There is also lacking any reference to the title, "Mother of God", in the NT when referring to Mary.

Mary is the mother of God with us.

Luke 1, for those he that hath ears to hear

But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost. And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins. Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

She is the mother of Jesus whose name is also Emmanuel which means God is with us. Jesus is a separate person from God in this reference.

You're twisting the text to find something not there.

Mary, nor any other NT writer uses the term, mother of God.
