shalt not commit adultery " (Ex 20, 14, Dt 5, 17).

"You have heard it said: 'Do not commit adultery." But I say: Everyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart "

(Mt 5, 27-28).

1 .- Sexuality in God's Plan

God has endowed man with the gift of sexuality. Through this gift, having been created in the Image and Likeness of God, man is a sharer in creative work. This reflects the loving plan of God: the transmission of life in an act of love and devotion.

2331 'God is love and live in itself a mystery personal loving communion. Creating it in his image ... God inscribed in the humanity of man and woman vocation, and thus the capacity and responsibility of love and communion '(FC 11).

'God created man in His own image ... male and female he created '(Gn 1, 27). 'Be fruitful and multiply ' (Gn 1, 28), 'the day that God created man, made him the image of God. Created them male and female, blessed them and called them 'man' on the day of its establishment '(Gn 5, 1-2).

God wanted to share their creative work with humans. The man, except in cases of illness or birth, has inscribed in human nature the capacity to transmit life to the natural propagation of mankind. God has arranged the transmission of life is through the Sacrament of Marriage, as well, wished that his biological being, in its being material, is on record.

A person who takes herself eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven (Mt 19, 12) person will remain in that capacity, regardless of the will of celibacy for the love of God. This call does not extend to all people. St. Paul will say:

1 Corinthians 7, 7-9 : My wish is that all men were like me, but everyone has his own special gift of God: one of one kind, others another. However, I say to the unmarried and widows: Well I will stay as is. But if they can not contain, let them marry is better to marry than to burn

celibacy is a vocation given by God.

Nor can the man can not choose their own discretion what to do with that capacity, being treated so immoral that it is sterile, because that puts his will to the Will of God. God is the master of creation, and therefore of our being, body and spirit.

2 .- The integrity of the person and chastity

The two realities of man, the corporeal and spiritual, can not be separated or divided :

2332 Sexuality embraces all aspects of the human person, in the unity of his body and soul . Concerns particularly the affectivity, the capacity to love and to procreate and, more generally, the ability to establish bonds of communion with another.

2333 is up to each man and woman, acknowledge and accept his sexual identity . The difference and complementarity physical, moral and spiritual are oriented toward the goods of marriage and family life development . The harmony of the human couple and of society depends in part on how they are experienced gender complementarity, mutual need and support.

Chastity plays an important role in human life, because:

2337 Chastity means the successful integration of sexuality within the person, and thus the inner unity man in his bodily and spiritual . Sexuality, which expresses man's belonging to the bodily and biological world, it becomes personal and truly human when it is integrated into the relationship of person to person, in the gift complete and lifelong mutual men and women.

Chastity is a virtue Baptized which all must fight. It involves learning self-control. It is a work in progress, since there is obtained once and forever. The man thus freed from the slavery of the passions.

2341 The virtue of chastity is part of the cardinal virtue of temperance, which tends to permeate rationality the passions and appetites of human sensitivity.

Since Chastity is a continuous learning, the effort to achieve can be affected by the imperfection or sin. It is also a social and cultural effort, because people do not living in isolation. Salvation has always been regarded as a communal reality (Encyclical Letter "Spe Salvi" 14) .

The Sixth Commandment, as understood the tradition of the Church covers the whole of human sexuality.

3 .- Respect where it does

Thus man should not despise his bodily nature, loved by God, through which states that capacity to love and be capable of God.

At the beginning of Christianity arose a heresy known as encratism, who despised the bodily part of man, as his idea derives from the Neoplatonic and Gnostic concept of matter as a principle of evil.

2346 Charity is the form of every virtue. Under its influence, chastity appears as a school of the gift of the person. Self-mastery is ordered to the gift of himself. Chastity leads to the practice to be a witness to our neighbor's faithfulness and tenderness of God.

4 .- Regimes of Chastity

"is up to the man how to live their sexuality? Natural Law, inscribed in the hearts of men, governs the conduct in the exercise of sexuality. Being the Natural Law as follows:

1954. Man participates in the wisdom and goodness of the Creator who gives him mastery over his acts and the ability to govern with a view to truth and goodness. The natural law expresses the original moral sense which enables man discern by reason that are good and evil, truth and lies:

natural law is written and engraved in the soul of each and every one of the men because it is human reason that orders do good and forbids sin ... But this prescription of human reason could not become law if it were the voice and interpreter of a higher rate at which our spirit and our freedom must be submitted. (Leo XIII, enc. "Libertas praestantissimum).

As mentioned, it is the duty of every baptized:

2348 All the baptized are called to chastity. The Christian has "put on Christ" (Ga 3, 27), model of all chastity. All Christ's faithful are called to a chaste life according to their particular state of life. At the time of his baptism, the Christian undertakes to manage his emotions in chastity.

Chastity Each person lives according to their status: those dedicated to the living God through celibacy. Single people living in the abstinence and married in married life. It should be noted that chastity is not focused solely on the corporal. Since covering the whole person, Chastity governs all actions of the person: moderate their desires and rejects everything that is opposed to natural law. It is something that exists in all aspects of human life. Thus, the Church also pronounced couples in their way of knowledge:

2350 Grooms are called to live chastity in continence . In this test have to see a discovery of mutual respect, an apprenticeship in fidelity and hope of receiving one another from God . They should reserve for marriage the expressions of affection that conjugal love. They will help each to grow in chastity.

5 .- Offenses Chastity

1 Corinthians 6, 15-20: Know ye not that your bodies are members of Christ? And I had to take Christ's members and make them members of a prostitute? No way! Do you not know that anyone who joins the prostitute becomes one body with her? As is said: The two shall become one flesh. But he that is joined to the Lord becomes one spirit with him. Flee fornication All sin man commits is outside his body, but he who sins sexually sins against his own body . Know ye not that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you have from God and not your own? have been bought! Glorify, then, God in your body.

