    If the bible says that Jesus is the son of God and also calls Jesus the son of the carpenter-Joseph, then how are the four linked?

    I believe Jesus is the son of God born through the holy spirit and the human being who is Mary. She was only a vessel to God's big plan. It could have been any other woman, even your own mother.

    To put it in words everybody can understand. It is true Mary was the mother of Jesus but not the mother of God. This is because Jesus was partly human and partly divine.

    Jesus is the son of God since God is the one who gave him life,its true Jesus was born by Mary and father being Joseph but the most important part is who planned everything and guided Jesus until he came to this world,God initiated everything and that's why Jesus is the son of God.

    Even you apart from your biological parent God is your father since He planned your parent's marriage,He gave them you by giving you life.

    Mary is not the mother of God but rather, the mother of Jesus. The good book, which in this case is the Bible tells us that an angel appeared to Mary and told her that she, a virgin would become pregnant and would bring forth a child who would die on the cross for our sins. This child would be called Jesus and his earthly father would be Joseph.

    Mary and Joseph would go on to raise Jesus as their child according to God's plan and he would grow up being loved by people and God Himself.God is Supreme and as such is the father of all.So there is no way that Mary can be the mother of God.

    No. Mary is not the mother of God but jesus. This is a crucial point that most people get wrong. God was never born and we can never question his existence

    Some people consider Jesus as God; hence declaring that Mary is the mother of God.

    I disagree, Jesus is not the supreme God. As we all well know, Jesus prayed many many times. Whom does he pray to? To God. And if Jesus is the supreme God, why does he need to pray?

    God came before Mary so Mary cannot be the mother of God.
