Daily Catholic Quote from St. Cyril of Alexandria

by ICL Editor | June 27, 2013 7:30 am

“That anyone could doubt the right of the holy Virgin to be called the Mother of God fills me with astonishment. Surely she must be the Mother of God if our Lord Jesus Christ is God, and she gave birth to him! Our Lord’s disciples may not have used those exact words, but they delivered to us the belief those words enshrine, and this has also been taught us by the holy fathers.” (St. Cyril of Alexandria, Bishop and Doctor of the Church; Optional Memorial – June 27)
