The Holy Spirit called her “mother of Jesus”. Catholics call her “mother of God”. I for don’t have to wonder who is more accurate.

You think Mary was not the Mother of God? Oh, that’s right. You’re the expert on how folks should pray and what Christianity is and how you want to make it divisive.

We’ve had a conversation about this before; I do not recall your answer.

In John 1 we are told that the Word was God, was made flesh, was the only begotten of the Father, was Jesus.

In Luke 1 we are told that the angel of the Lord Gabriel told Mary that she would conceive and bring forth a son that she is to call Jesus, and that holy thing which shall be born of her shall be called the Son of God.

So how is it that Mary is not the Mother of God incarnate?

That means the same thing... unless you do not think Jesus is God.