The Catechism of the Catholic Church lists the following breaches of Chastity:

Lust: which is an inordinate desire or enjoyment of sexual pleasure. Sexual pleasure is morally disordered when sought for itself, separate from the purposes of procreation and union.

The Masturbation: which is the deliberate stimulation of the genitals in order to derive sexual pleasure. Sexual pleasure is sought for itself, and it is morally illicit. Constitutes an abuse of the given capacity in man. Should take into account the affective immaturity, force of acquired habit, conditions of anxiety or other psychological or social factors that reduce or even nullify the moral guilt.

Fornication: that is carnal union between a man and a woman outside marriage.

Pornography: that is to show sex acts, actual or simulated, from the intimacy of the protagonists, displaying them to third parties deliberately. It offends against chastity because it perverts the sexual act. Grave injury to the dignity of those involved in it.

Prostitution: that violates the dignity of the person who engages in, as is reduced to sexual pleasure is taken out of it. It is always gravely sinful to engage in prostitution, destitution, blackmail, and social pressure can attenuate the attribution of failure.

The Violation: that is the forcible violent sexual intimacy of a person. Injury to justice and charity. The violation deeply wounds the right of everyone to respect, freedom, physical and moral integrity. More serious still is the rape committed by parents or teachers with the children entrusted to them.

not just wonder what the status of a person with homosexual tendencies. The Church welcomes children always so loving, and as a mother understands that a person in that situation presents a particular challenge very large. Homosexual acts are always contrary to natural law, and family affection between two people of same sex affection is not straight, as it is against their dignity and sexual reality, who must accept.

The Church understands this and treats them with compassion, love and respect. Avoid discrimination. As we all are called to fulfill God's will and can unite their sufferings to the Cross of Christ (Lk 9, 23) .

6 .- Married life: marriage and transmission of life

The duty of transmitting life " has always been for spouses, free and responsible collaborators of God the Creator" (Encyclical Humanae Vitae , 1).

1601 "The matrimonial covenant, by which a man and a woman establish between themselves a partnership for life, ordered by its very nature to the good of the spouses and the procreation and education of offspring was raised by Christ the Lord to the dignity of a sacrament between the baptized "( ⇒ CIC, can. 1055.1)

Marriage involves two inseparable and irreplaceable for: union and procreation.

As the man image and likeness of God, is in his nature to love. In the state of marriage, the spouses give each other is a donation of all eprsona (body and spirit) to form the two "one flesh " (Gen 2, 24) . Married life is made for the good of the spouses, and that's where it is consumed the sacrament itself.

2361 "Sexuality, by which man and woman give each other the acts proper and exclusive to spouses, is not something purely biological, but concerns the innermost being of the human person as such. It is realized in a truly human way only if it is an integral part of love with which man and woman commit themselves totally to one another until death '(FC 11).

This release should be provided as such, not selfishly seek their own pleasure and satisfaction:

Tobias 8, 4-9: Tobias got up from bed and told Sara, 'Come, sister, and pray and ask our Lord to have mercy on us and save us. " She got up and began to pray and ask to be spared. He began by saying: 'Blessed are you, God of our fathers ... You created Adam, and he created Eve his wife for support and help , and both came to the race of men. You said, "is not good that man should be alone, let us make a helper fit for him." I do not take my sister to this impure desire, but with good intentions. Have mercy on me and her and we get old together. " And they said in unison, 'Amen, Amen'. and went to bed for the night

The love between husband and wife set a bond, fidelity, same promise before the altar, having a union blessed by the Creator and human life has meaning.

2365 Fidelity expresses constancy in keeping word. God is faithful. The Sacrament of Marriage does enter the men and women in the mystery of Christ's faithfulness to his Church . By the conjugal chastity bear witness to this mystery to the world.

St. John Chrysostom suggests that young husbands make their wives reasoning: 'I have taken in my arms, I love you and I prefer my life. For the present life is nothing, my wish is to be with you so that we can be sure of not being separated in the life reserved for us ... I place your love above all, and nothing I will be more painful than not having the same thoughts that you have ' (Hom. in Eph. 20, 8).

consecuancia The Procreation is the delivery of that total, about a love that is unselfish and does not reserve anything, thus showing the desire of the spouses to fulfill God's Will .

2366 Fertility is a gift, an end of marriage, for conjugal love naturally tends to be fruitful . The child does not come from outside in addition to the mutual love of spouses, springs from the heart of that mutual giving, as its fruit and fulfillment. Therefore the Church, it is' for life '(FC 30), teaches that whole' marriage act must remain open to the transmission of life ' (HV 11). 'This doctrine, often expounded by the magisterium, is founded upon the inseparable connection, willed by God and that man can not break on its own initiative, between the two meanings of the conjugal act: the unitive and the procreative meaning "(HV 12; cf Pius XI, enc. "Casti connubii).

Thus:

2369 'safeguarding both these essential aspects unitive and procreative, the conjugal act preserves in its fullness the sense of true mutual love and its ordination to the supreme vocation of man to parenthood '(HV 12).

7 .- Offenses married life

Adultery:

2381 Adultery is an injustice. The perpetrator renege on their commitments. Injured the sign of the covenant which the marriage is . Violates the right of the other spouse, and undermines the institution of matrimonio, violando el contrato que le da origen. Compromete el bien de la generación humana y de los hijos, que necesitan la unión estable de los padres.

