Carlos,
Jesus also said:
Why do you call me good, God alone is good. (Luke 18:19)
- Does that mean He isn't God?
Sometimes Jesus says something that can be taken to the wrong way if not fully understood in context. So it is with this Scripture passage.
Jesus was not minimizing
His mother . . . He is merely pointing out that faith, is more important than flesh and blood, which is what the Judaizers were hung up on. His mother Mary had an abundance of faith as one who believed what the Lord said would be fulfilled. (Luke 1:45)
Peace,
Bob Kirby
