Best Answer

Mary was declared 'mother of the church' "Theotokos" during the Council of Ephesus in the year 431.

She was also called 'the Mother of Jesus' during the Wedding at Cana found in John 2, 1;19. Also, in the Visitation - Mary's visit to Elizabeth her cousin, and in conversation with Mary, Elizabeth is quoted in The Bible having said under the impulse of the Holy Spirit "how is it that I deserve a visit from the mother of my Lord" before Mary's son was even born, this is found in Luke 1,43.

Trinitarian theology explains that Jesus, the eternal son of God is the second person of the one true God.
