Christ's family tree.

Today is Sunday school class, someone mentioned that they heard or read that Jesus according to the Bible could not come from Jessie, Joseph's dad. That this was foretold in the Bible. Does anyone have any insight on this?

Private Message exchange with Lional in progress regarding the technical differences between Matthew 1:1-16 (KJV) and Luke 3:23-38 (KJV.)

Did you happen to ask them where they read it or heard it?

 

[Lional]

He said someone did a sermon on it.
That it was part if the prophecies.

I believe maybe he meant Jacob or Heli father of Joseph. I put Jesse because that's what he said.
When someone brings up something like that and can't prove it through scriptures, I just simply say I didn't haven't heard that and I will look into it. I don't like letting things like that take too much time in the class. If I can't find anything out about it, I don't bring it back up at the classroom but let that person know i couldn't find anything.

Something to think about... Christ did not come from the seed of Joseph. He came from Mary's seed and The Holy Spirits power. So in a sense The Fathers seed.

So even if that person cannot find the Scripture... it's true

Yrs that is right, thanks

Joseph prince preaches a sermon about the significance of the virgin birth... I'll see if I can find it. It's really interesting and bore witness with my spirit

 

[Cturtle]

Yrs that is right, thanks

Here is the link to just a small portion of the message.... if you ever have the money to get the whole sermon... it's really good and is titled
