To show that Jesus went through everything without ever sinning, if he skipped straight to adult hood his death wouldn't have been of any significance.
He could have been created as a baby then....and not born. ================== Also I am still wiating for Ladien to answer about Jesus(AS) being a person.
Yes, Sayf, but only by being respectful and proving your point. And Denz, I do not understand how this could relate to his death (not in the direct way, anyways).
Guys, stay on topic. My partial answer to Ladien's latest post is that God had sent prophets before, recognized by both Islam and Christianity, (and Judaism). So divinity can present its message through a human.
Couldn't he just do that with a human , as in give him messages. Like for example Moses(AS) , God gave him his messages to give his people yet he was not his son....
he's God, it's possible. He can do mostly everything. Since God wasn't actually the father (Joseph was) so God technically isn't the son of God. He choose Joseph and Mary to have Jesus.
Wow, I always thought in Christainity they believed in Mary's virginity. And again I think lots of CHristains would disgaree with you on this one. ============ Neverless, how could someone be God's son if he was gotten by two parents...according to you?
