Jesus Christ...Born of a virgin

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css="" css_animation="none"]

A @Christadelphians Video: Jesus Christ was born of a virgin. This tells us several things about Jesus. For example, it tells us what the phrase "Son of God" means. Jesus Christ was born of a virgin, as we read in both the Gospels of Matthew and Luke. According to Luke 1:35 this is why Jesus is called the Son of God. Putting this another way, whenever Jesus is described as the Son of God we have a reference to the virgin birth. The fact that Jesus was born of a virgin shows that he has two sides to his nature. He is a descendant of human beings and he is descended from God. His human ancestry includes David, the great king of Old Testament times. It is important that Jesus is a descendant of David, because David was promised a descendant who would rull the world in an everlasting kingdom. The virgin birth is what makes Jesus the Son of God (luke 1:35). This tells us that God is the father of Jesus and that Jesus has no human father. It also tells us that Jesus is not God, and that the Holy Spirit is the power of God. Jesus was born through the action of the Holy Spirit. If the Holy Spirit is a separate person from the Father, then it is the Holy Spirit that is the Father of God, and not the Father. It only makes sense to say that the Holy Spirit is not a separate person, but is the power of God in action. This video is produced by the Gospel Online project which is arranged and supported by the Christadelphian community in the United Kingdom. # Summary This presentation provides an in-depth examination of the biblical account of Jesus Christ's virgin birth, highlighting its significance and the prophetic fulfillment of this pivotal event in Christian theology. ### Highlights The presentation explores the biblical descriptions of Jesus as the "Son of God," differentiating this from the general references to God's followers as "sons of God" or the "sons of God" in the Old Testament. 🔍 The presentation delves into the accounts of Jesus' conception and birth as recorded in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke, emphasizing the miraculous nature of the virgin birth and Mary's role as the chosen mother of the Messiah. 🔍 The presentation addresses common objections to the virgin birth, such as the suggestion that the accounts were later insertions, and the difficulty some have with the idea of God having a son, and provides a biblical response to these concerns. 🔍 The presentation highlights the significance of the virgin birth, explaining how it was necessary for Jesus to be both fully human and fully divine in order to fulfill his role as the sacrificial saviour and the "God with us" prophesied in the Old Testament. 🔍 The presentation concludes by emphasising the marvel and wonder of God's love in sending his "only begotten son" to save humanity, as described in the famous verse John 3:16. # Keywords - Christian theology - Virgin birth - Christology - Messianic prophecy [embedyt] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SsccFMNRu5U[/embedyt] #1 Our Main site...
