Dikandung Tanpa Noda
Pembuahan Tak Bernoda adalah, menurut dogma Gereja Katolik Roma, bahwa Bunda Maria pada saat ia terbentuk di dalam kandungan, ia merupakah buah kandungan tanpa noda ("macula" dalam Bahasa Latin) dari dosa asal apapun. Dogma ini kemudian menyebutkan bahwa dari saat pertama keberadaannya, ia dijaga oleh Tuhan dari segala kekurangan rahmat kudus yang merundung umat manusia, dan melainkan ia dipenuhi dengan rahmat ilahi.
