4. EVER VIRGIN MARY : M. M. NINAN<br />
4<br />
EVER VIRGIN MARY<br />
"This truth, showing Jesus' divine origin, was immediately<br />
grasped by the first Christians for its important significance and<br />
included among the key affirmations <strong>of</strong> their faith. Son <strong>of</strong> Joseph<br />
according to the law, Jesus in fact, by an extraordinary<br />
intervention <strong>of</strong> the Holy Spirit, was in his humanity only the son<br />
<strong>of</strong> Mary, since he was born without the intervention <strong>of</strong> man.<br />
Mary's virginity thus acquires a unique value and casts new light<br />
on the birth <strong>of</strong> Jesus and on the mystery <strong>of</strong> his sonship, since the<br />
virginal generation is the sign that Jesus has God himself as his<br />
Father" (Pope John)<br />
