Don’t know when this was published but please read the first sentence again…..”Jesus was absolutely present at the death of her Son, Jesus as Matthew records,” Believe it should be “Mary was absolutely present at the death of her Son, Jesus….”
Thank you Marion. More proof that only the Word of God is perfect. It has been corrected, That was kind of you to point that out and we thank you.
I want yours article and more information about yours writing
Very well said
very big lie, there was never a time in the history i know in catholic that it is speculated that Jesus appeared to Mary first. That is not catholic belief. Do not mislead people. we know and proclaim that Mary Magdalene saw Jesus first after resurrection. because the Church keeps quiet does not mean it should be lied against always.
I have never also heard that Jesus appeared first to his mother in the catholic teachings. As a catholic faithful, we always, we know that Jesus first appeared to Mary Magdalen. Let us not drag the catholic church into arguments which do not truth.
What about Acts 1:14, which was after our Lord’s resurrection?
Great insight. You are right. Thank you so much Deborah.
I think it’s very interesting what happened to mother Mary. I’m very curious to know the rest
I agree, as some groups put in a class along. I believe was a person , God used to bring the Messiah, nothing more.
Thank you Mr. Atwood.
Hi, Jack,
As a former employee of Prison Fellowship (1978-81), I am blessed to learn of your work.
I write now to tell you about a biblical curiosity. Have you ever compared I Corinthians 15:5 with Luke 24:34? This has led some (see Brown, Driver and Briggs, ICC on 1 Corinthians 15:5, page 335) to believe that Jesus appeared to Peter before anyone else.
In any case it provided a plausible novelesque base for my book, “The Justus Scrolls.”
Blessings to you,

There is a book called thiaoouba prophecy authored by a man who claim that he was “abducted” by high intelligence beings from another planet, and had learned lot of secrets of the world from them
From his book, I understood that Jesus and the person who is crucified are not the same person. Hence that could explain why the crucified person says ‘Woman, behold, your son!’ …cos that person was not really the Jesus that Mary had given birth to. That Jesus had already gone oversea (to Indian,china, japan…). That is why people wonder why Jesus tomb stone is in Japan.
But again I not claiming that this book is definitely real, but good to be aware of another point of view.
Hello Cybess. Jesus said “Woman behold you son” (John 19:27) “Then he said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother!” And from that hour the disciple took her to his own home” (John 19:28), so this author has taken the text out of context to create a pretext,and a false one at that. He is 100% wrong on this. I would put this book in the fire and destroy it as this man’s false teaching might infect others or you. What heresy this teaches…we know from history and the Bible that this book cannot possibly be right, and if we’ve already found one blatant error is his book, then why think about believing any of the rest of it. Remember, Satan has his own sinister ministers who try to decieve and mislead.
Actually that’s not from a guy from another world or from a guy abducted lol that’s what muslims believe, I know because I was raised Muslim and my dad use to tell me that , I am a Christian now , don’t be deceived by lies
Jesus refers to his mother as “woman” after she speaks to him at the wedding feast at Cana. Therefore, it is no incorrect to say that his status as her Savior was revealed or realized at the crucifixion. Further evidence of this can be seen as Mary speaks to Elizabeth at the visitation; Catholics call this speech the Magnificat. Mary’s words glorify the Lord and acknowledge Christ as the Savior. In addition, Elizabeth also greets Mary as the mother of my Lord. At no time was there any confusion as to who Christ was or that his relationship with Mary changes at the cross. In fact, Catholics believe Christ’s words “behold your mother” is Christ bequeathing Mary to the world as an intercessor and saintly model of behavior.
Mary needs salvation just as much as anyone. Since she was not sinless, she needs the Savior. She is no different than any human. Jesus saved her too and she needed to confess her sins to be cleansed too. No human alive or that has ever been born of a human father needs Christ to save them. Mary is no exception. A good study Bible will help you see your error. John was to take care of her after Jesus’ death and the Scripture says John took her home and cared for her as his own mother. You are very confused. Mary like all of us, sinned (all have sinned!) and needed saving. Please read this about Mary, Jesus’ mother. https://www.whatchristianswanttoknow.com/the-motherhood-of-mary-of-nazareth/
