How does this jive with God being the alpha and omega?

And are we just playing a word game here?

What would the implications on salvation be in light of Mary being the mother of God? or any point/topic relating to a Christian.

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." [ John 1:1]

Salvation is no game to me.

The implications go to the heart of Christian belief. To be a Christian, one must believe that Jesus was 100% God. Since Our Lady the Blessed Virgin Mary is the mother of Jesus, then one must necessarily believe that the Blessed Virgin Mary is the Mother of God. To deny that Our Lady is the Mother of God is to deny that Jesus is God, and to deny that Jesus is God is to damn oneself to Hell.
