ummm, since the God of Israel exists in the New Testament LOOOOOOONNNNNNGGGG before Mary, Mary is not the "mother of God" ... she was the chosen Earthly vessel by which Jesus Christ came to Earth ... the Scripture is explicitly clear ...

So it is on own your authority that Nestorian was correct. How then do you know that the rightly inspired books are in the New Testament if you reject the Authority of Rome since it was Rome who compiled and approved of the NT?

The Christians I know believe in the Trinity.
That is, God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
It is a "mystery" which we're not meant to be able to
explain in a logical sense, but that we accept on faith.
And with that we believe in "God the Son", and that Mary
is His Mother.
The Mother of God the Son!

Unless you deny the divinity of Jesus Christ you can not logically deny that Mary is indeed the Mother of God. Do you believe in the Trinity. Is Christ God or isn't He?

It certainly is.

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

John 20:28 "Thomas answered, and said to him: My Lord, and my God."

Colossians 2:9 "For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead corporeally;"
