Significance and Importance of Mariology

Module 3.1
Let’s Start
At the end of module 1 you will be able to:
 strengthen their knowledge of Mariology in its essential aspects;

 understand the role of Mary in our salvation;
 thank God for the gift of presence of the Blessed Virgin Mary in our lives.
Let’s Recall
Start the module with the prayer song- Mary’s Faith (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0GgLPofU3Ic).
A mother’s love is beyond compare and to be a mother, one should possess the virtues of love, patience and
perseverance. Motherhood entails great sacrifices, letting go of oneself for the sake of her children. Mothers sacrifice a
lot for their children. God has gifted them to care for, protect, love and teach their children in the ways of God.
Mothers have a great and indispensable role in the history of humankind.
Let’s Explore

Catholic Tradition includes the following teachings:

1. Mary’s Immaculate Conception- she was born without original sin, and was therefore sinless throughout her
life.
2. Mary received almost nightly visits by angels as a temple child.
3. Mary’s Perpetual Virginity- had no children before Jesus (a Biblical teaching) or after Him (unbiblical).
4. Mary’s Physical Ascension Into Heaven- because of her sinlessness, Mary never experienced a physical death –
the result of sin. Instead, she was raised bodily into the presence of Christ.
5. Mary’s Role as Co-redemptrix and Mediatrix of All Graces: holds that the obedience and sufferings of Mary
were essential to secure the full redemption bought by Christ.
6. Mary’s Right to Veneration and/or worship: because of her unparalleled role in salvation, Mary is worthy of
special adoration.
