I've been really busy lately and finding time to blog has been hard, but I want everyone, all 4 or 5 of you to know I will get back to this in earnest asap. So for now, here's thought for everyone to consider and weigh in on if so led. 'Jesus had to be born of a virgin, the blood-line of God, in order to NOT be effected by the curse of Adam, and live a perfect and holy life.'
Blessings,
PJ

I saw this last week, but, I didn't have time to give an answer. Here is the thought that comes to me. It will be a bit more than you intended probably. But, it just bubbled up when I saw this.
About 18 months ago, I had a very vivid dream. Now most times I can't remember my dreams. When I have a vivid one, it usually is important to me in some way.
In the dream I was sobbing, I mean I could feel it in my heart, gut wrenching sobs, and I was speaking to the Youth Pastor of our church. I was explaining to him that it was very important that we teach our Youth (Teens) some of the basics, because when they go out into the world, to college and such, if their foundation in these things is not strong, if they "do not know that they know that they know" the basics, they could be walked all over by college professors, fellow students, new friends etc. They needed to be well educated in what they believe, so that they could own their faith and be free to have vigorous dialogue, in peace.
One of the principals was this very fact, that Jesus was born of a virgin. God HAD to be the "natural" Father, so this was the way to accomplish it! That was critical!
What haunts me about this dream, is I felt burdened to act on it, but, I wasn't sure what to do. I have thoroughly trained my sons in these things. Even more remarkable, is the following mid-week after I dreamed this, my Pastor gave a message on this very topic, that we NEED to make sure we are teaching the basics to our young people, arming them with the essential knowledge of their faith.
It really startled me to hear my dream (so to speak) in his message. Especially since it was jsut about 2 days later.
Recently, during the past 2-3 weeks this has been brought to mind again, so when I saw your post, it just really gives me pause. I will be pondering this for awhile!
Thanks for tossing this out there!
