>>Do you think Jesus was fully God when He walked on this earth<<

Of course He was fully God. That does not make Mary the mother of His deity. Those who claim she is "mother of God" claim to know more about the mystery of the incarnation than is found in scripture.

False. For those who receive the word with all readiness of mind, Miriam is the mother of God with us.

She was the mother of the incarnate, 2d person of the Trinity. He existed as the pre-incarate 2d person of the Trinity, and she was not the mother of the pre-incarnate person. After all, He predated her.

But there is no denying she was the mother of the incarnate Son of God. So, when the question comes up, I always emphasize the incarnation to be absolutely clear.
