Stereotype, David? I have the greatest respect for you, your family and your
ministry! I do have a little fun from time to time, David.

LOL. Lance, it is not recanting. You are just starting to understand me
a
little better. As I said before, all of us are engaged in the work of
interpreting Scripture. However, some of us also receive revelation from
time to time. That revelation is in part. None of us have the entire
picture. When we come together in love and share, our understanding
increases. I'm glad you are starting to see the bigger picture and
relinquishing your stereotype of me.

DM says of Judy, 'your interpretation'! As he placed himself alongside JT
on
the 'inspiration/illumination' thingy then, once again I commend him for
recanting.

David, I don't see the immaculate conception and
the assumption of Mary as divinely inspired ideas;
both are the thinking of religious spirits through men
of the cloth.
I'm glad to hear that, but history tells us that those who embrace the
premise which you have will be forced eventually either to abandon their
premise or accept the logical consequence of their thinking that Mary
herself had to be different too.

Also I believe that going on and on about David's
genitals is equally bizarre. What is too difficult for
God? Does he have to do things the same way
every time?
We must start with the premise that God did it this way because the Bible
teaches us that he did it this way. Then we seek to understand it. As
we
do, we come to an understanding of justice and God's legal system that
helps
us understand it. We also come to understand the full extent of
salvation,
and how salvation culminated at the cross, but was not entirely
accomplised
only by what happened at the cross. There is so much more that could be
said, but not enough time to say it all. My point is only that God could
do
it in many different ways, but we are taught in Scripture how he did it.
We
should accept that.

Scripture says Jesus was born of the woman and

the first Adam. This is what I believe.
The last part, "without the taint of the first Adam," is not in the
Bible.
It is your interpretation of the word "holy." My perspective is that the
taint of the first Adam being resident within the physical body does not
automatically make a person unholy. Else, how could John the Baptist be
filled with the Holy Ghost from his mother's womb?
As for the rest of what you said, I agree. Jesus was born of the woman
and
was pure and holy.
