a) Mary is not the immaculate conception. Her conceiving is the "immaculate conception".
Page 1.
Ok so let's break this down. And realize, my only desire is to protect people from what is most certainly coming. So, I pray this penetrates the thick skulls out there. You are indoctrinated from a denomination no matter how you turn it.
First what is a conception? And can this conception be in Christ, if in Christ who is sinless and pure, would your conception in Him be an Immaculate one?
It can mean:
Conception -the forming or devising of a plan or idea:
"the time between a conception and its launch"
Now, if Mary is the first to be born of the imperishable seed and all else followed from that birth (her birth) would she not be the Immaculate Conception from which all else followed?
John 3:
3
Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again.” 4“How can a man be born when he is old?” Nicodemus asked. “Can he enter his mother’s womb a second time to be born?”…
The bottom line is, this conversation could not take place without the first one. That first conversation is with Mary, regarding the New Covenant. That is simply fact. So, that would mean she first, before all who would come into the New Covenant, would have to be born again.
With every birth, including being born again, there first has to be a conception- a seed. And St. Peter addresses this.
1Peter1:23
23
For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God.
Jaybo, this is all fact. Unless you deny Mary received the Word of God? Immaculate Conception, concerning hers that is, would have to pertain to being born again. The imperishable seed is what she was conceived in. Are you saying that seed is not Immaculate? Since she is the first to be born of the imperishable seed, she is the church's Immaculate Conception. By receiving the imperishable Word in her heart and soul she was prepared to quite literally conceive, carry and birth the Church. It is obvious that in birthing Christ, she birthed a nation in one day. I know, I know, you have been indoctrinated to think the nation born in one day is the Rothschild's Israel. Therefore, this Isaiah prophecy eludes you. So, allow me to break it down.
Isaiah 66:
7“Before she was in labor, she gave birth;
( Before Mary was in labor, she gave birth=was born again. For she could not go in labor for Christ until first she, herself gave birth to her soul by way of faith.)
before she was in pain, she delivered a boy.
(Before she was in pain which comes from labor pains, she delivered a boy in her heart and soul. That has to be true because that is what all born again souls do and is why she sang her song. )
Luke 1:
41When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.
42In a loud voice she exclaimed, “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!
43And why am I so honored, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?
44For as soon as the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy.
45Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord’s word to her will be fulfilled.”
What Elizabeth says fulfills what is in Isaiah 66: 7 and what follows from Mary proves she gave birth before she was in labor for Christ, she said this before she was in any pain of delivery. She first testified to that birth in herself .
Mary’s Song
46Then Mary said:
“My soul magnifies the Lord,
47and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior!
48For He has looked with favor on the humble state of His servant.
From now on all generations will call me blessed.
49For the Mighty One has done great things for me.
Holy is His name.
50His mercy extends to those who fear Him,
from generation to generation.
51He has performed mighty deeds with His arm;
He has scattered those who are proud
in the thoughts of their hearts.
52He has brought down rulers from their thrones,
but has exalted the humble.
53He has filled the hungry with good things,
but has sent the rich away empty.
54He has helped His servant Israel,
remembering to be merciful,
55as He promised to our fathers,
to Abraham and his descendants forever.”
56Mary stayed with Elizabeth for about three months and then returned home.
