Many of you keep missing the point. The [unsaved] people asking me this question seem to get it. I understand that God did not have sex with Mary. The issue is God got a betrothed woman pregnant. Is someone else getting essentially a married woman pregnant a sin? If not, why not? It's not okay to ha...

That is not always clear. What is not always clear? The fact is, as God has clearly pointed out in the various Scriptures I posted, that we are already redeemed and adopted as sons, and only wait the redemption of our bodies. Maybe it is not yet clear to you. :D "You shall know the truth and t...

You didn't use Acts?
Not what I wrote. What I wrote was "I didn't use just Acts."

And you didn't answer my important question:
The devil believes in God. Does the devil have salvation by believing?

We are children of God through Christ, but we are still awaiting our redemption, adoption, and glorification. Actually, we have already been redeemed, (1) and adopted, (2) and are only awaiting the glorification of our bodies. 1. Christ redeemed [past tense] us from the curse of the law by becoming...

I must have hit a nerve, as you've resorted to questioning my salvation because I question your interpretation of Scripture. "If you have seen me, you have seen the Mother." "I and the Mother are one." "Our Mother who art in heaven...." "In the same way, let your l...

Yes, I've read John 20:31 many many times. I should point out to you that I've been a born again Christian for over 30 years. During those years I have studied the Bible thoroughly verse-by-verse in context. But my study doesn't mean I am correct, no more than your study means you're correct. So, te...

Actually this myth that God is a male is not scripturally sound either... God made men and women after his own image, (Gen 1:27). Therefore God has male and FEMALE attributes, but is not physically one or the other... I think you're confusing God creating male and female and giving them His emotion...

Nope.. Again God again has male and female attributes.. (Gen:. 1:27). He is known in the male (that's true..), but this doesn't mean he doesn't possess female qualities as well. Example, God is called a mother hen in Matt 23:37.. Isaiah 42:14 has God saying, “I cry out like a travailing woman,” an...

That's the problem for the YEC position. It starts from the position that the Bible teaches a YEC position and then it embarks on a search for evidence. Rather than be a problem it's a benefit. Start with the Word of God and work outward. I notice many if not most Old Earthers seem to put more fait...

I'm only asking because I was asked recently and wanted to see how other Christians would respond to the same question.

I never thought about it before.

That wasn't the question.

Did God sin in getting Mary pregnant?

And God is male that is why He is referred to as Father. Never called a female Father even once in my life.

Image refers to emotional attributes or characteristics, not physical.

Did God Sin by Getting Mary Pregnant?

Since Mary was espoused to Joseph, which, at that time, was as good as being married, did God sin in making another man's wife pregnant?

John's gospel is written to bring people to eternal life. It is the evangelistic gospel. If his purpose is to bring someone to eternal life, it follows that he will have all the necessary instructions. And yet, NOWHERE do we find the word "repent"! Again, John could not have "forgott...

No. The hebrew word "image" here is the same word translated elsewhere as "idol." Would you kindly provide sources for your statement? I understand the word for idols in Hebrew is Hebrew: Teraphim, plural, meaning: "images;" "a family idol". These were family...
