Nowhere in the Bible, does the Bible say it is the be all end all of Divine Revelation. In fact, it says that not everything Jesus did and taught is in the Bible. Yet, Jesus commanded the Apostles to teach all that He taught them. Jesus didn't write a book to spread His truths. He founded a (one) Church to do so. Historically, this was the Catholic Church. St. Paul refers to the Church (the only one in existence) as the "pillar and foundation of truth" in 1 Tim 3:15. Nowhere does the Bible refer to each individual, personally interpreting Scripture to be anywhere close to this.And if they jumped off a cliff I would not follow them.
The fetish for virginity came about after the biblical era. The phrase Virgin Mary does not appear in the scriptures...that is a red flag....it usually means some one wants you to believe a lie. The whole New Testament is there.....If Yahweh impregnated Miriam in an abnormal way, miraculous zapping, it would have been described that way....Ok beam Him in Scotty! Ok now beam Him out Scotty! And Miriam swore off sex with her husband because it was so dirty, nasty, and sinful, created by the devil to tempt men.........laughable theology at best.
Lies are hard to support. As I said once you tell one you spend your life tap dancing to explain it.
Tell us how you think this sequence happened, without Yahweh having sexual relations with Miriam.
Did He cast his seed into here like baseball pitcher? Is there a strike zone?
Did He manifest His seed in her?
For the pre-existing people….Did Yahweh shrink Yeshua to a seed or fetus and then throw Him in there?
Did Yeshua shrink Himself and manifest in her, which means He is His own father?
The only way for Yeshua to be the real Son of God is for things to go along the normal way.
But I would love to hear your explanation of it.
As far as Miriam not having sex with her husband or having children….of coarse the scriptures do not indicate that....but explain the reason why she would do that and what benefit it would be?
I don't know you at all, but from your post, you seem to think you have the responsibility to reinvent the wheel through your own personal interpretation of the Bible. Yet, the St. Peter warns against just such personal interpretation of Scripture in 2 Peter 1:20-21. And, really, since the Protestant Reformation, how has this approach worked? It has splintered Protestantism into literally thousands of man-made, doctrinally contradicting denominations. That cannot be the grounding and bullwark of the fullness of truth which Christ brought to mankind.