El divorcio atenta contra la intención original del Creador que quería un matrimonio indisoluble (Mt 5, 31-32; 19, 3-9; Mc 10, 9; Lc 16, 18; 1 Co 7, 10-11) . El Matrimonio que ha sido consumado es ya totalmente indisoluble. L que Dios ha unido, no lo sepre el hombre.

Sin embargo, dado algunas circunstancias, hay que contemplar lo siguiente:

2383 La separation [physical] of spouses while maintaining the marriage bond can be legitimate in certain cases provided by Canon Law (CIC can. 1151-1155).

If civil divorce remains the only possible way of ensuring certain legal rights, the care of children or the protection of inheritance, can be tolerated without creating a moral failure.

If divorce and one spouse is bound to another person, commits adultery.

Matthew 5, 32: Well I say: Anyone who divorces his wife except for unchastity, makes her an adulteress, and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.

Cohabitation a situation in which people live together, committing fornication. Therefore it is an immoral practice which constitutes a grave sin. Polygamy also violates God's original design.

Any act or omission that harms or prevent the two ends of marriage is morally illicit and contrary to Sacramento and to the dignity and good of the spouses. They are an illegal form of birth control through contraception:

Humana Vitae Encyclical Letter, 14: In accordance with these fundamental principles of human and Christian vision of marriage, we must once again declared to be absolutely excluded as licit means to regulate births, the direct interruption of the generative process already begun, and especially the directly willed and procured abortion , even for therapeutic reasons.

Equally to be excluded, as the Magisterium of the Church has frequently declared , direct sterilization, whether perpetual or temporary, whether of man and woman ; excluded is every action which, either in anticipation of the conjugal act, or in its accomplishment, or in the development of its natural consequences, proposes, as an end or a means, to render procreation impossible.

The Church considers it lawful use of birth control, when there are serious causes (such as extreme poverty), methods that make use of infertile periods in women.

The use of contraceptives also poses a risk to the dignity and the essence of conjugal love:

Humana Vitae Encyclical Letter, 17: straight men can still be convinced of the consistency of the doctrine of the Church in this field if reflect on the consequences of methods of artificial birth control. Consider, first of all, easy and comprehensive way would be opened to conjugal infidelity and the general lowering of morality. No experience is needed to understand the human weakness and to understand that men, especially young, so vulnerable at this point they need encouragement to be faithful to the moral law y no se les debe ofrecer cualquier medio fácil para burlar su observancia.

Podría también temerse que el hombre, habituándose al uso de las prácticas anticonceptivas, acabase por perder el respeto a la mujer y, sin preocuparse más de su equilibrio físico y psicológico, llegase a considerarla como simple instrumento de goce egoístico y no como a compañera, respetada y amada.

Todo acto dentro de la relación conyugal que impida directamente la procreación, consumado el acto, también es considerado como intínsicamente inmoral, well, a practice known as "coitus interruptus " or anal sex, which prevents fertility coming exclusively to the obtaining of sexual pleasure. Every act must remain open to life.

2377 practiced within the family, these techniques [homologous artificial insemination and fertilization] are perhaps less reprehensible, yet remain morally unacceptable. dissociate the sexual act from the procreative act . The founding of the existence of the child is no longer an act by which two people find each other, but that "entrusts the life and identity of the embryo into the power of doctors and biologists and establishes the domination of technology over the origin and destiny of the human person. Such a relationship of domination is in itself contrary to the dignity and equality that must be common to parents and children '(cf CDF, instr. "Donum Vitae 82). "The procreation is deprived of its proper perfection, from the moral standpoint, when it is desired as the fruit of the conjugal act, that is, the specific act of the union of the spouses ... only respect for the connection between the meanings of the conjugal act and respect for the unity of the human being make possible procreation in conformity with the dignity of the person ' (CDF, \u200b\u200binstr. "Donum Vitae" 2, 4).

no moral fault is not the situation of involuntary infertility of either spouse, even if one is aware of it on his person, and hides his partner, is a cause of nullity of marriage (marriage never consummated). The spouses in this situation, puedn contribute greatly to the good of humanity:

2379 The Gospel shows that physical sterility is not an absolute evil. Spouses who, after exhausting legitimate medicine, suffering from infertility, should be associated with the Cross of the Lord, source of all spiritual fecundity. can express their generosity by adopting abandoned children or performing services dedicated to the benefit of others.

Thus, spouses are fruitful in the love of neighbor.

also constitutes a failure when the spouse is your partner as a means of obtaining pleasure, damaging the unitive purpose.

Children are not a right of spouses but a gift from God. The child does have rights, as the fruit of love is born of their parents.

-Divine Motherhood of Mary was the first Marian dogma, promulgated in Ephesus in 430 AD At that time it was said it was believed from the origins of Christianity Mary had given birth to the Living God, second person of the Trinity, Emmanuel, or God with us.

"Even with all this, most Protestants deny this great truth revealed very clearly in the scriptures, but they have not admitted any Marian dogma would not this be an exception.

Theotokos Mother of God means in Greek.

Mary is true Mother, as she was actively involved the formation of the human nature of Christ, in the same way that all mothers contribute to the formation of the fruit of her womb. Mother Mary is true because Jesus is true man.

-In this short article seeks to biblical and historical bases of the doctrine of the Theotokos, perhaps the most beautiful doctrine of all the Marian dogmas, the power to be the Mother of God, is the ultimate dignity of a being human can achieve, and that was precisely the will of God, born of a virgin, to be one like us, born as a child-God, so anyone who denies the dogma of the Divine Motherhood is denying the Incarnation of the Word they are both intimately linked.

In the development of this dogma will touch the following points:

1.-THE CATHOLIC DOCTRINE ON THE MOTHER OF GOD. 2.-
biblical foundation. FATHERS FOUNDATION

3.-4.-objection.

