How about you acknowledge her role in salvation history by calling Mary the Mother of God.

Nope. Calling her *the mother of GOD* is a man-made invention.

The Holy Spirit calls her *the mother of JESUS.

YOU tell Him he's wrong. I'm not going there.

In Scripture, the Holy Spirit calls her *mother of Jesus*.

John 2:1 On the third day there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there.

John 2:3 When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus said to him, “They have no wine.”

Acts 1:14 All these with one accord were devoting themselves to prayer, together with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and his brothers.

Scripture is clear in calling her *mother of Jesus* not *mother of God*. *mother of God* is not found anywhere in the Bible.

Nowhere in Scripture is Jesus called God. Through many passages we come to understand that He is indeed God, but nowhere does Scripture call Jesus, God.
