Scripture Passage: Luke 1

The virgin birth is Mary’s conception of Jesus by Holy Spirit apart from a man.

QUESTION:What are some implications if we deny the virgin birth? Example: Bible is not trustworthy.

The virgin birth means: Jesus was able to live a sinless life; His living a sinless life means that Jesus was a sinless sacrifice; Jesus giving His life as a sinless sacrifice means there was an atonement for our sin.

1. The virgin birth reminds us why we have access to God.
   1. What do the following verses have to say? 1 Corinthians 15:22, Romans 5:12, John 3:16
   2. His Father is God; His mother is human. He is God inhuman flesh; He is God-man. He is the One who is qualified to die on the cross for our salvation.
2. The virgin birth reminds us that “nothing is impossible with God.” Luke 1:37
   1. You don’t have to understand to validate the truth.
