Re: (DKB) Muslims worship God of the Bible
The first commandment tells us there is more than one god.

That's odd because it's Trintarians that claim Jesus IS the Mother of God. How can explaining how Mary is NOT the Mother of God make them sound like Trinitarian?

So Jesus isn't God after all.

Yes, there is one True God and a multitude of false gods.

'Mother of God' is a title used for Mary by trinitarians, meaning she is the one who gave birth to the one who is God. No trinitarian claims the term refers to Mary is mother of God 'from eternity' or that she produced or created his divine nature. Theotokos is more accurately translated God-bearer.
The Protestant objection to the use of the title 'Mother of God' has to do with the Eastern Orthodox and Roman Catholic 'veneration of Mary', and has little or anything to do with christology proper. Protestants feel it is borderline idolatrous to venerate anyone except God. Catholics and Orthodox sing hymns and offer prayers to Mary. some hymns are disntictly idolatrous, in my opinion, exalting Mary as the saviour and one who gives redemption to mankind, exalting her above all the angels, etc etc.
See for example http://www.antiochian.org/sites/defa...kos-warren.pdf
But surely you knew all that, of course, which is why I do not understand what 'Mother of God' has to do with anything in this discussion.

Re: (DKB) Muslims worship God of the Bible
You've haven't been involved in my conversations with oneness people who use trinitarian terminology to explain why Mary couldn't be God's mother.

You must have misread what I said. I didn't say anything about whether or not Jesus is God nor whether or not Mary is the Mother of God.
I was referring to your odd statement that Oneness DISAGREE Mary is the Mother of God YET you said "They sound like trinnies."
How can Oneness sound like Trinitarians and yet DISAGREE with Trinitarians over Mary being the Mother of God?

Really? So you are a Polytheist that chooses to worship the biggest God of them all?
