God gave the son His Kingship...He did not give Mary a royal position, the catholic church did, nothing recorded as such in scripture. He gave Mary the privledge of being His mother...but more importantly that He came from the Father ......

In the Hebrew tradition, the mother of the king has the title of Queen.

nothing recorded as such in scripture.

Sola scriptura aside, Christ as King and Mary as his mother and mothers of Kings... I don't believe that is a big matter of scriptural dispute.

He gave Mary the privledge of being His mother...but more importantly that He came from the Father

It takes both to have the Incarnation. According to the creeds, Christ is both fully man and full God. I think to try to separate and weight portions out of the Incarnation is the way of heresy.

Thanks for your reply.
