Apostles' Creed Part 3 - He was Conceived by the tPower of the Holy Spirit, Born of the Virgin Mary

Jesus Christ was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit, as declared by the archangel Gabriel: "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will cover you with its shadow. And so the child will be holy and will be called Son of God" (Luke 1:35). St.Joseph was not the real father of Jesus, but only his foster father. We believe in four marian dogmas, namely:

1) Mary Mother of God: 
Mary is the mother of Jesus, Jesus is God: therefore, Mary is the Mother of God.

2)Perpetual Virginity:
Mary remained virgin for her whole life, because she was completely consecrated to God, and also because it was not proper that the Mother of God should have other children.

3) Immaculate Conception:
Mary was conceived without original sin, and was never stained by any sin, in view of her divine motherhood.

4) Assumption:
At the end of her life, Mary was assumed body and soul to Paradise, because God did not want the body who conceived Jesus to experience decay.
