Dear friends:
Do you still have doubts about virgin birth of Jesus? If advanced science could have achieved creating baby girl only one year younger than her mom, then, is there anything difficult for God our Creator to do?

Where did our lives come from? God our Creator is the One who gave us our lives to start with.

Jesus is the reason for this season, it is a pity that He is still outside of many people's hearts while they celebrate Christmas!

Woman Gives Birth to Child Who Is Only a Year Younger Than She Is
Tina Wren went to the National Embryo Donation Center in Knoxville, Tennessee, where they received a donated embryo. It turns out, that embryo had been created through IVF and frozen 24-years earlier...
Tina and her husband Benjamin married seven years ago, but the couple assumed they could not have biological children because Benjamin has cystic fibrosis, which often results in infertility. They fostered a few children, until Tina's father suggested embryo adoption.
Tina gave birth to the baby she received. She told reporters, "This embryo and I could have been. This is the process by which couples who use in vitro fertilization (IVF) donate unused frozen embryos to other couples. The Wrens went to the National Embryo Donation Center in Knoxville, Tennessee, where they received a donated embryo. It turns out, that embryo had been created through IVF and frozen 24-four years earlier.
...The baby who was born to die
...If it were not necessary for Jesus to be born in Bethlehem's stable and die on Calvary's cross, he would not have done so. Our Savior gave up splendor in heaven beyond our ability to imagine (cf. Revelation 4:2-11) to become a helpless infant born to peasant parents and laid in a rough feed trough. His life on earth was marked by weariness (John 4:6; Matthew 8:24), homelessness (Matthew 8:20), and rejection by his own family (Mark 3:21; John 7:5) and the crowds he served (Matthew 27:23). He suffered horrific torture (John 19:1) and execution (v. 23).
Worst of all, he bore our sins on his sinless soul (2 Corinthians 5:21), a cost none of us can begin to understand.
I fear that we take Christmas for granted. Many in our culture ignore Jesus' birth completely, while others pause only briefly to consider his incarnational sacrifice before proceeding to open presents, eat a meal, and watch football. Even those who are most devoted to him can all too easily overlook the price he paid to become one of us that we might be one with him.
But if there were another way to save our lost souls, Jesus would have taken it. He was the only baby in all of human history who knew His life and death before His birth. And He would be born to die all over again, just for you.When last did you thank Christ for Christmas?
