Here are the very words of Ebb Tide - a resolute Roman Catholic (posted on 10/3/2025, 12:21:19 AM): "See how the prots always gang up to attack Mary as the Mother of Jesus Christ, the Son of God?"

Prots aren't the ones posting all the Mary threads going outside Scripture by touting her as something she isn't.

Pointing out the Catholic errors is not *ganging up to attack Mary.*

The Holy Spirit saw fit to identify her as *mother of Jesus*. Catholics think what the Holy Spirit choose to use isn't good enough so they assigned a new identifier to her.

It is the height of arrogance to think to improve on the work of God when He inspired Scripture, all their rationalization for such action aside. There's simply no justification in the world for telling people God dropped the ball when He gave us His God breathed, Holy Spirit inspired word.

the Holy Spirit wrote all of Luke 1:

Elizabeth says:
“Mother of my Lord” (Luke 1:43)
Greek: ἡ μήτηρ τοῦ κυρίου μου

The same Greek word κύριος replaces the sacred Name YHWH 6,500+ times

Every Jew in the room heard “Mother of Yahweh.”

Jesus is 100 % God
- John 1:1 “the Word was God”
- John 20:28 Thomas: “My Lord and my God”

Mary is a created being and the bearer i.e. mother (mother is NOT creator) of the whole Person, not a half-person.
- She didn’t give birth to a human nature and then Jesus “took on” the divine one.
