By the way that “mother my Lord” is not the same translation as “Mother of God”. Two different things. I will accept, Mother of the Lord, just like there are several references to the “Brothers and Sisters of the Lord”, which were also born of Mary’s womb. That doesn’t make them the Brothers and Sisters of God.Like I said, the purpose of the title “Mother of God” is to affirm the truth of the Hypostatic Union. The problem is that you assume “motherhood” means that the mother pre-existed the son. That is not always the case. There is God the Father and Jesus is the Son. Does this mean that because Jesus is the Son of the Father, that the Father pre-existed the Son?
Mary is the mother of Jesus - and hence God because Jesus is God - because she carried Him in her womb for nine months, gave birth to Him, nursed Him, and raised Him and he was subject to her while He was a child, not because she preexisted Him or created Him:
Luke 2:51
51And He went down with them and came to Nazareth, and He continued in subjection to them; and His mother treasured all these things in her heart.
And Elizabeth, under (name removed by moderator)siration of the Holy Spirit, could not be any clearer:
Luke 1:42-43
42And she cried out with a loud voice and said, "Blessed are you amon women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!
43"And how has it happened to me, that the mother of my Lord would come to me?
Mother of My Lord, not “mother of my Lord’s body.” Like I said, women do not give birth to bodies, they give birth to persons and Mary gave birth to the person of Christ who assumed a human nature within her womb.
God Bless,

Lord is a title that’s very open to discussion while God is not the same. The scriptures do not say Mary is the Mother of God.
Also that doesn’t give her some special position in respect to the salvation of men aside from giving birth.
And someone please answer regarding the other points on that Immaculate conception, and the rest of the Marian dogmas on the points that I presented, unless they are been ignored for lack of evidence.
