Help me my brethren, for I have reached a state of cognitive dissonance. I fully understand that Jesus is our Lord and Savior, but if Mary was a technical virgin then is Jesus not a bastard child? This is a very serious question and I mean no offense by it. If I cannot reach an answer then I fear I will never be at peace. Please, help me unearth the truth so that I may confidently bask in GOD's glory.

Re: Huge Spiritual Dilemma
Jesus is God. God used Mary's baby oven to carry Him so He could be born as a human in the world, and sleep in a feeding trough for livestock.Originally posted by SwimminginChrist View PostHelp me my brethren, for I have reached a state of cognitive dissonance.

God is God. He has neither father nor mother. Therefore, He is not a bastard.www.palibandaily.com - Your Christian News Source

Re: Huge Spiritual Dilemma
If I could offer a Scientheistic explanation it might help. Sister Jenny is correct. God needed a human vessel to cross from His holy domain to our mundane and sin filled world, albeit in the distant past.
He, in His great wisdom, chose to impregnate a poor, homeless, married virgin. He knew this would be a subtle way for Him/His son to enter our world.
That way, Jesus would not be a bastard, as His "parents" were married. Also, by impregnating a married virgin, God made sure the womb His son was carried in was pure and clean.
See, when think about it, it makes perfect sense!Professor of Creation Science and Flood Geology at Landover Baptist University

Re: Huge Spiritual Dilemma
But she was married when Jesus was born, that is what counts. And of course God knew that she would be married when His only begotten Son was born because he is omniscient.
Since she remained a virgin until our Lords birth, she and her womb also remained pure. She never fornicated out of wedlock, and because God impregnated her divinely, Jesus was not a bastard.
It is fairly simple when you just take a moment to think it through.Professor of Creation Science and Flood Geology at Landover Baptist University

Re: Huge Spiritual Dilemma
Jesus existed before the Creation John 17:5 “And now, O Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world was.” - He just appeared through Mary. Obviously it had to be some woman, and she was convenient.sigpic

I don't recall that Mary ever had a choice in the matter. When the LORD says to do something, you do it. THAT'S the mark of a True Christian.sigpic
