+
Mary was a young Jewish girl engaged to Joseph, a carpenter. Like any young woman, she probably had her life planned: marriage, bearing children, raising a family, growing old with Joseph, one day enjoying her own grandchildren and perhaps great-grandchildren.<br>
+
 
+
Mary had no hint that she had been selected to experience a monumental, life-changing event, a major step that would be part of the overarching Plan of God, affecting all peoples—past, present and future.<br>
+
 
+
At a point, Mary came face to face with an archangel named Gabriel, whom God sent to Nazareth, a small town in Galilee, to carry out a special mission. &ldquo;Hail, you who are highly favored,&rdquo; he greeted young Mary. &ldquo;The Lord is with you: blessed are you among women&rdquo; (Luke 1:28).<br>
+
 
+
Mary was familiar with Old Testament accounts of God-fearing men and women who had encountered angels. Now she was standing before such a being. Naturally, she was startled, rendered virtually speechless. After all, God rarely sends angels to appear before human beings.<br>
+
 
+
As Gabriel watched her struggle to find the right words to respond he said, &ldquo;Fear not, Mary: for you have found favor with God&rdquo; (Luke 1:29-30).<br>
+
 
+
While Mary found favor <em>with</em> God, this verse says nothing about being &ldquo;<em>full of grace</em>&rdquo; or being able to &ldquo;<em>extend grace</em>&rdquo; to another. Nor does any other verse in God&rsquo;s Word say any such thing. This belief is simply not supported by Scripture.<br>
+
 
+
Mary was a person of honorable character. Adultery and all other forms of promiscuity were common during the time she lived—yet Mary saved her virginity for her future husband. Also, rather than rebel against God, she submitted to His will, calling herself a &ldquo;handmaid of the Lord&rdquo; (Luke 1:38), despite rumors that she was an unwed mother.<br>
+
 
+
However, Mary was not holy or without sin, as popular doctrine asserts. The Bible clearly states that, with the exception of Jesus Christ, &ldquo;There is <em>none</em> righteous, no, not one,&rdquo; and &ldquo;<em>all</em> have sinned, and come short of the glory of God&rdquo; (Rom. 3:10, 23).<br>
+
 
+
On one occasion, Jesus was approached by a certain ruler who asked Him, &ldquo;Good Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?&rdquo; (Luke 18:18). Jesus&rsquo; response? &ldquo;Why call you Me good? <em>None</em> is good, save [except] one, that is, God&rdquo; (Luke 18:19).<br>
+
 
+
Take note. If Christ&rsquo;s mother was &ldquo;holy&rdquo; or &ldquo;sinless,&rdquo; surely He would have mentioned it—yet He did not.<br>
+
 
+
When a woman praised Jesus&rsquo; mother in His presence, what was His response? &ldquo;Yes <em>rather</em>, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it&rdquo; (Luke 11:28).<br>
+
 
+
Mary strove to obey God. Nevertheless, like any other human being, she was subject to the pulls and weaknesses of the flesh, and therefore sinned, as do all.<br>
+
  
She knew and understood that she too needed a Savior (Luke 1:46-47).<br>
+
<p>"The bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world...I came down from heaven" (John 6:33,38).</p>
 +
<p>These words, and others like them, are misused to support the wrong idea that Jesus physically existed in Heaven before his birth. The following points, however, must be noted:</p>
 +
<p>1. Trinitarians take these words as literal in order to prove their point.</p>

