Every human person is created by God. That’s why we refer to the act of two people who reproduce as procreation – it’s a participation in God’s creative work.
“Fear not, for I am with you; I will bring your offspring from the east, and from the west I will gather you; I will say to the north, Give up, and to the south, Do not withhold; bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the end of the earth, every one who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made.” (Isaiah 43:5-7)
I do agree she was born of the human family in the line of David. She is still a creature, created by God.
To sin would indeed be contrary to Christ’s divine nature. I simply said that he could be tempted to sin, just as Adam and Eve were tempted. Doesn’t the Bible teach that Christ went into the desert for 40 days and was tempted by Satan? Doesn’t the Bible say “For we have not a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sinning” (Hebrews 4:15)?
A perfect human being does not a god make. The Bible refers to those in heaven as the spirts of “just men made perfect” (Hebrews 12:23). We’re told by Jesus we must be “perfect as your heavenly father is perfect” (Matthew 5:48). Being in a state of sinless perfection does not make a person a “god,” it makes them a human being as God created and intended for them to be – without the parasitic infection of sin. The angels who did not follow Satan never sinned but that in no way means they are gods or divine.
Your eloquent response in no way answers you comment of............
""Being created without sin simply means Mary is in the same state that Eve was upon her creation."
Your comment was based in Catholic dogma with the intent of saying that Mary was "created like Eve with out sin".
That is totally erroneous. It is good Catholic teaching but it is NOT Bible teaching!
Firstly, all men have sinned, including Mary, and fallen short of the glory of God [Rom 3:23], and through one man sin entered the world and death spread to all men [Rom 5:12].
We as Christian believers should alwasy READ THE BOOK and do the study to show that we are workmen, approved by God.
David writing in Psalms 51:5 says that .......
"he was brought forth in iniquity and in sin when his mother conceived him"
Mary's own grandparent gives us biblical proof of mankinds sinful nature from the time of conception.
According to the law of Moses every mother that conceived, either a male or female, had to after an appointed time offer sacrifices to God: one as a burnt offering, and one as a sin offering [Lev.12].
Mary, after conceiving Jesus made these sacrifices in accordance and obedience to the Law God gave to Moses. This is clearly indicated to us in the book of Luke chap. 2 ver. 21-24, as Mary applies this very observance as is required of every Jewish woman who conceives her first born son.
Read THE BOOK in Leviticus 12 to understand what is being said, then read Luke 2:21-24.
Once reading and understanding what is being said, it is clear that the offering Mary offers makes according to ... law of the Lord, A pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons. [Lk.2:24], ... the one for the burnt offering, and the other for a sin offering: ... [Lev. 12:8].
The sin offering Mary gives is sufficient evidence Mary's carnality.
Mary was a human, born of a union from her human mother and father.
She was born with the sin nature of ALL HUMANS and she needed a Saviour to save her from her sin!
