Mary needed a Savior , she acknowledged that need
So do we. Mary's salvation was accomplished through the foreseen merits of her Son

That may have been true of the OT saints, but they needed a Savior , a sinless person does not need a Savior

Mat 18:11 For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.

Luk 5:32 I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

Rom 3:10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:

Rom 3:11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.

Rom 3:12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

Here is the problem there is only one truth not many competing truths .

Either Mary was sinless or the scriptures lie .

And the answer is????

a sinless person does not need a Savior

Scripture says that there is no other name by which men are to be saved except that of Christ Jesus.

Ergo, all sons and daughters of Adam, without exception, need a Savior.

"Either Mary was sinless or the scriptures lie ."

Incorrect. We believe Christ saved his mother from sin. This does not contradict Scripture. And of course, there is the following Scripture:

"Hail Mary, Full of Grace, the Lord is with you." (Luke 1:28)

ears_to_hear, how do suppose it is that original sin is transmitted from parent to off-spring? Do you believe that Christ inherited original sin?
