Birth of Christ

It has been evident that scriptural truths and biblical facts have been outrageously misrepresented and made contemptible beyond measure by the insidious teachings of religious dogma, ideologies and philosophies of man.

“For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders: insomuch that, if it were possible they shall deceive the very elect.” Matthew 24:24

The Holy Bible, King James 1611 authorized edition is categorically explicit and definitive in all its oracle pronouncements as it pertains to its writings from Genesis to Revelations. Let there be no misunderstandings, with all sincerity and all humility, that the truths of the Holy Bible were only revealed to the Nation of Israel and their subsequent posterity.

“He sheweth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel. (20) He hath not dealt so with any nation: and as for his judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye the LORD.” Psalm 147:19-20

We will begin our discourse on the subject matter of the so-called “Immaculate Conception” in order to bring forth knowledge not religion according to the truths of the Holy Bible.

“So all Israel were reckoned by genealogies; (Heb. <3187 & 3188> to sprout; to enroll by pedigree:---{number after, number throughout the genealogy} to be reckoned, be reckoned by genealogies.) I Chronicles 9:1

So, we begin and find in the book of Saint Matthew:

“The book of the generation of Jesus Christ…” Matthew 1:1

The word generation is defined in the Greek. <1085> as “kin” born, country (-man), diversity, generation, kind (-red), nation, offspring, stock.

“And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.” Matthew 1:16

The word husband here is defined in the law: Hebrew <376> as… man, (good, great, mighty) man, he, high (degree), him (that is), and husband.

The law of marriage according to the Holy Bible:

“And if a man entice a maid that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely endow her to be his wife.” Exodus 22:16

Back to St. Matthew:

“Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: (meaning what is to follow) When as his mother Mary was espoused …

The word espoused is defined in the Greek. <3422> to give a souvenir (engagement present). i.e. betroth: —-espoused

…to Joseph, before they came together (meaning before the marriage ceremony) she was found with child of the Holy Ghost .” Matthew 1:18

So, Mary was found with child of, not by , the Holy Ghost; we are given clarification and further understanding of this verse in the book of Isaiah:

“And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch (Christ) shall grow out of his roots: (2) And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him , (meaning the Holy Ghost/Spirit) the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD:” (meaning that Christ would be graced with the gifts and distinction of the Holy Spirit.) Isaiah 11:1-2

There are certain beliefs and different persuasions that have concluded, without biblical fact or evidence, that the angel/messenger Gabriel or the Holy Ghost had intercourse with the Virgin Mary. This would go against the laws and commandments of the Holy Bible concerning the angels and the question to marry or be given in marriage.

Consider: When Christ was questioned by the Sadducees about the resurrection of the dead:

“And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God? For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as angels which are in heaven.” Mark 12:24-25

Back to St. Matthew:

“Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, (because he didn’t want to bring embarrassment upon his wife before they had the ceremony because of the pregnancy) was minded to put her away privily. (20) But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: (meaning to have the ceremony) for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.”
Matthew 1:19-20

There are many bible truths and facts that prove that Christ “… was made like unto his brethren …” and in the knowing of this,

“God is not a man, that he should lie: neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? Or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?” Numbers 23:19

So, we will further show, through scripture that there never was such a thing as the so-called Immaculate Conception.

In the writings of Paul a servant of Christ tells us:

“Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh.” Romans 1:3

It is explained in the law of Moses the meaning of the word seed and its operation.

“And if any man’s seed of copulation and its operation. go out from him, then he shall wash all his flesh in water, and be unclean until the even.” Leviticus 15:16

• SEED: IS DEFINED, (HEB.) <2232 & 2233> TO SOW; TO DISSEMINATE, PLANT, FRUCTIFY:

• BEAR CONCEIVE SEED …SOWING-TIME, POSTERITY: --- CARNALLY , CHILD, FRUITFUL, SEED.

• *COPULATION: IS DEFINED, (HEB.) <7901 &7902> TO LIE DOWN (FOR REST, SEXUAL CONNECTION …)

• A LYING DOWN (…FOR THE SEXUAL ACT ):---CARNALLY, COPULATION, LAY, SEED.

Even Luke, the beloved physician, recorded in the book of Acts:

“And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave their testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after mine own heart, which shall fulfil all my will (23) Of this man's seed hath God according to his promise raised unto Israel a Saviour, Jesus:” Acts 13: 22-23

And further, it is written in the Gospel of St. John:

“Hath not the scripture said, That Christ cometh of the seed of David , and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was?” John 7:42

The Psalmist also documents:

“The LORD hath sworn in truth unto David; he will not turn from it; Of the fruit of thy body (the seed) will I set upon thy throne.” Psalms 132:11

Paul again reminds us,

“Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel” II Timothy 2:8

And finally, Paul states:

“For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed Abraham.” (17) Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren of ,…” Hebrews 2:16-17

Therefore, let us forever be mindful of these truths that disprove the theory of the so-called Immaculate Conception . For as much as we are followers and believers of the words of Christ we must remain vigilant and always:

“Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.” Colossians 2:8
