If the Church started to worry what you heretics might think, we’ll never get anything done. Here someone already thinks that Mary gave birth to a lifeless body. Also, it is not true that Mary is only called “mother of Jesus”; in Luke 1:43 she is called “the mother of my Lord”, which is the biblical word for God throughout the Bible.

.
No, that is not correct.

The convention in English Bibles is that when the reference is to YHVH, then it is rendered “LORD,” but Lord is not a reference to God, but simply equivalent to “master” or “leader.”
