of God?

If Mary DIDN'T sin, then the Bible itself must be a lie.

Strawman.

The Church teaching is that Christ's sacrifice is what won us our Salvation. Church teaching is that His sacrifice is super-sufficient for our salvation.

Mary was the tool, the ark for holding God. This ark had to be purified, pure, clean, filled with grace to be able to bear God.

Just as the Ark of the First Covenant was so powerful that even priests who were uncleansed and men who aimed to prevent it from falling could get filled by one touch, so even more so the Ark of the second, greater, covenant had to be pure, filled utterly with grace.

All for God, all by God -- Mary did NOT save herself, she needed salvation and got that from her God, her Son, her Savior. Jesus saved Mary, He was her savior. He saved her, protected her from sin.

You posted...”so if she every talked back to her mother, she would be an adulterer and murder and a thief.. just as we all are..”

Good taste - and rules for posting on Free Republic - prohibit me from saying what I really think about that post.

Well, does her virginity affect our salvation? Some progressive Christians think not. To them Matthew and Luke are just fables.