1-CATHOLIC DOCTRINE ON THE MOTHER OF GOD:
The Magisterium has consistently held that this dogma unanimous and continuous. Council of Ephesus


At this council in 431 solemnly defined so there was no doubt: "If anyone does not confess that Emmanuel (Christ) is truly God, and therefore the Blessed Virgin is the Mother of God, because Parian in the flesh the Word of God made flesh, let him be accursed"

deny that Mary is Mother of God is to deny that the Word became flesh (denying the Incarnation of God the Son).

Background of the controversy over the divine motherhood of Mary:

Nestorius errors

In the V century, Nestorius, Patriarch of Constantinople asserted the following errors:

* That there are two different persons Jesus, divine and human. * Your
two natures were not united.
* Therefore, Mary is the Mother of God as it is only the Mother of Jesus the man.
* Jesus was born of Mary just as a man and later "took" the divine, and therefore we say that Jesus is God.

see that these errors of Nestorius, denying that Mary is the Mother of God, also deny that Jesus was truly a divine person assumed a human nature.

doctrine concerning Mary is totally linked to the doctrine concerning Christ. Confuse the other one is confused. When the Church defends the divine maternity of Mary is defending the truth that his son, Jesus Christ is a Person divine. In this battle

doctrinal, St. Cyril, Bishop of Alexandria, played an important role in clarifying the position of our faith against the heresy of Nestorius. In 430, Pope Celestine I in a council at Rome, condemned the doctrine of Nestorius and commissioned S. Cyril to initiate a series of matches where you present the truth. Let

says the Council of Ephesus on this:

Of the Incarnation l

[The Bill II St. Cyril of Alexandria to Nestorius, read and approved at the meeting I]

Well, do not say that nature of the Word, transformed, became flesh, but also that is transmuted into the whole man, composed of soul and body, but rather that, having joined them the Word, as hypostasis or person, the flesh animated rational soul, became man so ineffable and incomprehensible and was called son man, not only will or complacency, but neither the assumption of a single person, and that the natures which come together in true unity are different, but both is one Christ and Son, not as if the difference of natures was destroyed by the union, but because the divinity and humanity are rather for us one Lord and Christ and Son by competition ineffable and mysterious unity ... Because no one was born first common man, of the Blessed Virgin, then the Word descended upon him, but, united from the womb, is said to be subjected to carnal birth, and who endorses the birth of the flesh ... In this way [the Fathers] had no objection to calling God mother of the Blessed Virgin.

"From the beginning the Church teaches that in Christ there is only one person, second person of the Holy Trinity. Mary is not only mother nature, the body but also the person who is God from all eternity. When Mary gave birth to Jesus, gave birth at the time who from all eternity was God. Just as any human mother is not only the mother of human body but the person, and Mary gave birth to a person, Jesus Christ, who is both God and man, then she is the Mother of God "-Council of Ephesus

Can. 1. If anyone does not confess that God is as truly Emmanuel, and that therefore the holy Virgin is the Mother of God (as carnally gave birth to the Word of God made flesh), let him be accursed.

To celebrate the proclamation of Ephesus, Parent, accompanied by crowds of the city around them carrying flaming torches, made a huge procession chanting "Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen. The Theotokos is represented and invoked as queen and mistress to be Mother of the King and Lord.

"After that council there was an explosion of Marian devotion, and built numerous churches dedicated to the Mother of God. Between them stands the Basilica of Saint Mary Major here in Rome. The doctrine concerning Mary, Mother of God, was reconfirmed at the Council of Chalcedon (451), in which Christ was declared "true God and true man (...) born for us and for our salvation from Mary, Virgin Mother of God in his humanity "(DS 301)." -Benedict XVI

Motherhood of Mary was also affirmed by other councils universal, as the Council of Chalcedon (451) and the second of Constantinople (553).

Council of Chalcedon, 451 ecumenical
IV (against the Monophysite)

Definition of the two natures of Christ

Following therefore the holy Fathers, all with one voice teach that is to confess one and the same Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, the same perfect in divinity and the same perfect in humanity, truly God and truly man the same rational soul and body, consubstantial with the Father as regards divinity, and the same consubstantial with us according to humanity, like us in all things, except sin [Heb. 4, 15], begotten of Father before all ages as to the divinity, and the same, in recent days, for us and for our salvation, born of the Virgin Mary, Mother of God, about humanity, which has to recognize one and the same Lord Christ only begotten Son of two natures, without confusion, without change, without division, without separation, by no means erased the difference in nature because of the union, but maintaining, rather, each property and nature exist for one person and one hypostasis, not parted or divided into two persons, but one and the same Son only begotten, God the Word, Lord Jesus Christ, as of old He taught us about the prophets and Jesus himself, and has handed us the Symbol of Fathers [v. 54 and 86].

So after that with full certainty and correctness in all its aspects was written for us this formula, defined the holy and ecumenical council that no one shall be lawful for other faiths, or even write or compose, or feel, or teach others.

JUAN II, 533-535

About "One of the Trinity has suffered" and the BVM, Mother of God
[From 3 Olim quidem letter to the senators of Constantinople, March 534]

As for the glorious holy Virgin Mary, properly taught be confessed by the Catholics as their own and truly born of God and Mother of God the Word, incarnate it. Because really own himself, played in recent times, deigned to be born of the holy and glorious Virgin Mary. So, since it itself and truly became incarnate and was born the Son of God, we confess that own and truly be the mother of God incarnate, born of her, and themselves first, lest they believe the Lord Jesus received honor or grace the name of God, as he felt the fool Nestorius, and really after is not created which took the flesh of the Virgin only in appearance or in any way not true, as stated the wicked Eutyches.

