So in other words, what I had seen in the movie, “The Nativity”, the birth of Christ scene was in error?
So is this what must be believed and accepted by all Christians or just what is taught for Catholics?
Thank-you for your answers, God Bless, and have a good and blessed Merry Christmas. :)
Never having seen the movie, I have no way of knowing how they depicted the birth of Jesus. Since Hollywood is not populated with theologians, I doubt they gave much thought to the scriptural origin of this topic.
We remember that one of the sufferings inherited because of original sin is that of "child bearing pains:" The Lord God said to Eve, "I will intensify the pangs of your childbearing; in pain shall you bring forth children" (Genesis 3:16). Since Mary was free from original sin by her immaculate conception, she would consequently be free of "child bearing pain."
