No human can ever explain the virgin birth of Jesus Christ. For all the scientists and all the doctors of the world combined cannot answer the simple question how is it possible for a virgin woman Mary to give birth to a child called Immanuel. These days we hear about surrogate mothers. It means that a woman who previously bore a child is eligible to become a surrogate mother. A virgin woman is not eligible to become a surrogate mother. Even though there is some evidence that theoretically it is possible but in reality without a male sperm XY attaching to a female chromosome XX there’s no chance of a woman becoming pregnant.

Matthew 1:23

²³ “Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel,” which is translated, “God with us.”

The Bible records in the Book of Isaiah chapter seven and verse fourteen that the virgin shall conceive and bears a Son. It is repeated again in Matthew chapter one and in verse twenty three by an angel of the Lord after 700 years from the first prophecy of Isaiah.

How is that God only selected a virgin woman and not a woman who had children before? The Catholics present Mary as a sinless woman but that it is incorrect. For the Word of God declares that all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. Mary is also a sinner just like all of us. She needs a Savior to save her. In Luke chapter one Mary’s song says this:

Luke 1:47

⁴⁷ And my spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all. Amen.

Maranatha! Come Lord Jesus!
