Nay.

It is impossible to be neutral in this spiritual war (Luke 11:23; also see 9:50), for neutrality means standing against Him. There are two spiritual forces at work in the world, and we must choose between them. Satan is scattering and destroying, but Jesus Christ is gathering and building. We must make a choice, and if we choose to make no choice, we are really choosing against Him.

Taking sides with Jesus means much more than saying the right things, like the woman who cried, "Blessed is the womb that bore You, and the breasts which nursed You" (Luke 11:27, NKJV). She was certainly sincere, but that was not enough. We take sides with Jesus Christ when we hear His Word and obey it (see Luke 6:46-49; 8:19-21).

Jesus said Yea.

He wanted us to know that more blessed are those who hear the word of God and keep it!

be it done unto me according to His word - let us not here presume as some would have us do accept that Mary did not hear the word of God and keep it - wincam
