And let's not forget Mary's confession of sinner needing salvation:
And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour. Lk 1:47.
Seems Mary needed saving.
No, it doesn't "seem."
She NEEDED saving.
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
No not so
The church founded by Christ never believed or taught such a thing
She is not immaculate sinless by nature but by grace
She was saved by the merits of Christ and His powerful grace but in advance read carefully please
Immaculate conception (sinless)
gen 3:15 enmity or total war none of satans works are found in Mary!
Lk 1:28 full of grace
Lk 1:49 great things plural (immaculate conception of Mary and the miraculous conception of Jesus)
Rev12:1 woman clothed with the sun. Immaculate purity, filled with the plentitude of divine grace!
Sinless Virgin!
Immaculate conception!
Lk 1:47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
Mary was preserved from all sin!
Jesus is your savior?
How?
By forgiving your past sins? Yes
But also by preserving you from sin!
and Mary was preserved from all sin, original and personal!
In the first moment of Her creation in virtue of the future merits of Jesus Christ!
Lk 1:37 For with God nothing shall be impossible
Lk 1:49 For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name.
Ineffabilis Deus
The Immaculate Conception
Pope BI. Pius IX - 1854
“We declare, pronounce, and define that the doctrine which holds that the most Blessed Virgin Mary, in the first instance of her conception, by a singular grace and privilege granted by Almighty God, in view of the merits of Jesus Christ, the Savior of the human race, was preserved free from all stain of original sin, is a doctrine revealed by God and therefore to be believed firmly and constantly by all the faithful.”
Gen 3:15 I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head, and thou shalt lie in wait for her heel.
(Enmities total war, none of satan’s works found in Her immaculate purity)
Lk 1:28 And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, Mary full of Grace, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.
(Immaculate purity, full of grace, blessed)
Lk 1:35 And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.
(Mary must have immaculate purity)
Lk 1:47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour. (Preserved from all sin in virtue of the merits of the blood of the savior who is Her son)
Lk 1:49 For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name.
(Immaculate conception of Mary and the miraculous conception of Jesus)
Song of Solomon 4:1 Behold, thou art fair, my love; behold, thou art fair; thou hast doves' eyes within thy locks: thy hair is as a flock of goats, that appear from mount Gilead.
Rev 12:1 a woman clothed with the sun.
(Immaculate purity)
Two ways of being savior, forgive sins: and to preserve us from sin:
Mary was preserved by God from sin!
Because of Her immaculate Conception and being filled with the plenitude of divine grace Mary from her mother’s womb saw the beatific vision of God in heaven on His throne, and was consumed with love and desire for God and His will, she dedicated and consecrated her entire being to Him forever, and began interceding and imploring God’s grace and mercy! Matt 5:8
The pure of heart shall see God.
Song of Solomon 4:7 Thou art all fair, my love; there is no spot in thee.
Song of Solomon 6: 9 My dove, my undefiled is but one; she is the only one of her mother, she is the choice one of her that bare her. The daughters saw her, and blessed her; yea, the queens and the concubines, and they praised her.
10 Who is she that looketh forth as the morning, fair as the moon, clear as the sun, and terrible as an army with banners?
Christ not only saves us from our past sins by forgiveness but he also preserves us from future sin by his grace, in both cases he is savior, and Mary was preserved from original sin and from all sin to the glory of God and the praise of Jesus Christ! Lk 1:49
Since when does the Holy Ghost overshadow a sinner? Lk 1:35
Since when does the Holy Ghost conceive in a sinner? Matt 1:20
Since when does sinner bear the Holy savior? The Holy Son of God? Lk 1:35
Ex 25 see how holy, pure, and consecrated to God’s holy purpose:
Jesus Christ took flesh and blood from a sinner?
The Holy Spirit of God conceived in a sinner the eternal salvation of God and the holy Son of God?
Anything consecrated to God and His service (purposes) must be immaculate clean and pure, covered in Gold.
