As the obedient, infinitely holy Son of God, the Lord Jesus was a very firm believer in the commandment to honor one's father and mother. Now, what most people don't know about that commandment is that in Hebrew it literally reads, "Glorify your father and mother." This means that, since Christ took God's commandments very seriously, he would glorify his mother Mary, and for us to talk about his mother in a cavalier, irreverent manner is to impugn the glory which Christ himself has given her. As a result, if we were to talk about Mary in an impious manner then we would be offending not only Mary but also Christ by denying his mother the glory that he himself gave her.
We know that from time to time God picks certain people to play a special role in his plan: Abraham had a special role, Moses had a special role, David had a special role, and Christ had by far the most special role of all. But except in the case of Christ, each of these people received their special role as an act of God's grace. Apart from God's grace, there was nothing special about Abraham or Moses or David. They were special people and had a special role only because of the grace God gave them. And the same is true of Mary. Everything that was special about her and her place in God's plan came from God's grace. After all, isn't this what we are saying when we pray the words of the Angel Gabriel in Luke's gospel, "Hail Mary, full of grace." Everything about Mary, everything that makes her and her place in God's plan different from ours, is only because of God's grace to her. Mary is entirely a product of God's tender, loving grace.
I agree that Mary the mother of Jesus, as opposed to the mother of God, since God always was and always will be, was a very special person. I’m not sure what you mean by “cavalier”?
Matthew 12:47-49 (New International Version) New International Version (NIV)
47Someone told him, "Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to speak to you."
48He replied to him, "Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?" 49Pointing to his disciples, he said, "Here are my mother and my brothers.
Christ had by far the most special role of all. I think we agree that Christ is God and is the messiah predicted by the Jewish prophets? Would you agree that without the blood sacrifice of Christ that all else is totally without effect to bring about redemption and salvation?
." Everything about Mary, everything that makes her and her place in God's plan different from ours, is only because of God's grace to her. Mary is entirely a product of God's tender, loving grace. I agree. Mary is very special and unique in God’s plan for salvation. Through her physical body God provided the complete sacrifice for our sins. Mary is the mother of the God man who gave his life on the cross so that we may have everlasting life. Those of us who place our faith in Christ and accept Gods free gift of salvation will have everlasting life.
