Why is the Blessed Virgin Mary the Mother of
God?
What is the Immaculate Conception?


In the generation of a new human person,
parents give their child a body, and God
directly infuses the child’s soul. Nevertheless,
the parents are the parents of the entire child.
The Blessed Virgin Mary is the origin of the
human body of Christ, thus she is the Mother
of the whole person of Christ, who is the divine
Second Person of the Blessed Trinity,
possessing two natures: human and divine.


The Most Blessed Virgin Mary, at the very
instant of her conception, by a unique grace
and privilege of the omnipotent God, and in
consideration of the merits of Christ Jesus, the
Savior of the human race, was preserved free
from all stain of original sin. This is the dogma
of the Immaculate Conception.
