Yet, all true humans are under the Adamic curse. How then can Jesus be a true man and not be implicated in Adam's sin? Only by the virgin birth can the child born to Mary be the holy offspring... called the Son of God.

Believing in the virgin birth is as important as believing in the resurrection. Both the beginning and the ending of our Lord's earthly life are sensational and underscore for us the wonderful truth of who He is - the Son of God, the Savior of the world.
