1st Sunday of Advent | Joseph – The Chain of Bondage is Broken
Matthew 1:18-25

Was the virgin birth a demonstration the great power of God? Does a virgin birth show us that Jesus' birth was a prophetic miracle? These two views are often referenced by many as the primary reason for this strange and awesome phenomena. No matter what evidence can be produced, the virgin origin of Jesus’ birth will never be repeated, because it is not a simple freak of nature or simply a miracle. Jesus birth had to be of a virgin and of a seed that is divine. The great significance of Jesus’ virgin birth lies in how this physical event fulfilled a spiritual need which exists in all mankind. We see Joseph acting in a highly righteous manner toward Mary. Though his actions were noble from a human viewpoint, this would not bring about a remedy to the need of all mankind. Only a complete, God/man, a “New Adam,” could fulfill God’s great plan of redemption. Only by a virgin birth could God break the chain of sin and engage the chain of redemption.
