Mary was conceived without original sin (She is the Immaculate Conception).
Mary was told by the Archangel Gabriel that she was to be the mother of Jesus
(The Annunciation).
Mary gave birth to Jesus, the Son of God at Christmas (The Nativity).
When Mary died, she was immediately taken to heaven (The Assumption).
Roman Catholic AnswerThere are four defined dogmas of the Church which have been infallibly defined for belief by all faithful Christians:1) Mary is the Mother of God
2) Mary was Immaculately Conceived (which means that she was conceived in her mother's womb without sin.
3) The Assumption, at the completion of her life on earth God assumed her into heaven, body and soul.
4) That throughout her entire life, before, during, and after the birth of Our Blessed Savior, she remained a virgin: her perpetual virginity.
For a complete explication of all of these dogmas, you can pick up any theology text such as Fundamentals of Catholic Dogma by Ludwig Ott, Tan Books and Publishers, Inc. 1974 or the book,A Biblical Defense of Catholicism, by Dave Armstrong, Sophia Institute Press, © 2003 or look in the Catechism of the Catholic Church.
