Please direct us to a human concieved without a human father. I'd like to me them.
Including jesus... there is no such human on this earth.
The meaning of -- jesus said -- my father is heavenly father -- is something else.

Jesus is married to His Church.

Just as wives must be submissive to their husbands as the head of the family, husbands must love their wives sacrificially, as Christ loves the Church:
Eph. 5:25,28 – just as wives must submit to their husbands, husbands must “love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her…husbands should love their wives as their own bodies.” Just as the Church is legally and morally obligated to submit to Christ, wives are obligated to submit to their husbands. This is why Paul makes the comparison between husbands and Christ, wives and the Church.

Eph. 5:33 – “let each one of you love his wife as himself.”

the husband is the head of his family and has God-given authority over his wife and children. This gift of authority does not give a husband any greater dignity than his wife. Both are equal members of the marital covenant, as is reflected by God creating woman from the side of man (as opposed to his head or feet). Instead, this order of authority reflects the divine order between God, Christ and man. God blessed the marital covenant with this order to maintain peace and harmony in the family, the “domestic church.” Just as Christ is the Head of the Church (the family of God), so the father is the head of his domestic church (his family).

The wedding theme is all over the Bible. I recommend this book:
First Comes Love: Finding Your Family in the Church and the Trinity
You can order a used copy for as little as $.02.

Jesus having a single wife is contrary to the whole Bible message.

It is hinted he was in Matt. 8:14:yes:

i think that is Peters mother-in-law who was sick lying down. Peter was a married man.

If it was Jesus own mother-in-law she why would she have been lying down in Peters house and not her own family home?
 
I think Jesus had three wives... and a man-lover...

Who knows?

The three wives would be Mary Magdalene, and the two sisters Mary and Martha. The beloved disciple of Jesus was a male, and is referenced in the Bible as the most beloved disciple, who rested on his chest... :D

It goes totally against Jewish customs of the time for the mother-in-law to serve guests in her son-in-laws home. That is the job of the wife of Peter, not the mother-in-law. So where was Peter's wife? She was most likely dead.

What was Peter's mother-in-law doing there? She probably had no place to go where she could be cared for.

You're kidding me aren't you? :facepalm:

The same account of Matt 8:14-17 is recorded in Mark 1:29-31 and Luke 4:38-41, Read in context, it clarifies who's mother-in-law Jesus healed.



The Bible is not an historical document. So anything goes with it.

Show me a document from antiquity, that has more internal and external evidence than the New Testament.

.. or should I make it easier for you and say "show me ANY document in world history, that has more internal and external evidence than the New Testament."

Showing you anything that's not of your liking would be time wasted.


The NT says you are Gods' son, soooo start raising the dead from cemeteries.

It was really unyeilding/unfruitful DATE trees that Jesus went around cursing.

Early church fathers retranslated them into fig trees,
to avoid scandal.

Have you ever read the works of first century Jewish historians Flavius Josephus or Philo of Alexandria? Perhaps you should if you want information that is much more accurate (and backed up by archaeological evidence) than that found in the New Testament. You do know that there is NO archaeological evidence that the biblical Jesus ever existed, don't you? In fact, there is no evidence that a Jewish village existed at Nazareth in the early first century. The only evidence found there shows that the location was a first century Roman military camp. So much for your "internal and external evidence" from the New Testament.

Hey Tell, "auction wars" was from Rancho Cucamonga the other night.

I have not seen "auction wars". Which network is it on? Did you put bids in on any Rancho Cucamonga treasures? There is a story from the early years about a founder burying his treasure in the mountain just north of the present city to keep it away from some bandits. He was killed and the treasure was supposedly never found.

Spike I think. They found Jack Binion's dough.
