Video- Father Kramer: Our Lady- Mediatrix of All Graces
Roman Pontiffs on Mary as Mediatrix:
Treasury of All Good Things
1. “God has committed to her the treasury of all good things, in
order that everyone may know that through her are obtained every hope,
every grace, and all salvation. For this is his will, that we obtain
everything through Mary.” and “God has committed to the Blessed Virgin
Mary the treasury of all good things in order that everyone may know
that through her are obtained every hope, every grace and all
salvation.” (Pius IX: Encycl., Ubi primum, February 2, 1849.) — [p. 12,
number 12; p. 18, no. 38]
Only Through Thee
2. “O Virgin most holy, none abounds in the knowledge of God except
through thee; none, O Mother of God, obtains salvation except through
thee, none receives a gift from the throne of mercy except through
thee.” (Leo XIII: Encycl., Adiutricem populi, September 5, 1895.) — [p.
12, no. 13]
No One Goes to CHrist Except Through His Mother
3. “With equal truth it may be said that of the great treasury of all
graces given to us by Our Lord—for grace and truth came by Jesus
Christ—nothing comes to us except through Mary’s mediation, for such is
God’s Will. Thus, as no man goes to the Father but by the Son, so no one
goes to Christ except through his mother.” (Leo XIII, Encycl., Octobri
mense, September 22, 1891.) — [pp. 13,14, no. 19]
With Mary and Through Mary
4. “If it is impossible to separate what God has united, it is also
certain that you cannot find Jesus except with Mary and through Mary.”
(St. Pius X: Allocution to the Franciscans, November 12, 1910.) — [p.
14, no. 20]
