How was Mary a virgin and still pregnant? Was this foretold?
Pastor Mike preaches The Virgin Conception - [Luke 1:26-38].
While we usually deem Jesus’ birth as “the virgin birth,” the birth of Jesus was a normal, natural birth. The most amazing thing was the virgin conception.
Some Christians say we are "overdoing" the virgin birth. Are we? Are are they under-doing it? And why does it matter?
How Joseph (almost) stole Christmas. But didn't. And what we can learn from him.

A new MP3 sermon from Southside Baptist Church is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: The Virgin Conception and the Precious Blood of Jesus Speaker: James Bell Broadcaster: Southside Baptist Church Event: Sunday - AM Date: 12/19/2021 Bible: Matthew 1:18-25 Length: 33 min.
Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: when His mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child by the Holy Spirit. And Joseph her husband, being a righteous man and not wanting to disgrace her, planned to send her away secretly. But when he had considered this, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife; for the Child who has been conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. She will bear a Son; and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins.” Now all this took place to fulfill what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet: “BEHOLD, THE VIRGIN SHALL BE WITH CHILD AND SHALL BEAR A SON, AND THEY SHALL CALL HIS NAME IMMANUEL,” which translated means, “GOD WITH US.” And Joseph awoke from his sleep and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took Mary as his wife, but kept her a virgin until she gave birth to a Son; and he called His name Jesus. Matthew 1:18-25

John 1:14 Message Notes
Welcome to Season 2! This season is all about busting up myths about the church. This week we're busting the myth that faith is a blind leap. The truth is that there's actually a lot of evidence that what the Bible says is true, that God is really there, and that Jesus is the Son of God as He claimed to be. We put faith day in and day out in things that are much less reliable and proven than God. ____________________________________________________________________________ Scripture and other References Season Memory Verse - Romans 10:9 (CSB) If you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

This is a short message for Christmas Eve. It focuses on the Virgin Mary's pondering the events surrounding the birth of her first child.----Imagine it- Mary had been an unmarried teenager, pregnant, but not by the person to whom she had been engaged to be married. Had God not revealed the miracle of the Virgin Conception to Joseph, he would have put her away.----Now they are married, but in a strange town, staying where animals are kept. They have just been visited by shepherds who report the message of the angel of the LORD that the Messiah has been born in the city of David. They recount the chorus of peace by the army of heaven.----Naturally, Mary hides these words in her heart and tosses them back and forth as she reflects on all that has happened to her. She a mere human has given birth to him who is both truly God and truly human.----She is the Theotokos ----------, the God-bearer- the Mater Dei, the Mother of God -- not in his divine nature, of course, but in his human nature.----However, from reading through the Gospels, it is apparent that Mary did not fully commit herself to her Son until after his death and resurrection. This can be clearly seen in the accounts of her joining with her other children in attempting to stop the Lord Jesus in his mission -Matthew 12-46-50- Mark 3-20-21, 31-35- Luke 8-19-21- John 7-3-5-.----This may account for the Lord Jesus' entrusting her into the care of his beloved and trusted disciple, because he knew that she needed encouragement and comfort in the wake of his death, not the cynical unbelief of the rest of her family -John 19-26-27-.
In this episode of the podcast, J. Warner joins Bill Arnold on Faith Radio to talk about the miraculous nature of the virgin conception.

Be sure to subscribe to Bill’s excellent podcast.
Is the Virgin Conception reasonable? Is it just a crazy idea or are there good reasons to put our faith in it? We discuss that and more on this episode! Visit Brewery Ministries on Facebook Visit breweryministries.org

Pastor Derrick Lynch begins Advent teaching about the wonder and glory of the Jesus' conception and what that means for believers.
Pastor Steve Scott begins Advent teaching about the wonder and glory of Jesus' conception and what that means for believers.
In this episode of the Cold-Case Christianity Broadcast, J. Warner examines the Virgin Conception and discusses its role in the Christmas narrative and its place in the Christian worldview. Why is the virgin conception of Jesus important? Is it an essential claim of Christianity? Could Jesus be the Savior of the world if he wasn’t conceived miraculously? How should we, as Christians making the case for truth, approach the subject with our skeptical friends and family members?
In this blast from the past, J. Warner takes a thorough look at objections to the essential Christian claim that Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born to the Virgin Mary. Is the "virgin conception" a ridiculous claim that defies reason and is unsupported by the history recorded in the New Testament and elsewhere?
In the second installment of our Advent series, Christmas Mystery, Pastor Andy shows us that an invitation is at the heart of the Christmas story.
Have you every wondered what the virgin birth is about? Well, the first thing you'll learn is that really, we should be looking at the virgin conception (because that's the miracle). In this sermon, Peter explains four reasons why the virgin conception is important.
In this episode of the Cold-Case Christianity Broadcast, J. Warner Wallace continues his series on the virgin conception of Jesus. If the virgin conception of Jesus really happened, why didn’t Mark or Paul say anything about it? Does their silence mean the virgin conception was a late idea added to the story of Jesus? Is there any good reason to believe Mark or Paul knew about the virgin conception, and if so, why didn’t they mention it? (For more information, visit www.ColdCaseChristianity.com)
In this episode of the Cold-Case Christianity Broadcast, J. Warner Wallace continues his series on the virgin conception of Jesus. Was the virgin conception borrowed from ancient pagan myths? Do these ancient mythologies resemble Jesus or offer a similar birth narrative? Would ancient Jews or Christians borrow such a notion? Were the Gospels written so late that no one would have known about the birth of Jesus? (For more information, visit www.ColdCaseChristianity.com)
In this episode of the Cold-Case Christianity Broadcast, J. Warner Wallace begins a series on the virgin conception of Jesus. Why is the virgin conception an essential truth about Jesus in the first place? Is it necessary? How can anyone believe in such an event? Is it reasonable? (For more information, visit www.ColdCaseChristianity.com)
Canon Michael Sayward believes that the Virgin Conception is an attested historical fact, and an essential doctrine for Christian belief. Unitarian minister Sarah Tinker believes it to be a "beautiful myth" that should not be taken literally. They debate and we hear listener phone calls, response to the last few weeks of programming as well as tackling the "Jesus is a plagiarism of Pagan Gods" argument.
