jt: This makes lots of sense to me also - good thinking,  judyt   Slade Henson wrote: I think it's a pretty normal question, Terry. I think the discussions about the eternal Sonship could very well lead someone to wonder about eternal Motherhood. I don't think Mary was before, or eternal. I think she was the human who was chosen by God to be the vessel His Son would be born from. Just like Moses was the vessel who freed the Israelites. I think Mary died, just like we do; I don't think she was a perpetual virgin, as she had other children with her husband. I think the virgin birth was a miracle, much the same as Sarah becoming impregnated after menopause was a miracle. If a woman who no longer has a Niddah cycle can have a baby, why not a virgin? I don't think Mary even realized the Holy Spirit had come upon her, but I can't be sure. I wasn't there! :)   Kay =========================================== This may be a first on TT, Kay.  You and I are in total agreement on all the above.  That seldom happens with any two people on TT.  Terry I agree also. See, that’s at least three of us. J Izzy
