Sure Mary loved, no one is questioning that but not a love equal to that of Gods.
Both mothers and God have unconditional love. I disagree.

I believe with all my heart, soul, mind, and strength that, in order, God, Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, and the Virgin Mary are.
What do you think?

UnrealZA and everybody else, who is the most loving and powerful female in the Universe? I still equate love with power.

The Gnostic Church
"We were thrown to the lions in the circuses of Rome, and we celebrated our rituals in the catacombs. We were burnt alive in the flames of the Roman Catholic inquisition. We accompanied Jesus Christ in the Holy Land. We were the mystical Essenes of Palastine; we are not improvising opportunist doctrines. We were hidden during twenty centuries and we are now returning once again to the street carrying on our shoulders the old, rough and heavy cross.
Paul took our doctrine to Rome and he was a Nazarene Gnostic.
Christ taught our doctrine in secrecy to the seventy disciples.
The Sethani, Peratae, Carpocratians, Nazarenes and Essenses are Gnostic. The Egyptian and Aztec Mysteries, the Mysteries of Rome, Troy, Carthage, of Eleusis, India, of the Druids, Pythagoreans, Kambirs, of Mithra and Persia, etc. are in their entirety that which we call Gnosis or Gnosticism.
We now once again open the ancient Gnostic Sanctuaries which were closed upon the arrival of the dark age.
We are now opening the authentic Initiatic Colleges. - Excerpted from The Greater Mysteries by Samael Aun Weor."
...We are not members of the Roman Catholic Church. This church only follows the path of the Monk. We follow all four paths. We have the path of the Monk in our Gnostic religion with its Patriarch, Archbishops, Bishops and Priests. That is why we do not belong to the Church of Rome.
We are not against any religion, school or sect either. Many priests of the Roman Church have come to our ranks. People from all organizations have become affiliated with our Gnostic Movement.
Our Gnostic Church is one of the most complete ones. On the path of the Fakir, we learn to live with rectitude. On the path of the Monk, we develop emotion. On the path of the Yogi, we practice esoteric exercises that activate the latent occult powers of man. On the path of the balanced man, we work with Alchemy and with Kabbalah, and we struggle disintegrating the "I."
Our Gnostic Church is the Transcendent Church. This church is found in the Superior Worlds.
We also have many temples in the physical world. In addition, we have opened thousands of Gnostic Lumisials where Holy Rituals are celebrated and the Secret Doctrine of the Beloved Saviour of the world is studied. We must not forget that our Gnostic Movement has both school and religion.
It has already been decisively confirmed that Jesus the Christ was Gnostic. The Saviour of the World was an active member of the cast of Essenes, mystics who never cut their hair or their beards.
The Gnostic Church is the authentic Primitive Christian Church whose first Pope was the Gnostic Initiate called Peter. Paul of Tarsus belonged to that church. He was a Nazarene. The Nazarenes were another Gnostic sect.
The Primitive Christian Church was the true main esoteric trunk from which many other Neo-Christian sects sprung forth, such as: Roman Catholicism, Protestantism, Adventism, the Armenian Church, etc.
Frankly, we have made the resolution to make the root of Christianity, Gnosticism, publicly known. This is the Primitive Christian Church. The Patriarch Basilides belonged to the Gnostic church. He was the celebrated alchemist who left a seven page book of lead, which, according to Master Krumm Heller, is preserved in the Kiercher Museum of the Vatican. This book cannot be understood by archaeologists because it is a book of occult science. Basilides was a disciple of Saint Matthias.
Roman Catholicism of today is not true Catholicism. Legitimate, authentic, Catholicism is the Primitive Christian Catholic Gnostic one. The current Roman Sect is only a deviation of Primitive Gnostic Catholicism. Frankly, this is the basic reason why we have completely distanced ourselves from the Roman Sect.
Saints such as: Saturninus of Antioch, the celebrated Kabbalist, belonged to the Primitive Christian Catholic Gnostic Church; Simon the Magician, who unfortunately deviated; Carpocrates, who founded several Gnostic convents in Spain; Marcion of Ponto, Saint Thomas, Saint Valentine; the Great Master of Major Mysteries called Saint Augustine; Tertullian; Saint Ambrose; Irenaeus; Hippolytus; Epiphanius; Clement of Alexandria; Mark, the Great Gnostic who took care of the Holy Gnostic Unction and left us the extraordinary teachings about the path of sexual forces through the twelve zodiacal doors of the human organism. Also Cerdon, Empedocles, Saint Geronimo and many other saints were members of the Primitive Christian Catholic Gnostic Church from which the current Roman sect deviated.

Humans may express unconditional love only to a degree. A humans love is not Holy. My mother loves me as I love my children. I would die for them but again my love can never be Perfect, Pure and Holy as Gods.
How to Sacrifice for Others
John.13: 34-35: " A new commandment I give unto you, That you love one another; as I have loved you (Cognizant Love), that you also love one another.
"By this shall all men know that you are my disciples, if you have love one to another."
John.14:15-17: "If you love me, keep my commandments. (Cognizant Love)
"And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;
"Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you."
John.14: 21: "He that has my commandments, and keeps them, he it is the one who loves me: and he that loves me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. "(Cognizant Love)
John.15: 10: "If you keep my commandments, you shall abide in my love (Cognizant Love); even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love."
Love is the Law but Cognizant Love!
spencerjohnstone, how do you define "mother nature"? Is she the wife of God? Is she equivalent to, partly equivalent to, or not at all equivalent to the Immaculate and Virgin Mary?

spencerjohnstone, even though I do not agree that "mother nature" is one of the 4 most powerful beings in the Universe, I cannot disagree that there are many feminine touches to the Universe. Many on ATS feel there is no femininity anywhere. Personally, I believe femininity is partly everywhere. For me, it is not "mother nature", but the Virgin Mary, as she has touched my life in many ways. Recitation of the "Hail Mary" prayer has helped improve my life in many ways. Devotion to the "Rosary" has helped my life in greater ways.
God Bless You!!!
