“And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth, to a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary.” (Luke 1:26-27)
If someone has trouble believing in the miracle of the virgin birth of Jesus, may I remind you that if one believes in God he already believes in miracles. If one does not believe in the miracle working God nothing anyone can say will convince him of the miracle of the virgin birth of Christ.
Neither Gabriel, nor Mary nor Joseph initiated the miracle of Jesus’ birth. God planned it, put it in operation and brought it to pass. Only in this way would Christ be God’s only begotten Son. Only He would be qualified to be the perfect sacrifice for man. Only He would be the worthy object of faith; that in believing in Him man would not perish but have everlasting life. No lesser person than God’s Son could bear the sins of the world on Himself and bring salvation to all who would believe.
