Your comment: “GOD does not have a mother.”

So are you committing heresy by saying that Jesus is not divine and human?

Jesus has two natures - divine and human and The Blessed Mother is the Mother of Jesus - Truly man and Truly God with both natures. Jesus divine nature is eternal and has no beginning. Mary is the Mother of God precisely because Jesus Christ, her Son, is God. And when Mary gave birth, she did not give birth to a nature, or even two natures; she gave birth to one, divine person.

So you do not believe the Bible: “And why is this granted me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?” Luke 1;43

So you continue to deny Christ a Blessed Mother that was the ark and the womb that fed and protected God inside her and must be influenced by Satan?

Mary is the mother of Jesus, as the Holy Spirit saw fit to identify her as.

The phrase *mother of God* is found nowhere in Scripture but is strictly a Catholic fabrication.

Catholicism has a habit of deciding that it can improve on divinely inspired, God breathed Scripture. It can’t.

The phrase *mother of God* says something different than *mother of Jesus*. They do not say the same thing and they do not mean the same thing.

The long convoluted explanation Catholics have to engage in to justify their corrupting the word of God says enough.

Also, the phrase, *mother of Jesus* was always used in regard o identifying which Mary in the Bible was being referred to. It was never about the nature of Jesus.

If Mary gave birth to one divine person, as you claim, then she herself must have been divinity to be able to pass that nature on.

Jesus is God with us.

Mary is mother of Jesus, God with us, not mother of God, period.

Mary is not the ark and there’s not a single thing in Scripture that even alludes to it. It’s just more Catholic wishful thinking and misapplying Scripture to fit their already predetermined doctrine.

Luke 1:43 uses the word for Lord, which is Kyrios, not the word for God, which is Theos.

Another fail on the part of the Catholic religion to justify its deification of Mary.

Mary was more of Jesus’ incubator than an ark.

All she did was gestate Him for 9 months because she had the right pedigree.

At least you start your strawman with a question; even though it is the same as the, "Have you stopped beating your wife?" one.

Nothing between my soul and the Saviour,   (Except Mary)
Naught of this world's delusive dream;         (Except her 15 promises)
I have renounced all sinful pleasure;             (Except playing bingo)
Jesus is mine, there's nothing between.         (Except Saints that help me)
  
 
This version just MUST be in Catholic hymnals.
