Introduction:
John 8:41 - "You are doing the works your father did." They said to him, "We were not born of sexual immorality. We have one Father--even God."
Why I believe in the virgin birth of Jesus Christ (and why it matters) (Matthew 1:18-25):
- It is the Straightforward Teaching of scripture.
- It is Certainly Possible with God.
Luke 1:34 - How will this be, since I am a virgin?
Luke 1:37 - Nothing will be impossible with God.
- It is Essential for Salvation.
