DOCTRINE
Immaculate Conception of Mary
Summary
The Church defines that the Blessed Virgin Mary was, from the first moment of her conception, preserved immune from all stain of original sin by a singular grace and privilege of God, in view of the merits of Jesus Christ.
The exact theological classification and certainty vocabulary are provisional and require qualified theological review.
