“Flesh woman?” is there any other kind? And if you are applying this to the mother of Jesus, it is a contemptible thing to say. Further, Jesus himself was born of a woman, which means he was fleshy as well.

Luk 11:27-28 And it came to pass, as he spake these things, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice, and said unto him, Blessed is the womb that bare thee, and the paps which thou hast sucked. (28) But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.

I certainly wouldn’t speak ill of Mary since it’s not her fault that Rome has made a deity out of her. But the idea of Mary as being higher than other women of faith, on top of this idea that her prayers can get us out of purgatory, or that kneeling in front of her statue gives us access to some kind of magical “grace” with which to better our chances of getting into heaven, or that she is a mediator between man and the One True Mediator is pure superstition and idolatry.

IT does not matter what you or I find 'contemptible', it is what the Heavenly Father finds 'contemptible'. Mary was not His wife. In what Rome calls allegory, it is Written that the Heavenly Father divorced Israel for her idolatry/adultery... as she Israel went whoring after her neighbors 'gods'. And Israel's sister Judah did no better. Jeremiah 3:8

Paul who penned most of the so called New Testament wrote ICorinthians 10:11 Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.

And the new pope claims he has dibs on Jesus, that only through him can Jesus be found. OH the folly.
