This is why no will discuss Revelation 12:13 or reply to why Our Lord keeps addressing Mary as the “woman.”

“Jesus does not address His mother as ‘the’ “woman”. Rather, as “woman” as he more frequently addresses more women as He does throughout His ministry.”

OLD REGGIE,

First, I didn’t put THE in quotes, I put woman in quotes.

I have to repeat it again, you don’t have to give quotes
of where Our Lord called someone else “woman.” The OP
and the discussion is about when Our Lord addressed His
mother as “woman.”

No where in Scripture does a son call his mother “woman.”
Our Lord is teaching you, from the Old Covenant, who
the “woman” is...

Protestants reject Mary, so they object and say no.
It was the reformers (revolters) who did this, you don’t
have to. Satan did the same, it’s been revealed.

____________________

Protest and then run away, you never replied to the above because you can’t.

I am going with “many” of the Church Fathers and the saints, they were closer to Christ. You choose to reject Mary and follow adulterous King James and his fellas, his translators.

Again, the devil could not handle God would ask Mary,
a mere human to help in mankind’s redemption.

You’re doing the same. Don’t listen any longer to heretics. You didn’t come with their heresies and denials.

Affirmations of the Belief that Jesus Will Crush satan:

“the Son of God appeared that he might destroy the works of the devil” (1st John 3:8).

“Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might destroy him who holds the power of death—that is, the devil” (Hebrews 2:14).

“Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say: ‘Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ. For the accuser of our brothers, who accuses them before our God day and night, has been hurled down. They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death’” (Revelation 12:10-11).

Justin Martyr wrote, “Christ is born of the Virgin, in order that the disobedience caused by the serpent might be destroyed.”

Pope-Saint Leo the Great wrote, “at the beginning of the world [God], foretold the remedy his love had prepared for the restoration of us mortals, giving notice to the serpent that the offspring of the woman would come and, by his power, crush its baneful head as it was raised to strike.”

The following Bibles also read he and his for Genesis 3:15:

The Bible in Living English has “issue” instead of “seed” and “it-its” instead of “he-his.”

New English Bible has “brood” instead of “seed” and “they-their” instead of “he-his.”
