The Trinity
Two of the foundational beliefs of Christians, officially and solemnly decreed by an ecumenical council 1,700 years ago are:
1. There are three persons in the one God, and
2. Jesus Christ is divine, co-eternal and consubstanial with the Father.
Mary, Mother of God
There are four dogmas concerning Mary. The first two dogmas – Mary’s divine maternity and her virginity – through Mary tell us something about Jesus Christ. The other two – Mary’s immaculate conception and her assumption – through Mary tell us something about salvation in Jesus Christ and therefore about ourselves, who are the church.
