What are the four dogma of Mary?

Answer 1

Traditionally, all Christians believe the follow 2 doctrines concerning Mary: 1. She was a virgin at the time of the birth of Jesus, who was not conceived through human sexual intercourse but by the power of the Holy Spirit (Luke 1:26-38) 2. She was the Theotokos (literally 'God-bearer') because Christ was God-incarnate(John 1:1-18) Catholicism adds other doctrines:(rejected by Protestants) 3. She remained a virgin after the birth of Jesus 4. She was conceived without the stain of original sin and was totally full of love for God; this is called the Immaculate Conception. Catholicism teaches this because it believes that it would not have been appropriate for God-incarnate to be carried in the womb of a sinful person. For Catholicism, Mary exemplifies that it is possible to be completely faithful to God. 5. After her death, Mary experienced the resurrection that all people will one day undergo and her body was taken into heaven; this is called the Assumption. Catholicism teaches this as a natural extension of number 4. Mary did not sin, therefore her body did not suffer corruption.

A:Teachings shared by all Christian denominations are that Mary was a virgin until the birth of Jesus, was married to Joseph and that Jesus, while on the cross, told the beloved disciple to look after her.

body and soul to heaven (Assumption of Mary).
