  1. Mary Lecture 9: Holy Spirit Mary’s role in Salvation Four Dogmas

  2. Typology • Where is Mary in Scripture? • Unity of Scripture • We must remember that the Bible is not just the New Testament. • The Bible must be read in its whole; the NT and the OT. • “The New Testament is hidden in the Old, the the Old Testament is revealed in the New.” • Prooftexting? • Catholics don’t simply find support for her Marian beliefs by finding isolated passages that seem to support the Church doctrines.

  3. Typology • Definition • The interpretive principle by which the Church reads the New Testament in light of the Old Testament. • Type • Anything in the Old Testament that points to the coming of Christ and His work in our redemption. • People, places, or events in the OT that prefigure, foreshadow, or prepare God’s people for salvation through the son of God. • Scriptural roots • Heb 8:5 = “[The Jerusalem priests] serve as a copy and shadow of the heavenly sanctuary.” • Rom 5:14 = “Yet death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those whose sins were not like the transgression of Adam, who was a type of the one who was to come.”

  4. Typology • Jesus’ use of typology • Mt 12:6 = Jesus explains that he is greater than the Temple. • Mt 12:41 = Jesus compares himself to Jonah. Jonah was saved from the belly of the whale after 3 days; Christ will rise from the dead after 3 days. • Mt 12:42 = Jesus is greater than Solomon. Solomon built the temple on the foundation stone; Christ built the Church on Peter, the “Rock.”

  5. Marian Typology • From the very beginning of Scripture we see the man and the woman. • Old Testament • Adam and Eve • Moses and the Ark • David and his Queen Mother • New Testament • New Adam and New Eve • New Moses and the New Ark • Christ, the true Son of David and Mary, the true Queen Mother • Eve and Mary • Eve = A virgin and undefiled, having conceived the word of the serpent, brought disobedience and death into the world. • Mary = A virgin and undefiled, received and conceived the word of the Angel Gabriel, gave birth to the Son of God, thus obedience and life entered the world.

  6. Objection • Why do I have to go to Mary when I can go directly to Jesus? • Fact of the matter: • Jesus does not come directly to us. • Jesus comes to us thru the Holy Spirit. • We do not go directly to Jesus. • We go to Jesus thru the Holy Spirit. • Holy Spirit • Enables us to: • Be united with Jesus; believe in Jesus; be united with the Father. • Scripture • Rom 8:9-12 • 1 Cor 12:3

  7. Holy Spirit in the OT • Creation = Gen 1:1-2 • Spirit of God overshadowed the waters. • Ark of the Covenant = Ex 40:34-38 • Exodus = Holy Spirit led Israelites out of Egypt in form of pillar of cloud. • Mt. Sinai = Leads them to Mt. Sinai - wrapped in cloud. • The Ark = God gave Moses clear instructions how to build the ark. The pillar of cloud filled the ark. • Temple = I Kings 8:10 • Solomon built Temple - cloud fills the Temple. • 586 BC = Babylonians destroy Jerusalem and Temple.

Tablets - Ten Commandments (words of God) Staff of Aaron - High Priest Holy Spirit in the NT • New Creation • Gen 1:1-2 • Luke 1:26-35 • New Ark of the Covenant • Mary’s womb contained Jesus: • True bread from heaven. • The Word of God in flesh. • The true High Priest
