In the New Testament God came to see His world with Himself in the flesh. The world did not welcome Him and instead crucified Him. Brothers, I'm not religious. Don't you think God visited us....and we shooed Him away during the Visitation? Failing that, He sent Mary as His messenger to the world that He loved so much?
Not for my brothers who don't agree. Please mum is the word.

"To as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His Name. These were born not by natural descent, nor by fleshly impulse, nor by the will of a man, but they are born of God. " (John 1:12-13)
I have received Him. I have been born of God. I am a child of God through faith in Jesus Christ.
I have done what Mary did, saying to the invitation of God: "Be it done unto me according unto Your word" (Luke 1:38)
Now I also through the power of the Holy Spirit who abides in me aspire to follow Mary's advice:
"Whatever He says to you - do it!" (John 2:5)
Therefore I too have become His kinsman, as He Himself said:
"Who are my mother and my brothers?" He asked.
Then He looked at those seated in a circle around Him and said, "Here are my mother and my brothers! Whoever does God's will is my brother and sister and mother."
Mark 3:33-35

He said himself that He came to be rejected. It was necesary for the work of salvation to be accomplished and was fortold by the prophets. If He had come expecting acceptance and recieved rejections, going away wounded He would not be much of a God. If you truelly are a brother in Christ I would encourage you to search the scriptures on this subject, speak to a pastor that truelly preaches the bible, and I'll be praying for your understanding on these things.

Mary was never a messenger, she was just the mother of Jesus, yes she was chosen by God, but she is in heaven now and I am sure she does not care what is happening here

I believe in the new testament it states that there will be no more prophets. All that needed to be said and/or conveyed are in the two books of the bible. So that would effectively discount any claim of post biblical prophets.
Hope I could Help

he sent MARY?
A sinner? A woman? nope
He came and died for mary as much as you
Mary was a vile sinner whose righteousness was as filthy rags
Isaiah 64:6
But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
mary is no better than hitler. they both are guilty before God for their sin
both deserve hell and Jesus paid the way for both
I think Mary accepted and she is worshiping Jesus. She is not mediating for us. It would be against gods word to have a woman do that

Mary was never sent to do anything except give birth to the Christ child, and actually she wasn't sent, she was born like any mortal.
