  • "The radiant cloud that bore the Lord of glory has been lifted up-lifted up to him: she who flashed forth his perfect divinity in her body like lightning, who rained down holy gifts from him on everything under heaven. There the orbit of that spiritual moon above our world, which the prophet spoke of (Hab 3:11), comes to completion: the moon which gave birth to the sun who is one of those three suns that share a single substance-the Trinity, as revealed by the tradition of the Fathers. “And the moon stood still in the tracks” of her virginity (Hab 3:11); she is truly the Mother of God, revealing his radiance that all of this creation might come to know its God. She is received with rejoicing and unspeakable delight in the house of God the Father, herself the house which God built for his Son, who dwelt in her without being circumscribed and was flesh from her by the Holy Spirit; who remained in her nine months and became an infant; yet who was God, inseparable from his Father and the Spirit. She who was made the dwelling-place of the consubstantial Trinity has come to a better dwelling-she who is forever his home, having heard from the archangel Gabriel, “The Holy Spirit will come down upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the one born of you will be called holy, the Son of God” (Lk 1:35). So she is glorified above the holy ranks of heaven; she is transplanted from here, as “from glory to glory” (2 Cor 3:18)-the mortal bush that bore the fire of divinity-to the land of the living” (Ps 116:9), where she shall join in radiating the light of the face of Christ our God, who was truly and wholly contained in her womb; preserved unburnt by him, as the one who, above all women, is blessed with the name of Virgin Mother."
    Saint Modestus of Jerusalem (537 AD - 634 AD)

      @@andrewstidham7950 yes ... If a kid is drowning in a pool of water and his mother is standing on the edge... What does the kid say? Mother, save me.
      Only Christ can provide eternal Salvation. But there are other things besides Hell that I need to be saved from...
      It's ok, I know it may sound strange to a Protestant. I mean no disrespect. In Christ, love.
      1 Cor 3:15... Fire saves
      James 5:15. .. prayer saves
      Isa 63:9 ... Angels save
      Every Christian ever .... Mary the Holy Birthgiver of God.. saves. By giving birth to the Savior of our souls.
      Also through her prayer and intersession she rescues us. Mary, Most Holy Mother of God, save us.

    Please don't worship the Virgin Mary. She was a great woman with beautiful faith. She was an instrument in God's hand to fulfill God's purpose. She isn't divine. She has no power to save us. She's not worthy of worship. She's worthy of great respect and honor in the church... But only as a member of the church that belongs to Jesus Christ alone.

      Thank you, brother for trying to care for our souls but we don’t worship her. We pay her respects for bearing and giving birth to our God. Much like you do
