A lot of People are skeptical about the #Catholic view of #Mary. They're worried we worship Mary and they don't understand why we honor Her the way we do. Throughout history, many saints have made it clear that Mary is not only the perfect way to Heaven, but She is God's chosen path to bring us to Christ. #blessedMother #ourLady "We never give more honour to Jesus than when we honour his Mother, and we honour her simply and solely to honour him all the more perfectly. We go to her only as a way leading to the goal we seek - Jesus, her Son." - St. Louis De Montfort "Men do not fear a powerful hostile army as the powers of hell fear the name and protection of Mary." - St. Bonaventure “No one will ever be the servant of the Son without serving the Mother.” - Saint Ildephonsus, Bishop #1 Mary is Jesus' Mother Let's go back in time to the year 431. There's this guy named Nestorius, and he's telling everyone that Mary should be called the "Christotokos" or the "Christ-Bearer." Basically, Nestorius was implying that there were two separate person joined together in Jesus Christ.

But why am I so favored, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? - Luke 1:43 “Woman, why do you involve me?” Jesus replied. “My hour has not yet come.” **His mother** said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.” - John 2:1 There's not a passage in the bible referring the Mary as "Mother of part of Jesus" or anything like that. "The Virgin Mary, being obedient to his word, received from an angel the glad tidings that she would bear God" - St. Irenaeus Mary is the Mother of Jesus, She is the means by which God entered this world. Does this mean that God cannot act in this world without Mary? Absolutely not. What it means is that God has chosen Mary to be the means by which He enters this world, both physically, as the Person of Jesus Christ, and spiritually, as He showers down His graces through Mary, the "Mediatrix of all Graces." #2 Mary Wants Us To Be Closer To Her Son St. Louis De Montfort says the following about Mary "*She is an echo of God, speaking and repeating only God. If you say “Mary” she says “God.” When St. Elizabeth praised Mary calling her blessed because she had believed, Mary, the faithful echo of God, responded with her canticle, “My soul glorifies the Lord.”* No one loves and serves God bet ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6AVfaOzVZkY
