[JHavard]

He is right in saying that the cult of the Virgin had many adherents among those to whom the Holy Spirit was a mere abstraction. A mother personifies grace in a way that a bird cannot.

Mt 5:37 But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.

Now let me ask you again, do you agree with what he wrote about Mary's being able to acquire divinity by her own righteousness, and God's Holy Spirit was not needed in her case.
