MARY MAGDALENE: HARLOT OR APOSTLE?

For centuries, many people have called Mary Magdalene a prostitute.

But here’s the uncomfortable truth:

The Bible never actually says she was one.

So how did one of Jesus’ most devoted followers become known as history’s most famous “fallen woman”?

Mary Magdalene was present during some of the most important moments in Christianity:

She witnessed the crucifixion.

She saw where Jesus was buried.

She was among the first to discover the empty tomb.

Most remarkably, she was the first person recorded to see the risen Christ and was sent to tell the disciples.

That’s why some early Christians called her “the Apostle to the Apostles.”

Yet over time, her identity became merged with other women mentioned in the Gospels, creating a reputation the Bible itself never clearly gives her.

🤔 So who was Mary Magdalene really?

A repentant harlot?

A misunderstood disciple?

Or one of the most influential witnesses in Christian history?

The debate has lasted for centuries.

What do you think—and why do you think her story has been told so differently over the years?

(Note: Mary Magdalene is traditionally associated with being delivered from seven demons, but Scripture does not identify her as a prostitute.)
