Why is it so hard to believe when the Son of God got into the womb basically the same way? Or is that not true either?

I believe the Holy Spirit-inspired Bible—every word of it. If God informed us in His inspired Word that the birth of Jesus was like light passing through a pane of glass—or whatever analogy would have sufficed in the first century—I’d be first in line to believe it.

However, all the Bible says is that when Mary’s term of pregnancy was complete , she, “gave birth.” That is what I believe happened:she gave birth. If there was anything about the birth beyond that unadorned fact that believers needed to know, God would have told us. But He simply revealed that Mary, “gave birth,” and that’s sufficient for me.
