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

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

If Mary is the mother of Jesus, and if Jesus is God, then Mary is the Mother of God.I must again respectfully disagree.

God is a spiritual being, without beginning and without end. For God to have a "mother" would imply that the mother existed before God, which is clearly not Biblical.

Mary is most definitely the physical mother of the physical man Jesus, but is most definitely NOT the mother of His spiritual nature.
