Mary, the Mother of God
The first dogma concerning Mary is that of being proclaimed Theotókosrendered in English as Mother of God, by the Second Ecumenical Council of Ephesus 431. The teaching of the Council was to protect the Christological truth of the two natures of Christ: Jesus in his Incarnation is truly eternally the Son of God and now also truly human, and as God made Man, was born of the Virgin Mary:
begotten from the Father before the ages as regards his Godhead, and in the last days, the same, because of us and because of our salvation begotten from the Virgin Mary, the Theotokos, as regards his manhood; one and the same Christ, Son, Lord, Only-begotten.
The Catechism of the Catholic Church goes on
Called in the Gospels "the mother of Jesus," Mary is acclaimed by Elizabeth, at the prompting of the Spirit and even before the birth of her son, as "the mother of my Lord." In fact, the One whom she conceived as man by the Holy Spirit, who truly became her Son according to the flesh, was none other than the Father's eternal Son, the second person of the Holy Trinity. Hence the Church confesses that Mary is truly "Mother of God" (Theotokos).” (n. 495)
