More thoughts concerning <b>“the beliefs of the Christians”</b>
According to the Catholic Catechism, Mary is called "<i>the Mother of God</i>", and the reason why she was given such title, because they say, she is the mother of Jesus, and since they believe that Jesus is God, therefore, Mary is God’s mother.
My question is, since Christians believe that Jesus is ‘<i>fully God and fully man</i>”, having 2 natures etc, so, do you guys consider Mary to be the mother of Jesus <b>the man or the God</b>? If she was the mother of Jesus the man, then why do you call her God’s mother? And if you consider her to be the mother of Jesus the God, then how did she conceive God before she was even born?
Thanks in advance.
