❓ Why Was He Born of a Virgin? 👼 Every miracle has a meaning and significance. Miracles do not merely declare the power of God in an abstract way unrelated to life or history, but they give meaning, change man's reality, and most importantly, they declare the nature of the new life, which is entirely different from the nature of the earthly life we live here. The birth of the Lord from the Virgin Saint Mary was preceded by the birth of Isaac, "the son of promise," in a surpassingly miraculous way. Then the Lord Himself inaugurated the New Testament with the birth of His forerunner, John the Baptist, whose birth strikingly resembled Isaac's. The Lord sealed the birth of all these with His own birth in an even greater way; for He is the only one born of a true physical birth like that of all humans, without marriage, without an earthly father, with Joseph, the betrothed of Saint Mary, having absolutely no role... This was to confirm: First: The new life in Christ. Second: Our new, heavenly birth. #VirginBirth #Incarnation #NewLife #Theology #Miracles
