Using Mary to throwup blockades to Jesus will certainly lead to death for many who may have been “lead by His Spirit” otherwise to Him.

Many people find Jesus through Mary because she is tender, like a sinless mother would be. Christ is Lord, and he will judge. So yes, for a grievous sinner, they might fear him. So why cut off paths to Christ?

....”people find Jesus through Mary because she is tender”...

And Jesus isn’t????

Seeing the people,’ He felt compassion’ for them, because they were distressed and dispirited like sheep without a shepherd...Matt 9:36

The LORD longs ‘to be gracious’ to you, And therefore He waits on high ‘to have compassion’ on you’...Isaiah 30:18

“Therefore, behold, I will allure her, Bring her into the wilderness And ‘speak kindly to her’...hosea 2:14

“But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and felt ‘compassion for him’, and ran and embraced him and kissed him.....Luke 15

When He went ashore, He saw a large crowd, and felt compassion for them..Matt14:14

Moved with compassion, Jesus stretched out His hand and touched him...Mark1:41

Because of ‘the tender’ mercy of our God, With which the Sunrise from on high will visit us...Luke 1:78

No, He doesn't.

He came into the world to save the world not to judge it.

God the Father is the judge of unbelievers.

Jesus only judgment mentioned is for the works of believers to determine if they are worthy or not. It is NOT a judgment for or of salvation.

Mary is not a path to Jesus. Jesus said “come unto me”. Mariology is built on fiction not the word of God.

Jesus is tender; like a SINLESS Savior IS!

The RCC has made Him into a FEARSOME creature!

The Gospels tell of crowds crying out “Son of David, have mercy on us!”

There are no reports of “Mary, talk to your Son for us!”
