There is a movement of Mary worship that tried to get Mary included with the Trinity in a mysterious way represented by that language. Pope John Paul II shot it down for good during his reign. It attemps to join Mary with Jesus in his role as Redeemer, giving her an innate role in our redemption as a partner in Christ's redeeming work.

Mary lent her flesh to God for the purpose of our redemption, so the question is: Did Mary willingly cooperate with God making it possible for Jesus to become a man, and subsequently redeem mankind?

If yes, than Mary can indeed be referred to as co-redemptrix, because she COoperated in Jesus' work of REDEMPTION. COREDEMPTRIX.

If no, than explain where Jesus got his flesh body.

The scandal lies in the multitudes of Christians who can't seem to understand that God prefers to include us in his plans, because when we manage to perform well, it's always due to his grace, and our good work does nothing more than glorify him who created us.

The Blessed Virgin Mary has always served only to glorify God, and to counsel others to "do whatever Jesus tells you.".

Anyone who thinks that denying Mary's God ordained role in the redemptive work of her divine son is in some way giving greater glory to God, just doesn't get it.

It means she cooperated by consenting to be the mother of our Lord.
