Emphasis on Mary's motherhood of Jesus Christ; and Jesus Christ her Savior and Son is the one reason why Blessed Mary's motherhood was so immensely significant and consequential.

I see you never call her Blessed.

I see you never call her Blessed.

I accord to Mary what Luke did... 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. Luke 1:48 NASB

Mary will be counted as blessed....not called Blessed. There is a difference in how Luke portrays Mary's statement and how Roman Catholicism portrays Mary's statement.

I'll take Luke's account over Rome's any day of the week.

I see you never call her Blessed.

Mary was amazingly blessed by God to bear Messiah.

Scripture never says she is blessed to a place above other woman, but "blessed among women."

Of all women, she alone was selected to bear Messiah.

She isn't above anyone else. Scripture doesn't say this.

As to "calling her Blessed," literally the Greek says...

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

It doesn't say everyone is to call her "Blessed Mary."

Never?

You Catholics use it as a TITLE.

WE PROTs see it as a quality.
