You think, then what's your opinion on John 1:14, that flesh was the same flesh even at 3 days in womb.


And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth

The verse is a reference to Jesus. What was your question exactly?

Let me get this straight, so you think full of grace is only a reference to Mary not about Jesus?

LoL. Yes, I think He did. But the expression isn't used in reference to Jesus. It's used in reference to Mary, is it not?

Clearly John 1:14  is a expression that refers to Jesus as Full Of Grace does it not?

No, I think you're confusing things. I'm saying the expression "full of grace" is clearly not used in reference to Mary, at least not in the Greek New Testament anyway. I was saying the exacting translation of Luke 1:28 would be "endowed with grace," which is a different thing, and does not carry nearly the same weight of meaning.

You mean this?

And I would add that the phrase "full of grace" in reference to Mary is a bit unscriptural. Was she endowed with an amazing form of grace in being chosen to bear the Christ-child? Yes, but the expression "full of grace" more technically refers to someone upon whom the Holy Spirit has descended in great power and fullness, and that is something entirely different.

I was referring to the expression in Luke 1:28, which mentions how Mary was endowed with grace.

lol ok my friend lets just leave it be, but on what you mentioned in Luke 1:28 is only found in 3 or 4 bible translations. I posted the 25 or so bible translations and we can see which ones  have added that, and quite frankly they should have left it alone.
