I understand your argument, and so did the Church when Arius and Nestor were around. It was Nestor who said she was Christotokos (the bearer of the Savior).

But that is incomplete and false. Mary carried Incarnate God the Word in her womb and gave birth to the Incarnate God the Word ad named Him Jesus. Nevertheless, He was still the same God the Word, Who was born of Vrigin Mary.

Calling her the Mother of God does not say that she gave God the Word a beginning. It merely reflects accurately Bibilical teaching that she carried Him in her womb and bore Him after nine months. Saying she gave birth to Man Jesus is to diminish, indeed deny, His divinity, as Nestor did.

To say "Mary gave birth to Jesus" is not to deny His divinity.

That's pure, unadulterated silliness.

It makes the bible guilty of nestorianism.

People are just playing "gotcha" with the imprecision of the general word "God" in a trinitarian system.

It's not helpful at all. There is nothing wrong with specificity in one's writing.
