Who ever claimed Mary asked to be impregnated?
Where the heck did that come from?


Where did THAT come from?
YOU !

Are you intentionally trying to be misleading?
Do you think that is a OK to do? To me or anyone else ?

I NEVER SAID "Mary asked to be impregnated"
That's a distortion of your own making...
What I asked - VERY CLEARLY... was:

Was Mary the first Jewish girl God asked to be impregnated?

GOD ASKED Mary to be pregnant. MARY DID NOT ASK- She said YES
to God- unlike Eve.
So yes, We assume THERE WAS NO other Jewish Girl asked -
(we have no verifiable proof that you continue to ask for)
because we believe in the Bible, we believe in the unseen.
You believe Mary was the One and ONly - and so do I.
but we believe that without proof.

If you think that God’s plan for Jesus birth would be thwarted because of the cooperation of a mere mortal human being,
you all have a pretty weak and impotent god.


God CHOSE MARY - Christ CHOSE HIS ONLY MOTHER
for his Incarnation, from the beginning.
Thats pretty freakin special right there... think about that.
GOD CHOSE MARY- for a reason. We do not know why- we can't know why.
But an Omnipotent God as you say WOULD NOT DO something willy-nilly.
GOD CHOSE MARY.
Could he have poofed ! the NEW Adam into existence-
just as he did the first Adam? Yes he could of.
But God chose Mary, BECAUSE GOD IS OMNIPOTENT- and does so for a reason.
You just need to trust in his reasoning.

No. To fulfill His prophetic Word, Messiah had to be born of a virgin. Not poofed.

Part of the reasoning behind Rome’s false claim of perpetual virginity, pre-birth and during birth comes from apocryphal, and rejected, writings which claim Jesus did just “poof” into existence without passing through the birth canal.

I tell ya, when you start digging into the background of Rome’s thinking on this and other issues, it’s quite the interesting dig. And it’s amazing how much contradicts not only Scripture but Rome’s own claims.
