We cannot discuss meaningfully if you do not address your first comment which I quoted for you. We are born from above...all human believers are born from above as was Mary.
Now I can address this post, but I don't truly know where you stand on the other yet. We are not over-shadowed by Mary...she has no such power. Over-shadowing was power of the Holy Spirit who gave birth to Jesus.
The Genesis 3:15 is speaking of the coming Christ, the enmity between Satan and man...He defeated Satan...this was spoken to Eve as you know...not Mary...and it applies to all mankind.
No no no.... we are not overshadowed by mary.
Normal birth takes place by a man lets just say "overshaddowing" a woman. The woman concieves the child passes through the felopian tubes and comes to rest in the womb then after growing and developing the child passes through the birth canal and is born
Christ too by the over shadowing of the spirit and not man
So when we are born of the spirit. The spirit overshadows our lady we pass through the felopian tube and into the womb here we meet the preborn lord and our faith is in its infancy as the child jesus grows and develops we grow and develop alongside him until we fully reborn into the kingdom of God
I am not saying our lady overshadows us... no its just beautiful imagery of being born of the spirit