Second Council of Constantinople, 553
Can. 2. If anyone does not confess that there are two births of God the Word, one of the Father before all ages, timeless and incorporeal, the other in the last days, when he himself came down from heaven and was incarnate of the holy and glorious mother of God and ever virgin Mary, and born of her, that this is anathema.

-To finish this point only a curiosity, I have quoted these documents can be viewed as the Church's faith was considered to Mary ever Virgin, as we clearly see this is further proof that the Marian dogmas have always been in the Church even though they were not considered as such, the dogma of Mary's virginity was not defined until well after the Second Council of Constantinople and still is regarded as ever virgin. Marian dogmas are all linked together so that they repel one has to reject everyone.


2.-BIBLE BASIS:
"Before entering the biblical foundation of the dogma I should explain the concept of" person "and" Nature "and the differences between these two concepts in order to understand much better subsequently presented biblical foundation.

After the controversies of the early centuries of the being of Christ, to express the mystery of the God-Man, the Church has used the words that translate into Castilian by "nature" and "person." Are not synonymous: designating really distinct principles, but in fact there is no human nature without being equipped with "person" or person (human) where no (human) nature. Our language reflects very accurately the distinction, confirming that there is an artificially manufactured subtlety to explain something esoteric or intractable. In effect, is not the same question with the word "why" with the word "who."

"You, what are you?

The answer may be:
"I am a man. Ie I am an individual of the human species, I have a human nature, I'm human.

And now a different question:

"You, who are you?
A fair response would be:

"I am Peter. That is, in fact "I" am not primarily a "what, am a" who "I am not something, I am somebody. Rather, "I have" a "nature" and "am" a "person."

relevant metaphysical considerations, could severely complicate our discourse, but it's easy understand that it is not a "what" than a "who" is not the same as what we call "nature", that what we call "person." This distinction is absolutely necessary to understand that it is absurd or impossible for human nature can be owned by a person not human.

The person is the subject required of any individual human nature. It is unthinkable otherwise. But it is unthinkable, as we suggested in the Revelation that God can create a human nature so that the "I" of this nature, ie the individual who has and maintains, is a divine "I", that is, one of the Persons of the Holy Trinidad. This is a truly unfathomable mystery. We could not imagine that God - the one God, Creator and transcendent - and love could do such a thing, but once known, is not opposed to reason. Repugnant, if nature and person were synonymous terms. Contradiction would be that human nature was both divine and vice versa. But it is a divine person, without ceasing to be God, ie, while possessing the divine nature, come to take possession of human nature to the extent that the same is made the subject of humanity.

The Catholic faith teaches that God, while human nature formed within immaculate Mary, became subject of man conceived in Mary by the Holy Ghost. So, from the moment the Virgenla of the Word. The Word - God eternal - mysteriously, becomes man, one of our own species, one with a nature like ours (except sin), but with a unique singularity: that man is the Word. The "I" of this man, Jesus is the divine "I" of the Word. said "fiat", The Word could say, "this man I am." Jesus, begotten by the Holy Ghost, is true man because he has a real and fully human nature. It is true God, because the person who supports this kind is none other than

The person is not the body or the soul or body and soul together. Body and soul make up the human nature make a man perfect and complete. But that person is more than perfect man is subject irreducible, independent, autonomous from any other, of which preach the generation, conception, birth, descent. In this sense, the "subject" of Jesus or, more accurately, the "subject" called Jesus son of Mary, is truly the Word.

In Christ, therefore no human person, which does not mean that human nature is perfect: it has all the perfections that have or may have any human nature. It is also held to date, enlivened by a person, with the particularity that this is the second of the Holy Trinity. Mary gave birth by the Holy Spirit to a true man he was, from the first moment of its existence, the true God.

That Mary is the Mother of Jesus the man, no doubt, for the simple and compelling reason that gives everything a mother gives her child. But we must add at once: the "who" Jesus is the Second Person of the Trinity. However, the real mother of the child are complete, ie, the nature and person. It is logical because person and nature are different realities, but not separable. Hence, fair and truly call Mary Mother of God, for having conceived the human nature of Jesus, whose person is divine. Let us say: Maria de Jesus - namely, God the Son - everything a mother gives her child. She is therefore no doubt and a sense of self, Mother of God the Son.

This explanation fits well with the development of Catholic dogma, defined by the Church at the Council of Ephesus (year 431) against the errors of Nestorius: "The Blessed Virgin is the Mother of God, then gave birth to the Word of carnally God made flesh. " The Council of Chalcedon taught that Christ was "born of the Virgin Mary, Mother of God as humanity"

Once I understood this is already possible to address the biblical quotations that support this doctrine. Perhaps the clearest quote is this:

Why was I given this to me, the mother of my Lord should come to me? Luke 1:43

In Greek it is:
και ποθεν μοι τουτο ινα ελθη η μητηρ του κυριου μου προς εμε

Luke 1:43 Here we see the word Mr Kirios Señor, es un título único de Dios, en otros lugares de las escrituras se usa y siempre para referirse a Dios:

14tirisai her immaculate anepilimpton commandment to the surface of our Lord Jesus Christ

15th kairois at its own δειξει ο μακαριος και μονος δυναστης ο βασιλευς των βασιλευοντων και κυριος των κυριευοντων 1Tim 6:14-15

That is to say:

14 to keep the commandment without stain or reproach until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ,

15 which at the time by the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of Lords, 1 Tim 6:14-15

see as Christ is the Lord of Lords, a title given to God in the Old Testament, Christ is Lord, and Luke 1:43 tells us that Mary is the Mother of God and as the Lord is God, Mary is the Mother of God.

