Why was it Necessary Jesus Mother be a Virgin?

The mother of Jesus had to be a virgin to fulfill prophesy (Isa 7:14).

God is fair and just, so, when he becomes a player in the game of life, he plays by the rules already established. Jesus being born of a virgin assures us of Gods fairness in this game. Allow me to expand on my thoughts farther by putting this explanation as a story.

Man was created to worship God, and thier worship was not as God desired. Adam, the first man, sinned against God and his punishment extended to all of mankind (Romans 5:12-19). We all were placed under a curse. We were given a sin nature (Romans 5:12). The bible tells us that we are in slavery to sin (Romans 6:17-18).  That is, without Christ, we can’t keep ourselves from sinning against God.

As a result of this transgression we were separated from perfect fellowship with God (Genesis 3:23-24). Because we discovered selfish desire through this sin; our wants became greater and more important to us than serving our creator.   Our punishment for this sinful state of being is an eternal separation from God through both a spiritual and physical death. In life, we can separate ourselves from God by choice. In death we separate ourselves from God by residing in the only place He isn’t. Hell. And. We don’t have to do anything to get there. By the nature of man we are destined to go to hell (John 3:18).

Our deliverance from the results of our poor choices was planned from the beginning of time, (Romans 16:25-26) and we find that deliverance to be a reconciled relationship with our creator (Romans 5:10; 2Cor 5:18).

First, Adam violated God’s law and as consequence, sin entered into this world. Later, God used 10 commandments to show man that he needed his creator, to show him his depravity, and to show him the evil desires that lies in our heart. We by nature can’t do right, and for us to be free from our slavery to sin we needed a second chance.

Because God had ruled that all of Adam’s seed should receive the sin nature from the seed of the father there was no man in humankind that had the ability to father a child without a sinful nature. Adam was the only man ever born that was not in bondage to sin, and he was the only man to sin by free choice instead of nature driving him to do so (1Tim 2:14).  So in order for God to reconcile himself with man and restore the relationship Adam had with him prior to sin, he needed a perfect man to pay the debt of sin (death; 1Cor 15:56) for all mankind. . We needed a second Adam that was without sin to purchase the freedom of all. If each one of us died, we could only account for our own transgressions and the cost of our sin was our death. We did not have enough life to pay for more than one debt, it required a person that had never sinned to buy the freedom of all (2Cor 5:21). The only person that could pay this price and thereby free man to an eternal life did not exist. This unheard of person must be born of a father that is without sin in his life and this is why Jesus Christ was born of a virgin. His father was without sin. His father was The Sinless Holy Spirit of God. (Matt 1:20).  God set rules in place for our benefit and even in his involvement plays by the same rules he has set for us. He is fair, just, and Holy.

Merry Christmas,
