You are confused. It wasn’t by her own power that she was preserved from original sin. (You know what we mean by “original sin”, right?). Are you saying God doesn’t have the power to preserve anyone from original sin? She receives honor higher than the other saints, but lower than the Trinity, as well she should.

God is sovereign and He changes not. Since original sin, we were born in sin. There is nothing in the Scripture to suggest she was without sin. It would have been plainly said and taught if that were so. She deserves no more or no less than anyone saved by the Grace of God.

So why doesn't God preserve all of us from original sin then? Think of how much grief and pain and suffering could be avoided in the world by such a course of action.
