Where does Scripture teach that it is forbidden to invent new titles for anyone?
It is not “unfaithful to Scripture” to call Mary “the mother of God,” because Scripture teaches that:
Mary is the mother of Jesus.
Jesus is God (i.e., the Word).
Anything that is logically REQUIRED by what is in Scripture is taught by the Scripture.
Therefore, Scripture TEACHES that Mary is the mother of God.
Scripture TEACHES that Mary is the mother of God even though Scripture does not use “mother of God” as a title for Mary.
Changing the Word of God is being unfaithful to it.
It is also making a statement that the work of the Holy Spirit was not accurate or adequate and therefore needs amending.
That takes a lot of chutzpah.
Arguing from silence is not a wise move. That can make Scripture, God's inerrant Word, nearly worthless.
But wait, Catholicism doesn't really care about Scripture.
Never mind....

Is Mary the Mother of The Holy Spirit?
'cause I'm going to apply the PRINCIPLE to every PROTESTANT only teaching you Catholics rail against!
Therefore, Scripture TEACHES that Mary is the mother of God.
Scripture TEACHES that Mary is the mother of God even though Scripture does not use “mother of God†as a title for Mary.
Why do you know that and we don't???
