She did not bear the Holy Spirit or the Father, but she DID bear the Son, GOD the Son, hence the term mother of God

One cannot say "Oh, she was just the mother of the Savior not God" because the Savior was/is God.

Well make up your mind...You're speaking out of both sides of your mouth at the same time...

There are not three Gods...There is one God...

I hope you are well. You still have one of the best tag lines of all Freeperdom.

To my mind those who deny the Trinity err in thinking that they know more about what "one" is than they do.

It's not only materialistic, but it's an erroneous materialism because in the material world we are hard put to find something that is truly 'one'. As I've said before, the word 'atom' means something that cannot be cut, something indivisible, something without even the potential of parts. Yet we've been splitting "atoms" for quite some time now and we discover that they do have parts, and those parts have parts. Where is the material "oneness" to be found? And if we cannot seem to find it, do we really know as much as we might think about what "one" means?

Traditional Trinitarianism denies parts to God and denies that the so-called hypostases (or "persons") are merely functions or modes of Divine action.

In doing so,it invites us to confess our at least partial ignorance of even the simplest ideas. I think that's a good thing and commends the doctrine.

And why did your post in 2008 say you were Catholic (link at the bottom of my homepage) — first Catholic, then Baptist, then Pentecostal, etc. etc. — your non-Christian cult likes to cause discord among Christians eh. Standard taqqiyah practice

iscool: There are not three Gods...There is one God

The Moslems have been accusing us Christians of worshipping three Gods for some time. Here iscool's post repeats the La illah allah refrain.
