Born of a woman, His mother, here, on earth.

Yeah, so? There are no births in heaven. That's the way God designed births - through a woman. He wouldn't go against what He designed nor does He go against His Own Word - like the RCC does.

The discussion wasn't about about birth but what JESUS said who His mother is. It's obvious it rubs catholics the wrong way - and it should. If they agreed with God's Word, they would have to go against the RCC teachings. They are unable to 'think' outside the box the vatican put them in. Perhaps, that's where their victim mentality comes from.

As for me and my household, we serve The Lord. God's Word is The Final Authority. It's is no wonder we are blessed, blessed and blessed!

Luke 11:27,28
"As Jesus was saying these things, a woman in the crowd called out, "Blessed is the mother who gave you birth and nursed you."

Jesus replied, "But even more blessed are all who hear the Word of God and put it into practice." HEAR and OBEY

Yes, but the Incarnation… a one-time event, the birth of our Saviour. And the world was changed forever.

Yes, applying also to His mother:

And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord,
And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.

Thanks for your reply and may God bless you and yours. For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name.
And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation.
He hath shewed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree.
He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away.
He hath helped his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy;
As he spake to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed for ever.

I'm sorry, I accidently pasted my comment in the middle of the scripture verses. Should have been:
"And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord…As he spake to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed for ever."
Thanks for your reply and may God bless you and yours.
