If she did not need her Son as a Saviour, why did she call him that?

Like I said...I am not a theologial student.

I was just trying to parse things out logically.

I just went back and pulled out my St. James.

I think it goes back to the Catholic interpretation of the Trinity.

I think, in her mind, "God, the Father" was the Saviour for bringing her "God, the Son." I think that's the case, because the Son had not yet lived out his destiny.

I've never been able to wrap my mind around who "God, the Holy Spirit" is.

It's the age-old dilemma. Who is "I am Who am"?

Far greater minds than mine have thought about this.
