If these people would actually read something, they might avoid making some truly basic and embarrassing mistakes...

...but why would they, since they are "two thousand years smarter" than some of the greatest thinkers born of the human race?

Here is Benny Hinn debunking the Immaculate Conception by arguing that Jesus had no genetic connection with his mother -



So, Hinn is basically saying that Jesus is not Jewish.

He is, you know, because if Jesus was not genetically, and, therefore, "racially," related to his mother and his mother was a Jew, then Jesus was not a Jew, particularly since Judaism traces the Jewish lineage through the mother.

Hinn should have consulted with St. Augustine before engaging in this bit of bone-headed theology.  If he had he would have been offered this insight:

 "It was also a mark of the justice and goodness of God that the devil should be outdone by the same rational creature as he congratulated himself on outdoing, and outdone by one man issuing from that race, which he had held the whole of in his power because its origin had been vitiated by one man. 18,

23. God could of course have taken a man to himself from somewhere else, to be in him the mediator of God and men (1 Tm 2:5), not from the race of that Adam who had implicated the human race in his own sin, just as he did not create the one he first created from the race of another. In the same way, or any other way he wished, he could have created another one to conquer the conqueror of the first. But God judged it better to take a man to himself from the very race that had been conquered, in order through him to conquer the enemy of the human race; to take one however whose conception from a virgin was inaugurated by the spirit not the flesh, by faith not lust. There was no desire of the flesh involved, which the rest of men who contract original sin are begotten and conceived by; it was utterly absent when holy virginity conceived by believing not by embracing, so that what was there born of the stock of the first man would only derive from him a racial not a criminal origin."

In contrast, Hinn has God creating another human from a different race - not part of the race that was conquered by Satan.

And, yet, interestingly he affirms the insight that supports the doctrine of the Immaculate Conception - the mother of Jesus, the mother of God, was without sin.
