Where in the Bible does it say" Mother of God" ?

"And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?" - Luke 1: 43

The emphasis there is the fact that Elizabeth said "mother of my Lord," and when you see "Lord" being used, it can only mean one thing: God.

If Mary is the mother of Jesus, and if Jesus is God, then Mary is the Mother of God.

Where in the Bible does it say that the entirety of Christian belief is contained in the Bible?

And, if the entirety of Christian belief is contained in the Bible, how did the early Christians know what to believe, before the New Testament was written?
