Article 3: "HE WAS CONCEIVED BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, AND WAS BORN OF THE VIRGIN MARY"
By freeing some individuals from the earthly evils of hunger, injustice, illness and death,[274] Jesus performed messianic signs. Nevertheless he did not come to abolish all evils here below,[275] but to free men from the gravest slavery, sin, which thwarts them in their vocation as God's sons and causes all forms of human bondage.[276]