28απεκριθη θωμας και ειπεν αυτω ο κυριος μου και ο θεος μου John 20:28

Here we show how Thomas calls Christ Lord and God, and Christ is truly God and the Lord, the title of Lord always applied to God, so in this text is proved that that it was the Lord of Elizabeth, Thomas Lord himself that is true God and if Isabel calls Mary Mother of the Lord is calling the Mother of God, for the Lord is God according to John 20:28.

different verses in the Gospels is called Mary Mother of Jesus and know that Jesus is God so called mother of Jesus is to call her Mother of God, also in deeds is called the mother of Jesus: 1:14

All they continued with one accord in prayer and supplication with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and their hermanos.Hechos 1:14 1:18

Birth Jesus Christ came about: His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit. Mateo1: 18

1:16 and Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus who is called Christ Matthew 1:16

De Maria was born on Christ according to Matthew 16, therefore it can be Mary's mother of Christ, who is God.

2:11 And as he entered the house they saw the child with Mary his mother, and fell down and worshiped him: and opening their treasures, they offered him gifts: gold, frankincense and

mirra.Mateo 1:31 2:11 And now you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and shalt call his name JESUS. Luke 1:31
Since the AT is predicted this, that God Himself will be born of a woman, the eternal and immutable Emmanuel, born of a Virgin:

7:14 Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: Behold a virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. Isaiah 7:14

This prophecy was fulfilled in the NT so we detailed what the evangelist St. Matthew

1:23 Behold, a virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shalt call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is God with us. Matthew 1:23

So we can say that Mary is the mother of Emmanuel or "God with us." I wish to highlight something important, Emanuel title is unique in Scripture, is actually used very rarely and always refers to God, so we see in the OT is called Emmanuel:

8:8 and pass through Judah, flood and pass through, and come to the throat, and spreading its wings fill the breadth of thy land, O Immanuel. Isaiah 8:8

Clearly in this verse speaks of the land belonging to Yahvhe to God, Emmanuel, this is curious because the name Emmanuel mean here that the prophet is testifying to their existence, and to appoint him 7:14 tells us it will play and a woman is your mother. Because this is a test of how the eternal God, Emmanuel, was made flesh and born of the Virgin Mary as no divinity but by his humanity, but being a divine person and as such, Mary is the mother of that person.

At the birth of Christ, one involving the Holy Spirit and the Blessed Virgin Mary, there is no intervention by man, that is why the more reason Mary is the mother of God, for speaking at his birth:

1: 13 who were born not of blood nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

1:14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us (and we beheld his glory, glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and really. John 1:13-14

Christ was made flesh, by God not any man, the will of God, was to join the Holy Spirit with Mary: 1:35

the angel answered and said, The Spirit Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you: therefore also that holy thing born will be called the Son of God.

Luke 1:35 and Luke see also called the Son of God, and do well in the Scriptures we find that call Christ the son of Mary:

6:3 Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, brother James and Joses and Judas and Simon? Did not are also his sisters here with us? And they took offense at him. Mark 6:3 Then we

that Christ is the Son of God, and also the son of Mary, therefore Mary is the mother of Christ who is God, Mother of God or the second person of the Trinity.


3.-BASIS FATHERS:

Los Padres closer to the teaching of the Apostles, as St. Ignatius of Antioch (+ 107), speak of the divine motherhood of Mary. Notably St. Justin (+ 165), St. Irenaeus (+ 202), Tertullian (+ 220 / 230), San Hipólito (+ 235). Origen is the first which gives us the happy news formula "Theotokos" (= Mother of God), which are then in such important authors as St. Athanasius, St. Didymus, Gregory of Nyssa, St. Cyril of Jerusalem, St. Epiphanius of Salamis, St. John Damascene. The Latin equivalent is in St. Ambrose of Milan, St. Jerome and others. Here are some quotes

let us clear this doctrine:

Our God, Jesus Christ, was conceived by Mary according to God's plan: the seed of David, is true, but the Holy Spirit. He was born and baptized in a presentation that could purify the water. "(Ignatius of Antioch, Letter to the Ephesians 18.2)
Interesting this letter St. Ignatius of Antioch, disciple of St. John clearly states that God was conceived by Mary. San Ignacio is not clearly uses the term Mother of God but his teaching is very clear in saying God was conceived by Mary. This was written about 106 AD which shows that the doctrine of the divine motherhood of Mary was already in the early Christian communities.

"The Virgin Mary is obedient to his word, received from an angel of good news that God was going to have." (Irenaeus, Against Heresies 5,19,1)

St. Irenaeus confirms 50 years after this teaching of St. Irenaeus, Mary tube to God in her womb. It is therefore a very enlightening testimony, remember St. Irenaeus was a disciple of St. Polycarp who was a disciple of St. John, is so steeped in apostolic doctrine.

"This Virgin became a mother holding her virginity, and while still a virgin holding a baby in her womb, and the slave and the work of his wisdom became the Mother of God." (St. Ephrem, "Songs of Praise 1.20)

" After that, we recognize the resurrection of the dead, of which our Lord Jesus Christ was the firstborn, who was not a body in appearance but in fact, derived from MOTHER OF GOD. "(Alexander of Alexandria Letters, 12) (Alexander of Alexandria, Letters 12).

