For those who had trouble understanding Shamasha Paul's distinction between the dash & the slash (God-man verses God/man) perhaps this quote from a very biased article on OrthodoxWiki (Eastern Orthodox) will give some insight (emphasis mine):
Quote:Protestant Theology as a form of Crypto-Nestorianism
In their refusal to venerate the Virgin Mary, modern Evangelical Protestants deny the use of the term Theotokos. In defending this, many Evangelical Protestants argue that the Virgin Mary could not have given birth to God but only to the man Jesus. They thus again separate in the Theandric God-man Jesus a human and a Divine person and teach Nestorianism.
The error of this thinking lies in the failure to understand the intricacies of Christology and the doctrine of Incarnation. A proper understanding of the Virgin Mary is required for a proper understanding of Jesus Christ. If Mary is not Theotokos, then Christ is not God-man. Likewise, if Christ is God-man, then Mary is Theotokos. If Mary is not Ever-Virgin, then Christ did not become God Incarnate. If Christ became God Incarnate, then Mary is Ever-Virgin. If Mary is not the Queen Mother, then Christ is not King; if Christ is King, then Mary is Queen Mother.
For more on the importance of Our Lady Theotokos and Ever-Virgin Mary to a proper understanding of the dogmas of the Incarnation and the Trinity, see George S. Gabriel, Mary, the Untrodden Portal of God.
(Nestorianism).
BTW speaking of Mar Bawai Rabba, anyone have a link for an English translation of his Book of Union?

Hi Dean,
May I know the name of the Ex-Bishop you are involving in this post and where exactly is the Church he had been preached the three chapters and two statements? I haven't gotten to finish the article yet, but I will take my time of reading it a little later, for the benefit of my knowing.
Please Pm the answer ASAP.
Thanks then.
