According to scripture, Mary the mother of Jesus and his brothers were coming to get him because they thought he was out of his mind. Does this make you think differently about Mary?
If you need proof, read Mark 3 verse 21.

your interpretation of Mark 3 verse 21 is very incorrect. What you said has nothing to do with Mary. There were a lot of people who did not believe in Jesus, even among his "RELATIVES" But never Mary. Remember that Jesus could not even performed miracles even in his own land, not because He wouldn't have any power but because the lack of faith of the people. there were a lot of people who refused to see Jesus like the Messiah. They only could see him like "The Son of Mary" And many other thought He was "Out of his mind" But never his Mother.

Suggest you read that verse again. It refers to friends not
Mother or siblings. Mary couldn't have thought He was crazy
because you don't ask crazy people to do miracles at weddings.
John 2:3 And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine.
John 4:46 So Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Capernaum.
I Corinthians 13;8a, Love never fails!!!!!
As for friends, I have one or two or think I'm a bit titched in
the head, but as far as that goes, I'm living large, and they're
just living. Thank-you Jesus. JESUS IS LORD!!!!!

What Jesus was doing, performing miracles/healing/ridding people of demons, was so profound and so far outside of what they knew and understood, they were concerned about him. I don't believe Mary thought her Son was crazy. But she did fear for his safety. Mary had an amazing life, being the mother of our LORD. I think it's safe to say she knew something very bad was going to happen and she wished with all her mother's heart that she could prevent it. You need to read the verse in context.

God is omniscient, and since Jesus is God he knew exactly what his mother, brothers, apostles, pharisees, etc thought of him. After he was resurrected though his mother, brothers, the apostles, and some of the pharisees (namely Paul) became ardent believers. The apostles and Paul ended up being martyred for believing in who Jesus was and is.
I don't really have any opinion of Mary either way. She was a mortal human being and a sinner just like all of us, the Catholic Church may give her superior status but she needed her sins forgiven by God and her trust put in Jesus just like you, me, and everyone else.

In which way. If you mean metally insane then you are taking it completely out of contex. They didnt think that because they knew He was the Savior. They thought that because He was doing something they wouldnt. For instance if you wanted to go skydiving and if I wouldnt do that then I would say your crazy.

Mark 3:21 And even as his acquaintances heard of it, they went out to position carry on him: for they suggested, he's beside himself. Mark 3:31 There got here then his brethren and his mom, and, status devoid of, despatched unto him, calling him. It obviously suggested acquaintances, not kin. What Jesus did with all of his miracles were staggering and human beings had in no way considered such miracles before. It changed into the scribes who suggested he had the devil in him. Mark 3:22 And the scribes which got here down from Jerusalem suggested, He hath Beelzebub, and by using the prince of the devils casteth he out devils. you're doing precisely what God suggested now to not do even as it includes examining his be conscious. 2 Peter a million:20 understanding this universal, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any deepest interpretation. you're literally not allowing the Holy Ghost to steer you by it. 2 Peter a million:21 For the prophecy got here not in old time by using the choose of guy: yet holy adult men of God spake as they were moved by using the Holy Ghost. Mary in no way theory Jesus changed into insane or loopy. you're incorrect. Mary knew what her son changed into in a position to do and why. She knew that when she had him turn water into wine at a wedding ceremony. John 2:3-5 And even as they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, they don't have any wine. 4 Jesus saith unto her, woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour isn't yet come. 5 His mom saith unto the servants, in any respect he saith unto you, do it. Mary wouldn't have requested Jesus to reveal the water into wine if she although he changed into insane. in case you don't recognize what God's be conscious is telling you, do not' wager at it. do not upload or get rid of from God's be conscious because he warns us adversarial to that.. Revelation 22:18-19 For I testify unto each guy that heareth the words of the prophecy of this e book, If any guy shall upload unto those issues, God shall upload unto him the plagues that are written in this e book: 19 And if any guy shall get rid of from the words of the e book of this prophecy, God shall get rid of his area out of the e book of existence, and out of the holy city, and from the flaws that are written in this e book. Pray before you study God's be conscious and ask the HOLY GHOST to steer you properly by it.
