Problem is, being human, He could not remove her sin nature from her. Then she wouldn't have been fully human. The only prophecy that needed to be fulfilled was that the mother of the messiah be a virgin. It says NOTHING about the need for her to be sinless.

Are denying that something is beyond the power of God? Was Jesus born with the stain of sin? If he was not then he was not fully human according to your logic.

And if God protected her from sin by having her born sinless, why doesn't or didn't He do that for ALL believers? If He could have done it for her, He could easily have done it for ANY human being.

You sound like the people who claim that God does not exist (or at least the Christian God) on the grounds that there is suffering in this world.

NO ONE whoever they claim to be, has the right to make binding on anyone something that is not clearly spelled out in Scripture.Do you have unambiguous Chapter and Verse on this?

Actually, yes. The *God can do anything* is a false premise.

But that's not the point. Arguments built on *God can do anything, therefore (fill in the blank) happened*, are doomed. It is not a solid basis on which to build an argument.

On the contrary, it demonstrates a total lack of any other supporting evidence to resort to that kind of reasoning.

Was Jesus born with the stain of sin?

Of course not and do you know why? The answer is in Scripture.
