A Note on Birth of Jesus Christ

In the discussion on my previous post I made a comment on possibility of a pregnancy of a human woman without having a husband; a case that might happen similar to what historically has been said about Jesus Christ.

I clear my position that I do not have doubt about what the gospels have described about the birth of Jesus: that he is son of god and the fact that Mary conceived by intervention of Holy Spirit. What I say, is to refute what atheists know as impossibility of such a pregnancy.

See, if you look around yourself all the women give birth to only one child when pregnant. This is the most probable. Each woman releases one egg in each (lunar) period . When this egg becomes paired with a sperm, it shields itself from penetration of other sperms.

With all these machineries in place some eggs allow a second sperm and monozygotic or identical twins become created. Sometimes women release two eggs and pregnancy creates two children of the non-identical or dizygotic type. This is more frequent than the other one, around 1 to 2 percent of all the child births. Monozygotic amounts to just a fraction of this fraction.

God forbids a lot of anomalies can happen in this process such as conjoined twins. Babies with two heads etc. as we continue the probability decreases.

We have seen twins of two fathers conceived in time intervals within a day, one from an African father with dark skin one with a non-African father with lighter skin. The probability of such incident is absolutely miniscule.

I saw an orange almost as big as a melon and inside it there was an orange surrounding another full orange and that one surrounded another full orange. The fourth inner layer was almost as little as a glass marble but still an edible orange.

Then we have triplets with a chance of 1 in 4400 birth and then quadruplets and quintuplets still with slimmer chances and technology assisted conception has succeeded  even to give birth to eight children in an octuplet .

In the same way scientists have calculated a spontaneous conception accident with a probability of less than one over 150,000,000 (one hundred fifty millions) of the fertile human females. (Probability does not mean that it happens; means that it is just probable.)

Many of such births have been left without attention and assumed as natural due to the environment and time of pregnancy.

There were similar stories before the time of Jesus Christ among different nations; for example, story of Diana among Romans who became conceived, when she was naked, by a shower of gold.

The next dispute recently has been created to alter the miraculous life of Jesus Christ, turning him into an ordinary man, is the arguments about his race.

All of us, we humans are from the same race; that is, human race; what about Jesus Christ? Was he from kryptonite? Definitely not. He came with the flesh of human and was suffered and tolerated pain to salvage man.

Now there are hidden agendas that tell people that he was not blond hair and fair skin as depicted in the pictures that Europeans have or imagine about him. They say he was dark skin and Middle Eastern or Semite and so on. They put finger on the recent studies of DNA and ethnology and electronic microscopes and such things.

As much I excavate (or better term scavenge) these studies I get nearer to the root of those who have these strings in their hands:  Antichrist and people similar to those who crucified Jesus Christ.

We have two answers for such allegations. First for believers: God created Christ the same way who created Adam. God was not short of DNA and Jesus Christ remains in the picture of Adam in any way that humans can imagine Him.

Even, it is not sure, as I heard from the vicar of my local church, that Mary was actual cousin of Elizabeth. At that time like modern days in many places including Middle East, very intimate friends and neighbours used to call each other aunt, uncle and cousins; especially when children were very young, and that would remain in the minds of those children.

Second, for those who are non-believer to religious stories: The places which were described as the birth place and growth of Christ were center of commerce and war between many nations, full of soldiers, tradesmen and mercers and sailors, and slaves from India, Central Asia, Africa and Europe up to Norse people. It was the time and place of wars, lootings, arsons and rape. Romans had recruits, slaves and administrators and soldiers from Germans, Cartages, Niobean, Gauls, Armenians and Bulgars and others. If one believes that a human has been the father of Christ, then any human from this population could be His father.

  1. It is interesting to hear your take on the subject of the birth of Jesus especially the idea that just as God created Adam and Eve then so could be the possibility that Jesus was created in the same manner. Also your description of the variations from the norm in the reproduction of fruit in nature as well as human life itself is quite an eye opener regarding the extreme end of possibility.

    However owing to the fact that we ourselves are removed from the event of the birth of Jesus through the passing of time,then we have to rely on accounts passed down to us over many generations and to believe in these accounts is what faith is all about. However the Bible does say that we have to worship God in spirit and in truth. It also states that when the spirit of truth comes it will lead you into all understanding. This last statement I have naturally taken to understand that it is in reference to the promised Second Coming of Jesus which was necessitated because of his untimely death. Jesus himself said that ‘I have many things to tell you but you cannot bear them now’.

    The focus of my own writings on this blog is to bring awareness to the writings which constitute the True Gospel Revealed Anew by Jesus which is comprised of messages received through the mediumship of James E Padgett beginning in 1914. These messages only became known to myself more than a quarter of a century after I had begun to have personal experiences which were very specific in their content and which now I realise serve as my own personal affirmation of the validity of these writings.

    These experiences came to me for some reason over many years although I did not know of their significance at the time and as such regard them as a gift that should be shared and to this end it has been on my mind to write full accounts which will also include names of people who would have known me at the time or know others who have been mentioned and in some cases will be able to ask them of what I had said to them or done together which was the case with Philip Hill. Philip is only aware of one part of a sequence of events which began many years before but are connected, this is why it will take much effort to explain such events fully. This is something which has been constantly on my mind to do for years but have always put it off.

  2. Writing down and recording these personal experiences is a good idea and is also useful for others. I loved if other people with real and similar experiences would join. I hope gradually that happens.

    Even some materialist psychologists/psychiatrists recently have forced to add a category as “spiritual emergency” in their classifications.

    Real conversion to religion is something very personal that differs among the humans and cannot be done under duress, coercion or even reasoning. It is something that flows in and open our eyes to a world not can be seen by any kind of reasoning.
