Is St. Mary a Role in Crushing the Head of the Sword?
Colby: Would it be a problem theologically to say that St. Mary also plays a role in crushing the head of the serpent? I've done a deep study on that day issue in the fathers. You find fathers as early as the great doctor of the church, St. Ephraim and many others in saying that Mary also played a role by virtue of being the mother of the Messiah. And so Mary is simply the principal participant in the redemptive mission of Christ. We are lesser participants because the intensity or the participation in grace that you and I have is less than hers.