<p>However, if we are to take them literally, then this means that somehow</p>

<p>Jesus literally floated down through the skies. Not only is the Bible totally silent about this, but the language of Jesus being conceived as a baby in Mary's womb is made meaningless. Jn.6:60 describes the teaching about the manna as a saying "hard to take in" (Moffatt's Translation); i.e. we need to understand that it is figurative language being used.</p>
 +
<p>2. In John 6, Jesus is explaining how the manna was a type of himself. The manna was sent from God in the sense that it was God who was responsible for creating it on the earth; it did not physically float down from the throne of God in Heaven. Thus Christ's coming from Heaven is to be understood likewise; he was created on earth, by the Holy Spirit acting upon the womb of Mary (Lk.1:35).</p>
 +
<p>3. Jesus says that "the bread that I will give is my flesh" (Jn.6:51).</p>
 +
<p>Trinitarians claim that it was the 'God' part of Jesus which came down from Heaven. But Jesus says that it was his "flesh" which was the bread which came down from Heaven. Likewise Jesus associates the bread from Heaven with himself as the "Son of man" (Jn.6:62), not 'God the Son'.</p>
 +
<p>4. In this same passage in John 6 there is abundant evidence that Jesus was not equal to God. "The living Father hath sent me" (Jn.6:57) shows that Jesus and God do not share co-equality; and the fact that "I live by the Father" (Jn.6:57) is hardly the 'co-eternity' of which Trinitarians speak.</p>
 +
<p>5. It must be asked, When and how did Jesus 'come down' from Heaven?</p>
 +
<p>Trinitarians use these verses in John 6 to 'prove' that Jesus came down from Heaven at his birth. But Jesus speaks of himself as "he which cometh down from heaven" (Jn 6:33,50), as if it is an ongoing process. Speaking of God's gift of Jesus, Christ said "My Father is giving you the bread" from Heaven (Jn 6:32 Weymouth). At the time Jesus was speaking these words, he had already 'come down' in a certain sense, in that he had been sent by God.</p>
 +
<p>Because of this, he could also speak in the past tense: "I am the living bread which came down from Heaven" (Jn 6:51). But he also speaks about 'coming down' as the bread from Heaven in the form of his death on the cross: "The bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world" (Jn 6:51). So we have Jesus speaking here of having already come down from Heaven, being in the process of 'coming down', and still having to 'come down' in his death on the cross. This fact alone should prove that 'coming down' refers to God manifesting Himself, rather than only referring to Christ's birth. This is conclusively proved by all the Old Testament references to God 'coming down' having just this same meaning. Thus God saw the affliction of His people in Egypt, and 'came down' to save them through Moses. He has seen our bondage to sin, and has 'come down' or manifested Himself, by sending Jesus as the equivalent to Moses to lead us out of sin.</p>

The Origin of Jesus"

"The bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world...I came down from heaven" (John 6:33,38).

These words, and others like them, are misused to support the wrong idea that Jesus physically existed in Heaven before his birth. The following points, however, must be noted:

1. Trinitarians take these words as literal in order to prove their point.

However, if we are to take them literally, then this means that somehow

Jesus literally floated down through the skies. Not only is the Bible totally silent about this, but the language of Jesus being conceived as a baby in Mary's womb is made meaningless. Jn.6:60 describes the teaching about the manna as a saying "hard to take in" (Moffatt's Translation); i.e. we need to understand that it is figurative language being used.

2. In John 6, Jesus is explaining how the manna was a type of himself. The manna was sent from God in the sense that it was God who was responsible for creating it on the earth; it did not physically float down from the throne of God in Heaven. Thus Christ's coming from Heaven is to be understood likewise; he was created on earth, by the Holy Spirit acting upon the womb of Mary (Lk.1:35).

3. Jesus says that "the bread that I will give is my flesh" (Jn.6:51).

Trinitarians claim that it was the 'God' part of Jesus which came down from Heaven. But Jesus says that it was his "flesh" which was the bread which came down from Heaven. Likewise Jesus associates the bread from Heaven with himself as the "Son of man" (Jn.6:62), not 'God the Son'.

4. In this same passage in John 6 there is abundant evidence that Jesus was not equal to God. "The living Father hath sent me" (Jn.6:57) shows that Jesus and God do not share co-equality; and the fact that "I live by the Father" (Jn.6:57) is hardly the 'co-eternity' of which Trinitarians speak.

5. It must be asked, When and how did Jesus 'come down' from Heaven?

Trinitarians use these verses in John 6 to 'prove' that Jesus came down from Heaven at his birth. But Jesus speaks of himself as "he which cometh down from heaven" (Jn 6:33,50), as if it is an ongoing process. Speaking of God's gift of Jesus, Christ said "My Father is giving you the bread" from Heaven (Jn 6:32 Weymouth). At the time Jesus was speaking these words, he had already 'come down' in a certain sense, in that he had been sent by God.

Because of this, he could also speak in the past tense: "I am the living bread which came down from Heaven" (Jn 6:51). But he also speaks about 'coming down' as the bread from Heaven in the form of his death on the cross: "The bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world" (Jn 6:51). So we have Jesus speaking here of having already come down from Heaven, being in the process of 'coming down', and still having to 'come down' in his death on the cross. This fact alone should prove that 'coming down' refers to God manifesting Himself, rather than only referring to Christ's birth. This is conclusively proved by all the Old Testament references to God 'coming down' having just this same meaning. Thus God saw the affliction of His people in Egypt, and 'came down' to save them through Moses. He has seen our bondage to sin, and has 'come down' or manifested Himself, by sending Jesus as the equivalent to Moses to lead us out of sin.
