Again, there is nothing in the Bible showing Mary to be our personal mother. This sounds nice and thoughtful, but is not Biblical and could be considered heretical. A personal Savior ...

1. still thinking about the term "personal" in the KJV; is it there ?
2. regarding blessed Mary, the mother of God wih us, I find this When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son! Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home.
3. I suppose the relevant question is "Are you a Disciple that Jesus loves?"

Dude, you torturing the Scripture to get something out of it that's not in there.

Keeping things in context is key in understanding the Bible. The text you are citing has nothing to do with Mary being our personal mother. Jesus is giving John legal responsibility to take care of Mary at this point. That is clear from the text as it says John took her into his own home.

This was a responsibility He only gave to John.

Does Jesus love me? Yes. Do I love Him? Yes. He died for me and literally nailed my sins to the cross and wiped clean the certificate of debt against me.

If we don't have a personal relationship, that is a one on one relationship with Christ, what do we have?
