I love the Mother of God!

I would also contend that Mary is not simplt "Mother of God" but Mother of God incarnate. Because God created Mary, Mary cannot create God, However like in my other post I contend that God sfter Adam and Eve would not allow any life on Earth to be made exept by a mother so God followed his own rules.

Well..yes, she's Mother of GOD THE SON, God the Father, has no mother. God the Holy Spirit, has no mother.

GOD THE SON, became MAN in the person of JESUS CHRIST, and his mother is Mary.

Jesus Christ is God, therefore Mary is the Mother of God.

The title "Mother of God" is confusing to many, especially to Protestants and those who reject the Holy Trinity.

No mother creates their offspring. All people other than the person's of the Holy Trinity, are created by God.

"Mother of God" is a christlogical title. It is about who Jesus is, not who Mary is. It is purely in defence of the Incarnation. Jesus is human because He is the offspring of a human, His mother Mary. But because He is also divine, it means His mother is the mother of God, otherwise you divide His person and run into all kinds of heresies.

I love the Theotokos. I have learned to respect her and venerate what she does us and her role with Christ.

Does anyone else feel the same?

Do you have a verse what her role WAS ?/ Just asking ??

It was the HOLY SPIRIT that did the work of her pregnancy !!

Gen 3:15 I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head, and thou shalt lie in wait for her heel.

John 2:4 And Jesus saith to her: Woman, what is that to me and to thee? My hour is not yet come.

I can surly agree with that statement. It's not that she created him, she entered the world through her. From my understanding, it's theonly way a human can enter the Earth.

"Mother of God" is a christlogical title. It is about who Jesus is, not who Mary is. It is purely in defence of the Incarnation. Jesus is human because He is the offspring of a human, His mother Mary.
