If she is “Full of Grace” as the Bible says, how can she have sin?

Because all have sinned and fall short of the Glory of God. Mary herself said she needs a Savior - again: Luke 1:46,47

Mary admits her estate as the handmaiden of God and not "Mother of God". Admiting her estate as a handmaiden because God used her instrumentally as a vessel to conceive the Lord Jesus Christ. By Mary s own words, she removes any idea of pre-emanance so as not to assume exaltation above God s calling upon her life. "For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed" [Luke 1:48]. "

How? Easy. SHE WAS FULL OF GRACE BECAUSE JESUS WAS INCARNATE IN HER.

She doesn’t have sin. She seeks a savior because of her humility.

Because grace only happens in the presence of sin.

Romans 5:20 Now the law came in to increase the trespass, but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more,

If there's no sin, there's no need for grace.

She had no sin and therefore found favor in Gods eyes.
