Does God have a Queen or a Wife?

The Church’s language assumes certain revealed truths about the nature of God and the nature of the Incarnation. Mary is the Mother of God because she is the mother of a Person who is God. In a similar sense, she is God’s Queen, because she is the Queen Mother of God, Jesus Christ.

Does this mean that God has a wife? No, that would reduce the relationship to the carnal. Rather, the relationship is a profound spiritual union, that of charity. The Apostle John in Rev. 21, like the author of Canticle of Canticles, and the mystics writing about union with God, use marriage imagery to describe what is an otherwise indescribable spiritual communion.
