Holy Mary, Mother of God,

the bible says...

...Mother of Jesus.

Why does Rome INSIST that it’s followers use this OTHER term that is NOT found in Scripture?


Because Mother of God is accurate. Mother of Jesus is also accurate, but if I head down to the nearest Spanish community, I’ll probably find a hundred women who are the Mother of Jesús. None are the Mother of God.

Again Rome is a City in Italy. If you mean why do Christians who aren’t protestants know Mary is the Mother of God I’d respond.

No; it is not.

There are other parts of 'god' that were NOT born by Mary

Do you want to state otherwise?


Have YOU tried it???


Hail Mary, Mother of JESUS...
Hail Mary, Mother of JESUS...
Hail Mary, Mother of JESUS...

Go ahead; TRY IT!!

I'll bet your head will NOT spin around!

Mother of God is NOT accurate because GOD did not have a mother or beginning.

Jesus was born here on earth, therefore Mary is the mother of Jesus.

The Holy Spirit chose to use the term *mother of Jesus*. HIS choice, not Protestants choice. The Catholic church is the one who thought the work of the Holy Spirit was wanting and it it on itself to change it.

That takes a lot of chutzpah to sit in judgment of God and tell Him He’s wrong or could have done a better job.
