Why The Virgin Birth Matters

The subject of the Virgin Birth is a crucial fundamental issue in modern Christianity because it opens the door to a unique nature for their Christ.

Much of today’s Christian dogma is based on the belief that Jesus/Yeshua is born without a human father, and this fundamental tenet of faith most prevalent in the Roman Catholic church spills over into the Protestant church, and continues to spill over into the Messianic community – to include “Hebrew roots”, “Torah-observant” and other such labeled parties, who hold to Jesus/Yeshua as the Christ/Messiah.

The problem however, is that the Old Testament is filled with promises made by YHVH to men concerning the fate of their physical seed, speaking in no uncertain terms, as to who would build a house for the name of YHVH and whose kingdom will never end.

The New Testament clearly testifies of Yeshua being that anointed physical son of David, son of Abraham, in response to those promises and prophecies of old.

But the virgin birth doctrine has tainted the New Testament with ideas that are simply not in there, such as:

  • The idea that Yeshua’s birth was miraculous in nature, differing from any other conception story given in the history of the household of Israel.
  • Or the idea that Yeshua had no human father, which violates the natural order put in place by the Creator Himself, undermining the most fundamental and powerful tenet of Scripture, that being: the father-son relationship.

This teaching of being born without a human father opens the door to the notion that the anointed man of God could also be physically divine in nature, which was clearly condemned by YHVH in the days of Noah before the flood, especially when considering Enoch’s testimony.

While there are factions within the virgin birth believing community who recognize Yeshua as being born purely human in the flesh, not all believe as such. In fact, the mainstream teaching insists that he is unique in nature: that Jesus Christ is superhuman.

Again, this notion smacks of what was clearly condemned by the Creator God, leading to the destruction of all life on the land first with water in Noah’s day, and then with fire in Abraham’s day.

Add to this the issue of either making YHVH out to be a covenant/promise-breaker to Abraham and David and liar to all the children of Israel, or making John the Baptist and all the apostles of the first century out to be frauds and liars, who claimed Yeshua to be the promised one to come.

Either way, this doctrine, in my view, severs the New Testament from the Old and leads everyone astray.

If only more could have eyes to see the truth on this matter, then I believe folks would feel more empowered to walk in our intended purpose here on the land.

Good could overcome evil without having to call on any Marvel or DC Comics superhero, and we all could experience prosperity and peace in the land without having to colonize Mars or escape to some planet in or beyond the Milky Way.

If you would like more information on the idea that there is no virgin birth in the Bibleand that Yeshua is still considered the Messiah, then let me know.

I’ll share with you some of what I’m seeing and give you the opportunity to pick my brain if you like.

I understand this is a taboo subject to oppose, and it can be very difficult to wrap your mind around this idea when we’ve been conditioned to only see what the New Testament says through the Virgin Birth paradigm. Let me help you.
