Christianity is ALL about JESUS, The Christ,....So is Mary; so is devotion to Mary.

Wrong. It's not biblical - and the Word always was and always will be. The Great 'I AM' doesn't change, so His Word won't be changing to make it biblical.

He answered: "'Love the Lord your God with ALL your heart and with ALL your soul and with ALL your strength and with ALL your mind'; and, 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'"

GOD gets it ALL. Well, for those that HEAR and OBEY who are HIS and are saved. The others do what they want anyway.

"... Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honor, and power, and might, be TO OUR GOD FOREVER and EVER. Amen."

No man, no Mary, no Moses, no Abraham, no 'if I perish, I perish', Esther, and no 'the greatest of these is' John the Baptist - no idolatry at all. It's ALL about JESUS!

He answered: "'Love the Lord your God with ALL your heart and with ALL your soul and with ALL your strength and with ALL your mind'; and, 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'" GOD gets it ALL

Why are you even discussing this with me? You've already decided that God gets it all, but one's neighbor gets some, which is incoherent. OR it's not incoherent because God gets all the love appropriate to God, and one's neighbor gets love appropriate to one's neighbor.

So then there might be love appropriate to Mary since she is a neighbor.

what does "All" mean when God gets ALL but there's still some for one's neighbor?

It's not so clear I'm wrong by the argument you present.

Mary is quoted several times in the new testament.

Every man is a better Christian if he is familiar with the the portions of God’w Word that contain beautiful humble reverent loving Godly words from Mary, for her words are helpful to us so that we might better know and serve Christ.

One of the gospel events that my family and I meditate on regularly is the occasion of Jesus’ debut into public life at Cana, which is introduced and launched with a poignant sentence from Mary that all by itself would be the only gospel message one would ever need to know: “Do whatever He tells you.”

Mary points someone in need to her Son, whom she is certain will meet that need - all the needy person must is to listen and obey.

And the wine that flows when we follow Mary’s simple catechism of Jseus is the best possible and most unexpected grace we could ever receive.

Mary is our friend and companion as we journey toward Jesus. God deigned that Mary’s “Do whatever he tells” would be uttered as an intimate and permanently recorded element of Christ’s first miracle.

Amen!

If your sect rejects this gospel truth then your sect is an abomination and an offense to God.
