Summary/Abstract: It is worthwhile to meditate the contents hidden in this Marian dogma, for the Motherof God’s unique vocation gives light to all the people’s vocation. The Immaculate Conceptionreveals the following truths: relation between the eternal will of God (predestination)and the will of man (freedom); relation between the divine grace and human cooperation;connection between temporality and eternity. The article also underlines an ecumenicalaspect of the dogma’s contents. The author engages in polemics against the widespread(even among Catholics) opinion, according to which the Immaculate Conception shouldbe an expression of the sola gratia principle.
