The Necessity of Special Creation

It is more than conjecture. Contrary to what some may think Job is more than figures of speech and imagery.

Had Christ been born of a woman, of her ovum, He would have been born unclean according to the Word of God.

That my friend, is not conjecture. It is truth.

 

According to the Greek, conceived in Matthew 1:20 means beget or begotten.

Why do you have such a hard time accepting the truth?

 

Here are all the definitions of the word 'conceived' for Matthew 1:20

1) of men who fathered children
a) to be born
b) to be begotten
1) of women giving birth to children
2) metaph.
a) to engender, cause to arise, excite
b) in a Jewish sense, of one who brings others over to his way of life, to convert someone
c) of God making Christ his son
d) of God making men his sons through faith in Christ's work



When spoken of women, it is speaking of the actual birth process, not the receiving of the male sperm cell.

Morrish Bible Dictionary
Begotten
1. From ?e????, 'to beget.' This word is used:

a, for the natural generation of mankind, as in Matt. 1.

b, for the, spiritual generation of the Christian. Paul wrote to the Corinthians, "In Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel," 1 Cor. 4. 15; and of Onesimus he says, "whom I have begotten in my bonds," Phm 1:10 signifying that he had been the means of their conversion; for the Christian is begotten of God. 1Jo 5:18; 1Pe 1:3.

d, µ????e???, a name of peculiar affection for the Lord Jesus in His eternal Sonship as existing before He came into the world, and referred to as the only begotten Son, the only begotten of the Father. Joh 1:14,18; 3:16,18. It is here used as the equivalent of a Hebrew word (yachid) which signifies 'only one,' and hence 'darling,' Ge 22:2; Ps 22:20; 35:17, etc.

2. p??t?t????, applied to the Lord Jesus as 'the first-begotten,' or rather 'the firstborn' as marking His supremacy above all. The angels were called to worship Him when He was brought into the world, Heb 1:6; and He is said to be the firstborn from among the dead. Re 1:5.

conceived in Matthew 1:20 means begotten.
