To: Full Court; Knitting A Conundrum
If that were true, those children would of been with them on the trip to Bethlhem and they were not.

Really? Do you KNOW that or are you speculating? The Bible doesn't mention if anyone else went along to Bethlehelm -- it deals with the bigger picture in all. You cannot twist scripture to reflect what you want it to.

I am not speculating. The Word of God tells me those FACTS.

Luke 2:1  ¶And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed.

2  (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)

3  And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.

4  And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:)

5  To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.

Note that ALL went, but no other children went with Joseph and Mary because at this point THERE WERE NONE.

Mary and Joseph did not consumate their marriage until after the birth of Jesus.
