Immaculate Conception

Catholics believe Mary was overshadowed by the Holy Spirit (Luke 1:35), and that Mary was a pure and holy "ark" fit to carry the Son of God. Just as the ark of the Lord back in Moses' day carried elements of the Old Covenant within, so Mary carried the Author of the New Covenant in her. The Immaculate Conception isn't a virgin birth. It is neither Biblical nor necessary. Catholics believe Mary was conceived in the normal way, but God made her immune from imputed or inherited sin. For as long as she has existed she has been free from sin. This allowed her to be the" second Eve" to give birth to the " second Adam" see  (1 Corinthians 15:45). Overshadowed by the Holy Spirit (Luke 1:35), Mary was a pure and holy "ark" fit to carry the Son of God. Just as the ark of the Lord in Moses' day carried elements of the Old covenant within, so Mary carried the Author of the New Covenant in her.

Mary needed a savior like everyone else (Luke 1:47).

I got the information from the websites listed below for you to read. Hopefully, they will make you more aware of the false teachings of the Catholic church.

Mary

The Mary in which Catholics worship is not the Mary of the Bible. Biblically, Mary was only human. God chose her to be a vessel to bring His beloved Son into the world. But Roman Catholics bow down to statues of Mary, exonerate and venerate her more than Christ Jesus.
In Exodus 20:4,5 God said, "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them..." Mary would never be a part of this! She was not there when Christ created the universe. Christ was God long before she was ever born. Bowing to Mary is a sin!
