Inquiring Mind said:Yes.
Yes means the God in the sentence of " Mary is the Mother of God" and the God in the sentence of " God the Father is God" are the same, one person God, right ?
Then you are claiming Mary is Mother of God the Father!
If you deny it, you are denying what you are saying!
If you deny it, you are denying Trinity!
If you deny it, you are claiming that God the Father is not God.
3 is the simplication of "Mary is the Mother of GOD THE SON"
You are saying what RC don't say.
I have never heard RC saying Mary is Mother of God the Son.
They all the time said Mary is Mother of God.
Remember again, when people simply say God, it means God the Father.
That is the Mystery of the Trinity!
Now when you encounter the impasse, you just excuse it as a mystery.
MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS ( Rev 17:5)
God the Father
is different from
God the Son
is different from
God the Holy Spirit
Three distinct persons make up the Godhead.
You sound like explaining Trinity as A Monster with three heads because
you lack the other truth that the three Godheads share all things together and exist in the other Godheads commonly, which means Tri-Unity, and therefore Jesus said Father is in Him and He is in Father,
Here are some verses that show the dinstinction:
Mat 12:32 And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come.
Yes, the Role is different, but it doesn't mean that Son of God has Mother, and that God the Father has a Wife.
Normally If a Son has a Mother and a Father, then it means that the Father and Mother are the marital spouse, right ? So, RC insist on Theotokos to imply that Mary is the Wife of God, or Queen of Heaven, right ? Read Jeremiah 44 thru.
How do you call the Relationship between Mary and God the Father?
Your Answer is very important because normally God means God the Father when people simply call Him God.
If you call Mary as Maid-Servant of God the Father, then it means that Mary is the Woman servant of God because God the Father is simplified as God normally.
Answer me, How do you define the relationship between Mary and God the Father?
Theotokos has a big problem with Trinity !
You can blaspheme Jesus and be forgiven, but if you blaspheme against the Holy Ghost you can not be forgiven.
Do you know why ? Tell me why, then I will let you know my interpretation.
Mat 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
Distinction, Distinction, Distincition instead of saying this:
Mat 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the GOD.
TRHEE DISTINCT PERSONS WITHIN THE GODHEAD.
Do you notice " the name " is singular ?
The Name in singular is shared by three persons.
This is why Peter mentioned people should be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ ( Acts 2:38) Was Peter wrong ? One name is shared by Tri-Unity and this is Trnity.
You are trying to split the God into 3 pieces, describing God as a Monster with 3 heads.
And yes Godhead is in the bible:
Act 17:29 Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device.
Rom 1:20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
Col 2:9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
Yes, Godhead is mentioned in the Bible, but you should remember that
Godhead was not granted by Mary and therefore Mary has no right to claim the Mother of Godhead of Jesus Christ.
Jesus was God the Son before Mary was born!
Mary could not exist without God the Son.
Jesus Christ who is the God the Son planned and created all things including Mary.
Mary was Hell-bound sinner and Jesus came down to save her.
Abraham anticipated to see His days and saw it ( Jn 8:56) Jews asked " did you see Abraham? " Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham, I am"
Finally would you answer me, what is the relationship between Mary and God the Father ?
