February as part of 2020 is full of the package of Christ.

I greet you all in the Light of our Lord Jesus christπŸ™

I pray that your eyes open to the light of this revelation and by the end of this series you will be able to comprehend Christ – His humanity and Divinity
πŸ₯°
In this series, we are going to learn about the Doctrine of Christ

Jesus Christ is fully human and fully God.

In this classic exposition, we will study the Humanity of Christ and the Deity of Christ.

Now watch thisπŸ‘‡

THE HUMANITY OF CHRIST

We can’t talk about the humanity of Christ without first talking about the Virgin birth

When we speak of the humanity of Christ it is appropriate, to begin with, a consideration of the Virgin birth of Christ.

Scripture clearly asserts that Jesus was conceived in the womb of His mother Mary by a miraculous work of the Holy Spirit without a human father.
πŸ‘‡
Mat 1:18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.

✍✍

Mat 1:19 Then Joseph her husband, being a just [man], and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily.

Mat 1:20 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: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.

Then we read that Joseph did as the angel of the Lord has commanded him; he took his wife but knew her not until she had borne a son, and he called his name Jesus (Matt. 1:24-25)
Why the virgin birth and what importance of it to us.

Below is The doctrinal importance of the virgin birth.

Watch thisπŸ‘‡

1. It shows that salvation ultimately must come from the Lord.

Just as God had promised that the “seed” of the woman (Gen 3:15) would ultimately destroy the serpent, so God brought it about his own power, not through mere human effort.

Our Salvation only comes about through the supernatural work of God, which was evident at the beginning of Jesus’ life.

Gal 4:4 But when the fulness of the time came, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,
Gal 4:5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.

Hallelujah πŸ™

2. The virgin birth made it possible for the uniting of full deity and full humanity in one person.

This was the means God used to send his son (John 3:16, Gal 4:4) into the world as a man.

If we think for a moment of other possible ways in which Christ might have come to the earth, none of them would so clearly unite humanity and deity in one person.

It probably would have been possible for God to create Jesus as a complete human being in Heaven and send him to descend from heaven to earth without the benefit of any human parent.

But then it would have been very hard for us to see how Jesus could be fully human as we are, nor would he be a part of the human race that physically descended from Adam.

On the other hand, it would have been possible for God to have Jesus come into the world with two human parents, both father, and a mother, and with His fully divine nature miraculously united to his human nature at some point early in his life.

But then it would have been hard for us to understand how Jesus was fully God since his origin was like ours in any way.

3. The virgin birth also gives rise to Christ’s true humanity without inherited sin.

All human beings have inherited legal guilt and a corrupt moral nature from their first father, Adam (this is sometimes called “inherited sin” or Original sin”).

But the fact that Jesus did not have a human father means that the line of descent from Adam is partially interrupted.
Jesus did not descend from Adam in exactly the same way in which every other human being has descended from Adam.

Watch thisπŸ‘‡
But why did Jesus not inherit a sinful nature from mary? πŸ€”

The work of the Holy Spirit in Mary must have prevented not only the transmission of sin from Joseph(for Jesus had no father)

But also, the transmission of sin from Mary: “the holy spirit will come upon you…therefore the child to be born will be called Holy” (Luke 1:35)

GOD BLESS YOU ALL