"Accordingly, the Son of God became Son of man, so that the children of man, ie Adam, might become children of God. The Word begotten of the Father from above, ineffable inexplicable, incomprehensible and ever, it is He who is born in time here below, of the Virgin Mary, Mother of God "

(The" big "Athanasius, Incarnation of the Word of God, 8)

" Many, Mi dear, are the true witnesses of Christ. The Father bears witness from heaven to his Son. The Holy Spirit bears witness, coming down the body in the form of a dove. The Archangel Gabriel bears witness, a bearer of Mary. The Virgin Mother God is my witness "( The "big" Cyril of Jerusalem, Catechetical Lectures, 10:19)

"If someone does not agree that Mary is the Mother of God, he disagrees with the Divine." (Gregory of Nazianz, Letters 101)

"He assumed human flesh and soul, perfect in the hand of the Father and incarnate among us, not in appearance but in truth, but man reshaped itself to perfection same, of Mary, Mother of God by the Holy Spirit. " ((Epiphanius of Salamis, The healthy man anchored 75)

"When, therefore, they ask," Is Mary the Mother of man or Mother of God? "Respond" both "mother of man, because he was a man who was in the womb of Mary and who left there, and Mother of God, because God was in the man who is born "(Theodore of Mopsuestia, La Encarnación 15)

As in age of Mary, Mother of God, who had reigned from Adam to her time found, when he approached her and threw his forces against the fruit of her virginity as against a rock, which was shattered to pieces on it, so that every soul that passes through this life in the flesh under the protection of virginity, the strength of death is a way broken and void, not to find the places in which they may fix his sting.

Gregory of Nyssa , virginity, 14 (AD 370), in NPNF2, V :359-360

"Come, then, Mary's life to be like were virginity itself, set in a portrait, which, like a mirror, reflecting the emergence of chastity and the form of virtue. From this you can take your life pattern, showing, for example, clear rules of virtue which must be corrected, in order, and to be fast. The first thing that lights burning in learning is the greatness of the master. What is greater than the Mother of God? "

Ambrosio, virginity, II: 6 (CAD 378), in NPNF2, X: 374

"And what you say, O heretic, whoever he is, who deny God born of the Virgin Mary the Mother of our Lord Jesus Christ should not be called Theotokos, that is, Mother of God, but Christotocos, ie, only the Mother of Christ, not God. For one, ie the above takes time. And this argument completely absurd that you think that the birth of God can be understood by the carnal mind, and fancy that the mystery of His Majesty can be explained by human reasoning, we will, if God permits, say something later. In the meantime we are going to demonstrate divine testimony that Christ is God, and that Mary is the Mother of God. "John Cassian, The Incarnation of Christ, II: 2 (AD 430), in NPNF2, XI: 556

"But as the Virgin Mary gave birth after the flesh of God personally united to the flesh, therefore we can say it is Theotokos, not as if the nature of the word had its beginning to be meat, because it was in the beginning, and the Word was God and the Word was with God .... but, as we said before, because personally united human nature itself ... "

Cyril of Alexandria, Nestorius, Epistle 17:11 (AD 430), the CCC, 306

"Then Jesus was at once in all things and above all things and dwelt in the bosom of Holy Mother of God, but in it for the power incarnation. "

John Damascene, Source of Knowledge, III: 7 (AD 743), in NPNF2, IX: 51


4.-Objection:

1 .-) Who would think that Mary is the Mother of God. Mother of God, if God is eternal and Mary. God always existed, and Mary. How will be Mary Mother of God, God is before Mary? Does the child may be older than your mother? What will be Mary Mother of God, God is eternal and Mary is not eternal? Children can not be older than her mother. The mother can not be later than

son .. However, it is true that Mary is the Mother of God. Why? Because God is incarnate in the womb of Mary. Jesus is God made man. Mary is the Mother of Jesus, and if Jesus is God, Mary is the Mother of the Man who is God. If what is born of Mary is God, Mary is the Mother of God. As Mary Mother of Jesus and be Jesus-God, Mary the Mother of God we call, because she is mother of a man who at the same time is God.

Here's an example: If a man do mayor, his mother is the mother of the mayor. The mother does not give the mayor, but as the mother of this man and this man do mayor, his mother, the mother of the mayor, although she did not give the mayor. Same thing. Mary is the Mother of this Man who is God. To be the Mother of Jesus, God, Mary is the Mother of God. Although she did not give the Divine. But is the Mother of Jesus, who is Man and God at the same time. Therefore, Mary is the Mother of God.

found in the dictionary that "mother" is the woman who gives birth. It is said that she gave birth mother. If we accept that Mary is the mother of Jesus and that He is God, then Mary is the Mother of God.

should not be confused between time and eternity. Mary, obviously, was not mother of the Son eternally. She begins to be the Mother of God as the Eternal Son wanted to enter the time and become a man like us. To become a man wanted to have a mother. Galatians

4:4: "when the fullness of time God sent forth his Son, born of woman."

God became man without ceasing to be God, therefore Mary is the mother of Jesus, God and true man. "

John 1, 13:" He who was born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but born of God. "

St. Paul tells us that was born of Mary, and John tells us that God was born. Therefore the child born is of God and Mary and how it gave light, then gave birth to God.

Then Mary is the Mother of God, not because I have begotten in eternity, but because it engendered 2000 years ago in the Incarnation. God did not need a mother but wanted to have to approach us with infinite love. God is the only one who could choose his mother and, to the consternation of some and joy of others, chose the Blessed Virgin Mary who is and will always be the Mother of God.



As we said before, Emmanuel God is eternal, so much so that already existed in the Old Testament:



8:8 and pass through Judah, overflow and pass forward, and come to the throat, and extending his wings shall fill the breadth of thy land, O Immanuel. Isaiah 8:8



But this Emmanuel became incarnate and became man, born of a virgin:



7:14 Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: Behold a virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.

Isaiah 7:14 Therefore

Emmanuel, the eternal, if you are able to incarnate and born of a virgin.



2 .-) Mary is the Mother of God as it is only the Mother of Jesus the man.

