Mary is my sister in Christ, not my mother.
She was an obedient woman who answered when God called.
She is not divine.
She is not without sin.
Nothing in the Bible says she was a perpetual virgin.
Jesus had brothers. May was not required to stay a virgin.
Mary is just a human who was open to the leading of God.
I don’t even believe she intercedes in prayer for people today.
I don’t believe she has appeared to men.
I don’t believe any miracles attributed to her.
Mary is just a human. God blessed her, yes. But she is still a human.
and just to add, I am not an orphan. I have God as my Father.
Thanks for telling the truth.
