Mary's sinlessness is referred to as her Immaculate Conception (conceived without sin). From Sacred Scripture we have at least two passages of the Bible that present the implicit seed of the revealed truth of Mary's Immaculate Conception.

Christ was conceived without sin. It was HE that was the 'Immaculate Conception'. No sin was transfered to Christ, as original sin is passed on by way of the mans seed. With Mary, being a virgin, and Christ being conceived of a virgin, He was born without sin.

Amen!

So was His mother.
