Jan 11, 2022 at 1:13 | comment | added | Ken Graham♦ | @MikeBorden If you wish to debate such things, please go to chat or pose a question. The Church only speaks of the Immaculate Conception as something that was "fitting," something that made Mary a "fit habitation" (i.e., suitable dwelling) for the Son of God, not something that was necessary. | |
Jan 11, 2022 at 1:10 | comment | added | Mike Borden | So Catholics believe that Jesus avoided the sin nature by lack of human paternity and Mary avoided it by a special Divine action in spite of human paternity? If that is the case, why bother with a virgin birth? | |
Jan 10, 2022 at 22:55 | comment | added | Ken Graham♦ | @MikeBorden Jesus’ Conception was unique and produced by the grace of the Holy Spirit. Mary’s Conception was as ordinary in all regards to the rest of humanity, except that God granted her an Immaculate Conception in view of being the Mother of Our Redeemer. Her Immaculate Conception was due to a divine prerogative given to at the moment of conception. | |
Jan 10, 2022 at 21:30 | comment | added | Mike Borden | Are you suggesting that Mary's conception and Jesus' conception were the same, i.e. not the product of sexual union between a man and a woman? Jesus' conception was not a singular event? | |
