“Mother” means a way to control the narrative.

I fail to understand why it’s seems to be SO hard for any of our FR Catholics to ADMIT that the phrase “Mother of GOD” is NOT found in the bible.

Sorry if that's what you have been waiting for allow me to state the phrase 'Mother of God' is not in the bible. But I think if stating that phrase would be the subject of any disbelief, we would have included that phrase in the bible.

No Catholic claims that the title “Mother of God” is present in Scripture.

What Catholics say is that the truth that Mary is the Mother of God is taught in Scripture.

Scripture teaches that Mary is the Mother of Jesus.

Scripture teaches that Jesus is the Word (God) made Flesh.

Scripture teaches, therefore, that Mary is the Mother of God.

Scripture also tells us that Elizabeth, inspired by the Holy Spirit, called Mary “the mother of my Lord.” I.e., Elizabeth, inspired by the Holy Spirit, called Mary the mother of God.

How can Protestants read those crystal-clear assertions in the gospels that Mary is the mother of God, and yet obstinately deny that Scripture teaches that Mary is the mother of God?
