And indeed she is blessed. The most Blessed.

But why do you say she is a Goddess...a Mediatrix.

That is blasphemy.

You do her a dishonor to say that.

She is a servant. You have been sold a lie...though most likely an innocent lie.

Okay great! She’s blessed!

Now, just Who blessed her?

And guess Who has the power to bless us?

“From now on all generations will call me blessed, for the Mighty One has done great things for me—holy is his name.” Luke 1:49

First, let's get the passage correct. It will put the proper emphasis on where it's supposed to be...and it's not Mary.

Luke 1:48-49 (NASB)

48 “For He has had regard for the humble state of His bondslave; For behold, from this time on all generations will count me blessed.

49“For the Mighty One has done great things for me; And holy is His name.

The Greek reads as "will count be blessed." It's a verb in the Future tense.

It's not a title.
