“Since the Second Person of the Trinity is God, it is correct to say that Mary is the Mother of God.”

Nah. God never gave her that title FRiend. Yet you are quite insistent on giving it to her.

He blessed Mary by choosing her to bear Messiah. It is quite the blessing. No need to make her into more than He did.

Best.

Thank you for finally admitting that God made Mary the Mother of God.

“And who am I that the MOTHER OF MY LORD should come to me,” said St. Elizabeth to Mary, when Mary was about a week pregnant.

Now, this comes straight out of the gospel of St. Luke. Who wrote the gospel of St. Luke? GOD! Correct?

So St. Luke reports that Elizabeth—herself speaking under the influence of the Holy Spirit, because her BABY leapt in her womb when she heard Mary’s voice—called Mary “the mother of my Lord.”

And WHO is this “Lord”? GOD! Correct?

So the gospel calls Mary the “mother of [the] Lord,” which is EXACTLY equivalent to “Mother of God.”

Are you going to continue to contradict the word of God, the gospel, the Scriptures, by refusing to call Mary “the mother of God”?
