Cathode I can see that you will not accept the Word of God. The bible is clear that the sinless Christ Jesus was born of a sinful woman.
So you are saying Jesus was conceived of sinful flesh?

No she didn’t, that’s your false interpretation of her words.
So you are saying Jesus was conceived of sinful flesh?
READ HER WORDS. How is what I said misinterpreting her words?
Luk_1:47 and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior!
Mary knew she was a sinner and needed a savior.
Did mary say God is her savior? Is Jesus God? Is Jesus our savior? Do sinners need a savior?
If you say yes to these questions then you have to agree that mary was a sinner who called God/ Jesus her savior.
What words do you not understand? You are arguing based on the RCC dogma not the bible.
The bible say He was conceived by a sinful woman that needed a savior just as the rest of us do.
We say Mary was saved, but saved from sin altogether. God saved her from falling into sin in the first place.
You jump to the erroneous conclusion that her being saved, meant she was a sinner.
He being the Son of God, God the Creator, being incarnate to be a real man is sinless being He is God too.And therefore.....?
So in sin was Jesus conceived by Mary and He was shapen in iniquity?
You saying Jesus was a sinner from conception, you realise that right?
That is private interpretation on the part of the RCC and you. The bible is clear that see was a sinner in need of a savior.
How else can you understand "my spirit rejoices in God my Savior?"
You rail against private interpretation and that claim private interpretation is ok if the RCC does it.
That is not what I am saying and you know it so you are being dishonest in your comments. If you have to resort to that tactic than you know you have lost the argument.
You did not bother to answer my questions did you, why is that?
Did mary say God is her savior? Is Jesus God? Is Jesus our savior? Do sinners need a savior?
Since you can not be honest with me perhaps you can not honest with yourself.
As said you can either believe the bible or the RCC but not both. The choice is yours.
You are the private interpreter of scripture from the tradition of private interpreters.
The Catholic Church maintains the same Apostolic interpretation for 2000 years.
You can’t get a sinless Jesus conceived from sinful flesh. Sorry, completely false and incoherent.
No doubt another private interpreter has built on your erroneous private interpretation and concluded in honesty to his position that Jesus must have been a sinner.
It’s the honest conclusion of your position.
Read what you just posted, it is all private interpretation on your part. The RCC has foisted it's private interpretation on the church and you have believed it over the word of God.
I have pointed you to scripture and you respond with RCC dogma. Since biblical truth is not what you seek I will leave you to follow the dogma's of the RCC.
May God have mercy on your soul.
@Cathode, Either you believe in the simple truth of the Son of God's incarnation as a true man or not. He didn't cease to be God. For that reason alone He cannot not be sinless. Get this, only God in His infinite goodness can be sinless.
Luke 18:19.
Read post #254.Not if as you guys contend, that Jesus was conceived of sinful flesh.
Mary conceived Jesus, if she was a sinner, then Jesus would have been.
It’s because God saved Mary from all sin, generational and personal, that she could conceive Jesus of her flesh and Jesus would not have any stain of sin.
Simple. You can’t get Immaculate from defiled, but you can get Immaculate from Immaculate.
So Mary was sinless, so she could conceive Jesus sinlessly.
God by His Grace and Power, did this for Mary.
“ The Almighty has done great things for me “
So God was powerless to keep Jesus from sin even though the Holy Spirit overshadowed her in which she became with child? No physical conception needed. Seems that is exactly what God did according to His Word and that what God said in Romans 3:23 meant exactly what God meant 'ALL have sinned'.He was son of man as well, He was fully human, taking his humanity from His Mother who conceived Him.
Mary conceived Jesus of her flesh, and that could only happen if Mary was sinless.
If Mary was a sinner, Jesus would have been as well.
It couldn’t have happened if Mary was a sinner. Obviously she was sinless.

Jesus was both a real fininte man and the infinite LORD God of Genesis 3:22. So it is written in Hebrews 4:15, ". . . For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin." Stop believing Roman paganism.
Yes, my Lord JESUS left very clear, saying: Revelation 22: 18 & 20:I do not think you should be referring to the catholic religion as that of the devil. I do not agree with the RCC but even they have much in common with Christians. My disagreement with Cathode, as he knows, is the things that the RCC has added to the bible. The dogma's etc.
You may strongly disagree with the RCC, as I do, but you will never be able to help someone in that religion if you do not do it from a position of care and love for their soul.
