Paragraph 2. “CONCEIVED BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT AND BORN OF THE VIRGIN MARY”
506
Mary
is a virgin because her virginity is the sign of her faith “unadulterated
by any doubt”, and of her undivided gift of herself to God’s
will.168 It is her faith that enables her to become the mother of the
Saviour: “Mary is more blessed because she embraces faith in Christ than
because she conceives the flesh of Christ.”169
