Using the diagram explain why it is theologically sound to state that "Mary is the Mother of God".
Why would it not be correct to say Mary is the Mother of the "Holy Spirit"? (All choices are correct)
Jesus IS God. Since Mary is the biological Mother of Jesus then Mary is also the Mother of God. Jesus "IS NOT" the Holy Spirit therefore she IS NOT the mother of the Holy Spirit
"Mary is truly 'Mother of God' since she is the mother of the eternal Son of God made man, who is God himself. Jesus "Is Not" the Father therefore she is not the Mother of the Father
If Mary is the mother of Jesus, and Jesus is God, then Mary is the Mother of God. Saying Mary isn't the Mother of God denies the divinity of Jesus. Jesus "Is Not" the Holy Spirit therefore she is not the Mother of the Holy Spirit
Heresy that taught Mary WAS NOT the Mother of God

Nestorianism
