We like to think of ourselves as pretty sophisticated in America today. So when Christmas comes around and people start talking about the virgin birth, it sounds more like an ancient myth than reality to many people. Yet that’s how God decided to send his son to us – born of a virgin. God chose the spectacular because of the significance of the child to be born. To believe something as miraculous as virgin conception takes faith. We must believe that God is God and that he can do anything he chooses.
Jesus’ virgin birth was the bringing of God to earth – the son of God who was heavenly became earthly. He who was deity became humanity. And he did these miraculous things for us, so that we could have a future and that future could be with God.
