Creed Article 3-5

Article 3: He was conceived by the holy spirit, born of the Virgin Mary
Parts: The Four Marian Dogma, Jesus’ Early Life, Jesus’ Public Ministry
Four Marian Dogma:

 Mary Mother of God
o Council of Ephesus in 431 AD
o Theotokos (Mother of God)
o Cristotokos (Mother of Christ)
o Proof:
 The Annunciation (Gabriel)
 The Visitation (Elizabeth)

o Pope Pius IX on Dec 8, 1854 with the bull Ineffabilis Deus
o Immaculate in Latin “in and macula” meaning “without stain”
o Celebrated on Dec 8 exactly 9 months before the Nativity of Mary (September 8)
o Errors:
 Mary is immaculate because she was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit.
 Mary is immaculate because she is a virgin.
 Mary is immaculate, therefore she did not need a Savior.
o Proof:
 Genesis 3:51
 Luke 1:28
o St. Bernadette Soubirous “I am the Immaculate Conception”
 The assumption

August 15.
o Proof:

 12 starts: 12 apostles
 Sun representing the Holy Spirit
 Moon because she reflects like the moon the love of God
o Two Traditions:

Fifth Marian Dogma:
