I so agree. The Bible gives us all we need to know about the Saviour's incarnation. He would be born of a virgin, so not as the result of a man and woman coming intimately together. The Holy Spirit would bring this about. Arguing, as some do, about where His DNA came from, or suggesting that...

The Body and Blood of Christ The doctrine of the Incarnation stands at the center of the Christian faith. It is the mystery of the eternal Son of God taking real human flesh, becoming truly man while remaining truly God. Because of this, any teaching that distorts the nature of Christ’s...

How we inherit Adam’s guilt (and why it has nothing to do with DNA or blood) Sin is not a molecule. Holiness is not a chromosome. Adam’s guilt is covenantal, not biological. Scripture never teaches that sin is transmitted by: chromosomes blood chemistry DNA ovum sperm genetics Sin is not a...

This belief is built on false premises, bad biology, and worse Christology. It is nothing more than old Docetism and Gnosticism. Nothing, not one verse, word, letter or vowel in Scripture teaches this. Jesus was of the seed of David, and He could only be the seed of David through Mary...

Are you BLIND? If not, Read my post again. I mentioned Mt 1:20, Genesis 1:26-27, Col 1:16, Gen 32:24-30, John 17:5, John 8:56-58, Romans 5:12, Heb 11:26, and so on. You haven't refuted one single verse. As if I hadn't mentioned Chromosomes, but you need the whole sperm to fertilize the egg of...

By your theory Jesus was XY because he was given birth through Mary. From whom did Adam get his X chromosome?

This belief is built on false premises, bad biology, and worse Christology. It is nothing more than old Docetism and Gnosticism. Nothing, not one verse, word, letter or vowel in Scripture teaches this. Jesus was of the seed of David, and He could only be the seed of David through Mary. Men do...

Whose sperm was used for the ovum of Mary? Because Ovum is like a New York city and requires only the sperm which is like a San Francisco. When they are combined it becomes a human embryo which is like the New York City with electrical lines, water supply lines, roads, traffic signals, gas pipe...

Exactly, calling the Blessed Virgin Mary a “surrogate mother” is not an accurate description of what Scripture teaches about her role in the Incarnation. A surrogate carries a child for someone else. Mary did far more than simply “carry” Jesus. She conceived Him, carried Him in her womb, gave...

We feed upon Christ, but not in some crass, carnal way, but spiritually, by faith (c.f. 1 Cor. 3:1-3; Heb. 5:12-14). It doesn't. This is purely fanciful, driven by your faulty tradition. The woman in Genesis 3 is plainly Eve and there is not even a hint of 'immaculate conception.' Without...

The Old Testament is the New Testament concealed, and the New Testament is Old Testament revealed. Attributed to Augustine I think. Typology is an excellent way to understand scripture in both testaments. Can you see the scripture references I’m making in this thread Walter?

What I find to be convincing is the fact that God is not going to inhabit an unclean temple. In Luke 1, Mary is overshadowed by the Holy Spirit, mirroring how the Glory of the Lord filled the Old Testament Ark of the Covenant. 'The Church has reasoned that if God demanded an incorruptible, pure...

I see. You noticed the word “overshadow” is used in two different verses and believe there is a connection. Since the second reference is to Mary and the power of God Holy Spirit “overshadowing” her at the conception of Jesus, you think Mary is connected to the Ark of the covenant and the...

That’s right, Mary was already saved. Mary was saved from her Immaculate Conception, she was saved by God from Original Sin and all personal sin. She had to be free of all sin for the hypostatic union to take place of her flesh. Mary is the Ark of the New Covenant, God Incarnate was made flesh...

The Bible teaches that the Lord Jesus is fully Man and fully God. Of that there is (should be) no doubt. Mark 4:35-41 is maybe the simplest passage to establish that. His mother Mary was a sinner like the rest of us. Of that there is (should be) no doubt. Luke 1:46-47. 'and Mary said, "My...

I was asked for the scripture references, I missed one that ties it all together in Luke. “And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel.” Genesis 3:15 “The cherubim shall spread out their...

That’s because they show Mary little to no honour at all. They are so concerned about showing Mary too much honour, they don’t show her the proper honour she deserves. All generations of Catholics call her blessed however and we do so with the words scripture by saying the Rosary. The first...

Such is the Modalistic Monarchian creed also. So my question to you is, how are you not a participant in the Modalist Monarchian heresy? There is nothing in the NT that says Jesus is YHWH. Jesus always refers to his Father's name as .... his Father's name. So why are arguing contrary to Christ...

I regard your terminology as alien to the bible and due to your comprehension of the bible being defective. Thus, you surrender "Lord" and call Jesus "God." Why? Christ is "Lord" as he taught himself, and the Father is "God." Both have authority over creation. That Christ exercises direct...

The KJV completely removed some archaic, antiquated, rare, unusual, or difficult words or spellings found in one or more of the pre-1611 English Bibles. These words would be English Bible words or Biblical English found in the pre-1611 English Bibles. Should all the following words have been...
