1 | Why do catholic call Mary mother of God. | Amos 1:1 | CROSSMAN | 69499 | ||
Catholics say that Mary was the mother of God and that she is the queen of heaven. You may agree you may not. If someone could show me in the bible, where it say she is the mother of God. We do know that Jesus was known as the Son of God, meaning God being His Father. He was also known as Son of man, which I maybe wrong aplies to mary, being that she was a woMAN or huMAN. Also when we accept Christ in our life,we to recieve His Holy Spirit, But the man Jesus you see is you and me. For example if you have a bottle of red wine and you pour some into a glass and some into a mug is it not the same wine. Just like Jesus we become a temple for the Holy Spirit. |

2 | Why do catholic call Mary mother of God. | Amos 1:1 | Emmaus | 69516 | ||
Crossman, See Luke 1:43. Who is the "Lord" spoken of in this text? Is Jesus God? Is Mary his mother? Jesus is a Divine Person, the second Person of the Trinity, who took on a human nature in additon to his divine nature. But women give birth to persons not natures. Mary is the mother of God, but not his creator, since she is his creature and creation. If you don't like what Luke had to say and don't want to take my word for it, here is what Martin Luther had to say on the subject. "Men have crowded all her glory into a single phrase: The Mother of God. No one can say anything greater of her, though he had as many tongues as there are leaves on the trees." From the Commentary (of Luther)on the Magnificat. ". . . she is rightly called not only the mother of the man, but also the Mother of God. . . . it is certain that Mary is the Mother of the real and true God." Ref: Sermon on John 14. 16: Luther's Works ( St. Louis, ed. Jaroslav, Pelican, Concordia. vol. 24. p. 107 "Christ our Savior was the real and natural fruit of Mary's virginal womb. . . . This was without the cooperation of a man, and she remained a virgin after that." REf: On the Gospel of St. John: Luther's Works, vol. 22. p. 23, ed. Jaroslav Pelican, Concordia, 1957 ". . . she is full of grace, proclaimed to be entirely without sin. . . . God's grace fills her with everything good and makes her devoid of all evil. . . . God is with her, meaning that all she did or left undone is divine and the action of God in her. Moreover, God guarded and protected her from all that might be hurtful to her." Ref: Luther's Works, American edition, vol. 43, p. 40 , ed. H. Lehmann, Fortress, 1968 Commentaries on Luther ". . . in the resolutions of the 95 theses Luther rejects every blasphemy against the Virgin, and thinks that one should ask for pardon for any evil said or thought against her." Ref: Wm. J. Cole, "Was Luther a Devotee of Mary?" in Marian Studies 1970, p. 116: "In Luther's Explanation of the Magnificat in 1521, he begins and ends with an invocation to Mary, which Wright feels compelled to call "surprising"". David F. Wright, Chosen by God: Mary in Evangelical Perspecive (London: Marshall Pickering, 1989, p. 178, Cited from Faith and Reason, Spring 1994, p. 6. "Most interesting of all, perhaps, is the realization that his burial chamber in the Wittenberg church, on whose door he had posted his 95 Theses, was adorned with the 1521 Peter Vischer sculpture of the Coronation of the Virgin, with the inscription containing these lines: "Ad summum Regina thronum defertur in altum: Angelicis praelata choris, cui festus et ipse Filius occurrens Matrem super aethera ponit." Ref: P. Stravinskas in Faith and Reason, Spring, 1994, p. 8: Emmaus |

Quote"See Luke 1:43. Who is the "Lord" spoken of in this text? Is Jesus God? Is Mary his mother? Jesus is a Divine Person, the second Person of the Trinity, who took on a human nature in additon to his divine nature. But women give birth to persons not natures. Mary is the mother of God, but not his creator, since she is his creature and creation." I do believed that mary was the mother of Jesus in his human form but not in His God form, if mary was the mother of God? what is this God created His own mother, did God needs mother? baby Jesus needs mother for the human form that will use (flesh to crussified) and not need mother being God. We know that Jesus Christ being in the form of God was made in the likeness of men, here mary comes in the picture: Php 2:6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: Php 2:7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: If Jesus Christ was born God and mary His mother why Jesus said this to His father: Joh 17:3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. He said that His father, is the only true God, here in this instance He did not consider Himself as God because He is in the human form. God bless, Johnny |
