Actually, no, it does not slip the mind of all members of Christ's One Holy Apostolic and Catholic Church. We always know and knew and will know that Mary is the Mother of God, Jesus Christ. It is in the Nicene Creed "For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven, was incarnate of the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary and became truly human. "

She was the Theotokos which translates as "God-bearer" or "the one who gives birth to God" as it's purest direct translation.

She was the Theotokos which translates as "God-bearer" or "the one who gives birth to God" as it's purest direct translation.

I think the main intent on the "Mother of God" phrase was to show the nature of Jesus (God and Man) and not to describe mary's position.

Unfortunately, much error has evolved from this and from non biblical contemplation on the titles implications for Mary: an unintended consequence.

Some heresies never go away. Either you believe Jesus is God and that the Blessed Virgin gave birth to Him, or you don’t.
