“Mary isn’t the mother of God. That would make her a god as well.

Since Mary was a human, she could not have birthed God.”

________________________________________________________________

This issue has been discussed in literally thousands of posts on hundreds of threads, most of which I've seen you posting on, and now you come here with this ridiculous misunderstanding?

There was a thread a few months ago with over 10,000 posts on which you were quite active, and I recall this question was exhaustively covered.

Mary is NOT the mother of the Trinity.

Mary IS the Mother of Jesus, Who is the Son of God made man. He has two natures, Divine and human, united in one Person, so it is fitting to call Mary the Mother of God. She is the mother of the Divine Person Jesus. It is obvious that she was not His mother until He was conceived in her womb. He did not have a human nature until that moment. Nobody is arguing the absurdity that she existed eternally.

She DID give birth to God, to the Second Person of the Trinity made man. He is God as much as the Father and the Holy Spirit.

Where have you been during all those hundreds of threads???

2 Corinthians 4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

She gave birth to Jesus, the Second person of the Trinity.

Claiming she is the mother of God gives the false impression that His nature came from her. Jesus divine nature comes from the Father, not Mary.
