Heres some additional things which are Portions of what I have previously posted on the Mariology forum
I don't know how to set this one up, but I do agree with Elizabeths words, Mother of my Lord (and not God) because the Word became flesh and God made Jesus Lord and Christ.
So I stand with Elizabeth on this one.
For example we would agree that the Word, the Father and the Holy Ghost are one. The Word became flesh/made a man/seed of Abraham and made Christ and Lord (who only hath immortality) and our one mediator between God and man (the man Jesus Christ).
That aside.
I think we would agree that the"my Lord" (in red) is Jesus Christ after his ascension
Shows this in the Psalm
Psalm 110:1 [[A Psalm of David.]] The LORD (Jehovah) said unto my Lord (Yeshua) Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.
Jesus points out what David professes concerning him as "my Lord" comes by the Holy Ghost here
Mark 12:36 For David himself said by the Holy Ghost,
The LORD said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,
till I make thine enemies thy footstool.
Elizabeth also acknowledges Mary as the mother of my Lord in this same way
Luke 1:43 And whence is this to me,
that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
As Jesus was made of a woman made under the law, as he is the Word made flesh, taking upon him the seed of Abraham.
The acknowledgement we have is that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. And it was God that made Jesus Lord and Christ
The apostles show The LORD (Jehovah) made Jesus Lord and Christ
Acts 2:36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly,
that God hath made that same Jesus,
whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
Now, I certainly do not want to diminish the virgin birth when it comes to the only begotten of the Father. I just don't see it as appropriate to say mother of my God over Mary the mother of my Lord, I think Elizabeth got it more appropriately as it relates to this.
God made Jesus both Lord and Christ, the Son of God
And yes I know the Son is the Word made flesh (Who WAS with God) Who come out from God, and Who WAS God was also made flesh. Who took not upon himself the nature of angels but the seed of Abraham. We know His divinity preceeded Mary (so she did not give birth by way of imparting any of His divinity to him) obviously. The Word having been made flesh emptied himself (was made of a woman made under the law) became a man (in order to die) and so I agree more with Elizabeth who adresses Mary as the mother of my Lord not mother of my God.
This simplifies things
1 Cr 8:6 But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
And I don't even want to diminish "God with us". We know the Word who WAS God (was made flesh) emptied himself and did his works by the Father (as he was never alone). As we know God was with Christ (Acts 10:38) as God was in Christ (2 Cr 5:19) and it was God that made him to be Lord and Christ 9for us) and was with us in Him.
John 14:10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father,
and the Father in me?
Jesus (my Lord) also said His Father (my God) was in him which did the works.
The Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.
2 Cr 5:19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself,
John 20:17 Jesus now, after he had risen said... go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.
Jesus who was made Lord and Christ said, I (your Lord) ascend unto MY God and YOUR God (who is the God who made him Lord and Christ). Its better left simple.
I would stick with Elizabeth's adress of Mary, as the mother of my Lord (Who is the Christ, the Son of God) and much more ofcourse but she's not mother of all he is before he come into this world by her. Obviously because he was before her, and created her (and so He is probably more her mother then she is his) but regardless she is mother of my Lord
Although, I dont really like how I put that out there because I would have chosen a different arrangement, or left out a thing or two but I figured someone would jump on it (like some do accusing you of a pseudo denial of his divinity) whenever preferring Elizabeths words others so I over stuffed a little and get a ittle sloppy.
