Gabriel's words informed Mary that God had declared she would carry the Christ child to term.

Luk 1:28 And the angel being come in, said unto her: Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.

Any thing else, certainly the Mariology of the RCC, is idolatry since it gives to a creature the glory that belongs to God alone.

The Catholic Church does no such thing.

Yes, God blessed Mary by ordaining that she would carry the Christ child to term.

She was not sinless; she did not ascend to heaven bodily; she is not a "co-redeemer;" she does not share in performing Christ's work of redemption on the cross...

The list of corrections seems endless some days.
