Does God have a Mother?

No. He wasn't 100% human until he was in her womb (presumably, when he was concieved).

For the record, I answered that question verbatim several pages ago. You either missed it, or chose to ignore it. I'm at a loss as to why you would do either, since the question appears to be of such a priority to you.

It's a shame, however, that you will expect answers to your questions (and miss them), but you will refuse to answer other peoples' questions.

 

NO. The Word BECAME flesh. Why is this so hard to accept?

 

I am not. I am saying very clearly and plainly that Hebrews 7:3 does not refer to Jesus. How one makes the jump from scriptural context to an accusation of denying Jesus' divinity is perplexing, not to mention pharasaical on the part of the accuser. If you need some clarity on pointing fingers, look in the mirror.

No, I'm comprehending the difference between his human nature and divine nature. I am not separating them.

 

No. The Word BECAME flesh. The Word didn't "fill" or "join" or "combine with" or "put on" flesh.

 

(Of course, Eliyahu does not see his own hypocrisy of Nestorian behavior, since he has no problem separating Jesus' natures when it comes to Mary being his mother.)

 

It does not. It refers to one who is "like" the Son of God: "like the Son of God he (Melchizedek) remains a priest forever."

What do you mean, "how can you say so without dividing humanity and divinity?". I said it plainly without dividing his humanity and divinity.

 

Because he became flesh. What does "became" mean?

Yes, that is my belief. The Word became flesh. Became. Simple.

 

Heb.7:3 refers to a Christophany or which there are a few in the Old Testament. We also find the Lord communing with Abraham before the two angels went and destroyed Sodom, for example.

John 4:24 clearly says:

John 4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

A Spirit has no flesh. Christ was referring to God, the triune Godhead. He wasn't redefining God. A Spirit has no flesh.

The Word became flesh and dwelt among us. However, the Word was God, and the Word was in the beginning. He also created all things. He became flesh. God, being Spirit, took upon himself flesh. He was not "in flesh" before this time, except in occasional temporary periods of time when he chose to appear in flesh (in theophanies) to certain individuals in Old Testament times. Tbese are exceptiona, not the norm.

God is a Spirit; they that worship him must worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
Now, Jesus having lived, died, buried, and arisen from the dead; sits at the right hand of the throne of God. He retains his resurrected body. We shall be like him in this respect when the resurrection takes place. Before he came into this world as an infant he never had a body. God is spirit.

No. It's not contradictory. Others here appear to comprehend it just fine. Understand it fully? Perhaps we can't do that until we die.

I think I've explained it adequately already. I'd just be repeating myself.

Yes. That's what scripture appears to imply.

 

That's not the issue. The verse in Hebrews isn't talking about the Son of God. It's talking about somone who is like the Son of God in one aspect.

It's clear that you lack comprehension of understanding scripture (the aforementioned Hebrews). So it comes as no surprise that you lack comprehension of how it is permissible to refer to Mary as the Mother of God the Son.

 

Because the Word became flesh. What does became mean to you?

Because his humanity was divine. The Word became flesh. The flesh was divine, and she was the mother of the flesh, thus she was mother of the divine.

Look at it this way: how could she NOT be mother of the divine, if the flesh was divine?

 

Was the Father begotten? Was the Holy Spirit crucified, buried, and resurrected?

What does "became" mean to you?

I don't think anyone disagrees with that.
