Christ was born by the Spirit, of a virgin, that He may be called the Son of God. She had never know man. Isaiah prophesied that a virgin shall conceive and they shall call His name Immanuel (God with us). This prophesy fulfilled is proof that man was not involved in His birth. If man had...

Well if this true there was no need for the virgin birth, being born of the Spirit. So what do your teachers give as the reason for the virgin birth?

And what has that to do with the question I asked you?

All you have to do is explain why Christ was born of the Spirit, the virgin birth, and not born by the seed of man. If you can explain that biblically then I will believe you! Don't give me a theory from one of your teachers.

Man, I don't think I have ever seen anyone as confused as you are! If what you say is true, the virgin birth was not necessary! It would not have mattered if Christ was born of the seed of man with a sin nature. So I wonder why that happened?

The entire purpose of Christ being born of the Spirit was that He would not be fallen man with a sin nature as we are. And along comes Matthew with his heresy he learned from a false teacher!

But the fact remains, if Christ had a sin nature He too was fallen man and needed a Saviour. Whoever you are listening to has filled you with lies!

LOL! If Christ had been born with a sin nature He could not have been the Saviour of the world! He would Himself needed a Saviour.

That is correct! Joseph and Mary both came from the lineage of David. Christ was born of Mary in that line of lineage in the flesh but not of the seed of man.

The incarnation is Christ entering into a new realm of being! From Spirit to flesh. It was impossible for Christ to have a sin nature in that he was not born of the seed of man. He was born of the Spirit! How hard is that to understand? Adam and Eve brought the sin nature to man by committing...

If you ask most Christians, "what did Christ accomplish on the Cross" they will say He paid the sin debt of man that we can be saved. That is true, but it is much deeper than that, rd. On the Cross, Christ defeated sin! He destroyed the power that sin has over us if we place our faith in Him...

Christ became the Mediator between God and man by what He did on the Cross. The shedding of His Blood for man is the the New Covenant. That Covenant is between God and the Man, Christ. For man to enter into that Covenant he must come through the Blood of Christ. It is not the man of God...

@Webers_Home , the reason I ask you that is because the entire state of Christ's humanity is based on Matt. 1:18. " Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost." She...

So you are saying that Christ was born of the seed of David literally. So how was that possible in that day when she was a virgin?

I agree 100%, in order for Christ to pay for the sins of man, the perfect sacrifice for man, He had to be fully man, or He would not qualify as that perfect sacrifice for man. I also agree that it was possible for Christ to sin! He was born without a sin nature, but yet was tempted to sin with...

One more thing to help you understand what happened in the Garden of Eden, Matthew. Give this some serious thought and you will begin to understand. Adam and Eve were created to bring sons and daughters of God into this world in innocence and purity -- perfection! Through the sin of Adam and...

That post begs the question, why did God put that tree in the Garden making it possible for His creation to fall? The God given right of "free will" is why!!!!!!!!!!! God wants man to love and serve Him by his own free will, not a bunch of robots running around that have no choice. Everything...

@MatthewG We have some serious problems here in this post! Where on earth did you find this? I know you did not come up with this yourself! Adam and Eve were created with free choice but did not have a sin nature! They were created in the innocence of purity! They had no idea what sin was...

@MatthewG let me ask you this. If Mary was a virgin as the scripture says, how was it humanly possible for her to become pregnant? It was not by the natural process of sperm and egg, it was all the making of the Spirit of God. I can't explain to you how the Holy Spirit formed the flesh of...

If Christ had been born of the seed of Joseph, His step father, Christ would have been just like us. He would have been totally depraved, a slave of sin with no hope in this world, as we are. But Christ was formed in the woman by the Holy Spirit. Mary was just a vessel for Christ to be born...
