[SMEDLEYBUTLER]

I agree that Mary should be honored as the mother of JESUS..but I do have a problem with calling Mary the 'mother of God' ..

Luke 1:43 "And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me."

[11th Commandment]

This is what everyone is saying, she is the mother of his humanity- his Lordship. Not the Mother of God. This title elevates her to deity. From there, big mistakes happen like “co-redeemer” theology.

[Zipporah]

Luk 1:47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.

If Mary were without sin.. why would she know that she needs a savior?
