Well since God has no beginning, and had no birth. Mary is NOT the mother of God.
However, Jesus did need a human body to enter to be able to do the work God planned to send him to do. So Mary is the mother of the Flesh of Jesus. She gave him his earthly flawed body. Jesus body was flawed, However he was not infected with original sin, because he was not of Adam, Thus he was not born dead, as all men are. Thus the reason for virgin birth. Jesus was not infected with the sin nature passed on from adam (men) He was born as Adam was created, free from sin (although his body had the same curse). The difference is Adam failed, and thus condemned all man kind. for as scripture says, when Adam sinned all sinned. Christ lived a life free of sin.

No, God chose someone to give a human body for his son. He did not chose a mother. God has no mother. I think Resurrection said it clearly. The vary God who formed mary in her mothers womb could does not need her to be his mother. He was before abraham, he was also before mary. she gave a human body to allow his spirit to reside in and do what he did.

Because Mary gave birth to Christ, God incarnate in the flesh. So by definition that makes her his mother. Of course you hold that Mary simply carried a soulless husk in her womb so I wouldn't expect you to believe it. But I will say that at least your position is intellectually honest when it comes to rejecting the title Mother of God.
