Your personal uninspired comment: “There is NOTHING in the book that Rome assembled that even SUGGESTS that Mary was without sin.”

It appears that many here are baptized Catholics that have abandoned the teachings of Jesus and the Catholic church to pursue their own teachings and opinions. Like the protestors in the streets, many here only accept their own spin and do not objectively or with faith accept the teachings of Jesus and His church.

Like Jesus, we rejoice when he finds the lost sheep and we pray for their return.

1. Mary is revealed to be “full of grace” in Luke 1:28.

2. Mary is revealed to be the fulfillment of the prophetic “Daughter of Zion” of Zech. 2:10; Zeph. 3:14-16; Isaiah 12:1-6, etc.

3. Mary is revealed to be “the beginning of the new creation” in fufillment of the prophecy of Jer. 31:22.

4. Mary is revealed to possess a “blessed state” parallel with Christ’s in Luke 1:42.

5. Mary is not just called “blessed” among women, but “more blessed than all women” (including Eve) in Luke 1:42.

6. Mary is revealed to be the spotless “Ark of the Covenant” in Luke 1.

7. Mary is revealed to be the “New Eve” in Luke 1:37-38; John 2:4; 19:26-27; Rev. 12, and elsewhere.

8. Mary is revealed to be free from the pangs of labor in fulfillment of Isaiah 66:7-8.

Is trumped by...

Your personal, absolute LACK of any verses that even HINTS at Mary was/is sinless.

Mary gave a SIN offering (shown in Rome's book)

Sinless Mary??

Luke 2:22-24

When the time came for the purification rites required by the Law of Moses, Joseph and Mary took him to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord (as it is written in the Law of the Lord, “Every firstborn male is to be consecrated to the Lord”), and to offer a sacrifice in keeping with what is said in the Law of the Lord: “a pair of doves or two young pigeons.”

Leviticus 12:7-8

Then he shall offer it before the LORD and make atonement for her, and she shall be cleansed from the flow of her blood. This is the law for her who bears a child, whether a male or a female.
'But if she cannot afford a lamb, then she shall take two turtledoves or two young pigeons, the one for a burnt offering and the other for a sin offering; and the priest shall make atonement for her, and she will be clean.'"

8. Mary is revealed to be free from the pangs of labor in fulfillment of Isaiah 66:7-8.

If you are going to TRY to say these verses are about Mary; then you MUST also accept ALL of #8 as about her as well.

7 “Before she goes into labor,
she gives birth;
before the pains come upon her,
she delivers a son.

8
Who has ever heard of such things?
    Who has ever seen things like this?
Can a country be born in a day
    or a nation be brought forth in a moment?
Yet no sooner is Zion in labor
    than she gives birth to her children.

Kinds messes with the Catholic teaching that Mary had no OTHER children; doesn't it!