Jesus was born of Mary just as a man and later "took" the divine, and therefore we say that Jesus is God.



This is the error of Nestorius, in the V century already walked preaching, which is why the Church tube meet to declare the dogma Divine Maternity of Mary.



see that these errors of Nestorius, denying that Mary is the Mother of God, also deny that Jesus was a divine person.



The doctrine concerning Mary is totally linked to the doctrine concerning Christ. Confuse the other one is confused. When the Church defends the divine maternity of Mary is defending the truth that his son, Jesus Christ is a divine person.



Mary is the Mother of God. This is the largest of all the Marian dogmas, and the root and foundation of the singular dignity of the Virgin Mary.



The child born was God, this is so because it was worshiped, and Scripture gives us proof:



1:6 And again, when you enter the firstborn into the world, he said: Worship him all the angels of God. Hebrews 1:6



2:11 And as he entered the house they saw the child with Mary his mother, and fell down and worshiped him: and opening their treasures, they offered him gifts: gold, frankincense and myrrh. Matthew 2:11



Both men worshiped angels as Christ, and Scripture teaches that God loves only so we can tell the child that was God.



3.-And Mary is the Mother of the Blessed Trinidad. That is what is stated by saying the mother of God.



así.María Actually this is not the mother of the second person of the Holy Trinity, when one speaks of the Trinity, speaking to 3 people, Mary is the mother of a single person, the second, but man more related to the Trinity.



Mary is the daughter of the Father, so that she is the daughter of God. Mary is the wife of the Spirit, so is the wife of God. And, of course, Mary is the mother of Jesus to Mary is the Mother of God.



Father's Daughter:



3:2 Beloved, now we are children of God, and not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that when he appears we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is. 1 John 3:2



Mother of the Son:



1:31 And now, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son and call his name JESUS. Luke 1:31



Wife of the Holy Spirit: 1:35



the angel answered and said: The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also holy one to be born will be called the Son of God Luke 1:35



CONCLUSION:



With this brief article has given enough biblical and historical evidence why Catholics call Mary Mother of God because it is truly the mother of the Second Person of the Trinity, and we agree with the Scriptures and with the early Christians believe this. Hope has been useful and serve to defend this doctrinal truth in his day the Fathers made against those who refused.



God Bless!

INTRODUCTION TO

MARIOLOGY EDITIONS RIALP Ninth revised edition. SA MADRID

Futanari Kokoro Tenshin Free

The Holy Spirit sanctifies and leads not only to the people of God through the sacraments and the ministries and enriches it with virtues, but by distributing to each as he wills (1 Cor. 12:11), distributed among the faithful because of all kinds, special even with the available and ready to undertake various tasks and profitable trades for a broader construction of the Church. These charisms, whether the extraordinary as the simplest and most common because they are very happy and useful to the needs of the Church, must be received with thanksgiving and consolation. (Vatican Council II, Const. On the Church, Cap. 2 No.12)

The word CARISMA means free gift and comes from the Greek word "grace" that means GRACE

The charisms are a personal gift, which NO MEANS NO MERIT BY THE PERSON but are a manifestation FREE AND FREE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT IN THE BELIEVER through it and beyond their abilities or skills , having previously received the gift of the Spirit, and PURPOSE IS BUILDING THE BODY OF CHRIST.

** We can therefore say that the gifts are for others not for the person who receives Unlike gifts that are for the sanctification of the individual

**
Charisms indicate no sanctity in the person.

St. Paul advises us to aspire to the charisma and shows that none of them would be important not charity, it is therefore that we must aim above all (1 Cor 12:27, 13 and 14:1 ) also lists 9 charisms us in his First Epistle to the Corinthians:

** FE: When we watch the Holy Spirit to show others what Jesus taught us we need is faith to believe in the gifts of the Spirit and the Lord is saying through them.

** WORD OF WISDOM: is a revelation to the believer's spirit by which it means something special from God, or what his will in a certain thing or situation is addressed if we apply ourselves to our life or we present to others if it is for them.

** WORD OF KNOWLEDGE: is being so close to Jesus and knowing him so well that when we are in a situation we know whether that comes from him, ie to know the likes of Jesus.

DISCERNMENT OF SPIRITS **: lets us know if something comes from God, give the human spirit or the enemy must be very pure charisma and be stripped of all personal idea premeditated or influenced by any situation or idea.

** PROPHECY: speak the same word of God to others: It is a very strong impulse of the Lord to give others a message as if Christ himself were speaking. To be sure that a prophecy is real there must be obedience and acceptance, purity of motive (do not mix human interests) and humility.

** SPEAKING IN TONGUES: strong impulse to proclaim the Lord's message through tongues Prayer is a gift that is used to building, sometimes serves to reinforce our requests to God.

** INTERPRETATION OF TONGUES: is a gift of the Lord by which we can interpret what another brother prays in tongues, to community building.

** HEALTH: It is that God uses a person as his instrument to cure a disease or disorder of another person, applying this power, which manifests as physical healing, spiritual or release .

** MIRACLES: Is feeling to such a degree the power of Jesus, have such confidence that he wants to act at that moment, you can ask for something that is against natural laws.

These charisms can be two divisions:

• THE GIFT OF POWER: They ultimately a revelation of God that drives a person to act, but God's power manifested more openly. They are mainly the gifts of healing and works miracles.

• THE GIFT OF REVELATION AND EDUCATION: are intimately linked to the words of John the Baptist "He must increase and I must decrease" (Jn 3, 30). As we die to ourselves, as the carnal man disappears, the spiritual senses awake and grow, we understand Christ and He can increasingly act in us and through us. Among them are: The word of wisdom, word of knowledge, discernment, Prophecy and Tongues, the latter discussed below.
