GOD THE REDEEMER, MOTHER MARY DOGMA
God the Redeemer
- Jesus Christ is true God and true Son of God.
- Christ assumed a real body, not an apparent body.
- Christ assumed not only a body but also a rational soul.
- Christ was truly generated and born of a daughter of Adam, the Virgin Mary.
- The Divine and human natures are united hypostatically in Christ, that is, joined
to each other in one Person.
- In the hypostatic union each of the two natures of Christ continues unimpaired,
untransformed, and unmixed with each other.
- Each of the two natures in Christ possesses its own natural will and its own
natural mode of operation.
- The hypostatic union of Christ's human nature with the Divine Logos took place at
the moment of conception.
- The hypostatic union was effected by the three Divine Persons acting in common.
- Only the second Divine Person became Man.
- Not only as God but also as man Jesus Christ is the natural Son of God.
- The God-Man Jesus Christ is to be venerated with one single mode of worship, the
absolute worship of latria which is due to God alone.
- Christ's Divine and human characteristics and activities are to be predicated of
the one Word Incarnate.
- Christ was free from all sin, from original sin as well as from all personal sin.
- Christ's human nature was passable.
- The Son of God became man in order to redeem men.
- Fallen man cannot redeem himself.
- The God-man Jesus Christ is a high priest.
- Christ offered Himself on the Cross as a true and proper sacrifice.
- Christ by His sacrifice on the Cross has ransomed us and reconciled us with God.
- Christ, through His passion and death, merited award from God.
- After His death, Christ's Soul, which was separated from His Body, descended into
the underworld.
- On the third day after His death, Christ rose gloriously from the dead.
- Christ ascended body and soul into Heaven and sits at the right hand of the Father.
The Mother of the Redeemer
- Mary is truly the Mother of God.
- Mary was conceived without the stain of original sin.
Mary is the Immaculate Conception.
- Mary conceived by the Holy Ghost without the cooperation of man.
- Mary bore her Son without any violation of her virginal integrity.
- After the birth of Jesus, Mary remained a Virgin.
