In fact, Mary did give birth to many more children apart from Jesus Christ. Mary was no more than a maidservant of the Lord who fulfilled her given role. After giving birth to Jesus, she bore more children with Joseph. In obedience to the Word of God, the Virgin Mary had especially given birth to Baby Jesus Christ, and the Bible describes this as giving birth to her firstborn Son, lest the people in the following generation might have misconceptions about Mary and call her “the Queen of Heaven.” If this Mary had given birth only to Baby Jesus and bore no more children, then everyone in the following generations would have venerated her even more than Jesus Christ. The whole world would have served a woman, who was never God’s wife, as a goddess. It was to prevent this that God had made Mary give birth to more children with her husband Joseph. So in the Bible, there is an account of Jesus’ mother and brothers visiting Him, where Jesus said to the messenger from them, “‘Who is My mother and who are My brothers?’ And He stretched out His hand toward His disciples and said, ‘Here are My mother and My brothers! For whoever does the will of My Father in heaven is My brother and sister and mother’” (Matthew 12:48-50).
My fellow believers, God already knew what the ignorant people would do. We should be thankful for the fact the King of kings came to this earth, and we must have the faith to believe this King of kings is the Savior who came to save us from sin through the gospel of the water and the Spirit. In this world there are all kinds of religions. There are as many insignificant things as there is dust in this world, and many times the Devil blows untenable things to our minds and brings countless worries to us. However, for those of us who believe in Jesus Christ, the King of kings came and made it possible to overcome all these challenges by our faith, believing that He has saved us through the gospel of the water and the Spirit. There are many evil challenges that torment us, make us fall into the weakness of the flesh, and threaten us. We must defeat them all by placing our faith in the righteousness of God and His love.
Satan continues to work in our dreams and in our human minds that have no faith in the Truth. The Devil works in mankind like a roaring lion. In times like this, we must defeat Satan by our faith in the gospel Truth of the water and the Spirit. What kind of people are you and I? We are the ones who have received the remission of sins, who have been completely washed from our sins by believing in the gospel of the water and the Spirit. We are the ones who have become God’s sons and daughters. As the King of kings came to this earth and saved us from the sins of the world, we have become God’s children by faith. As such, we must defeat the work of Satan in the name of Jesus Christ, and by believing in the gospel of the water and the Spirit, the Word of God. We must thus live a spiritual life of faith and win our fight. As you and I carry on with our lives in this world, there are times when Satan tries to work in our carnal thoughts. Sometimes he also comes in our dreams and brings us worries and anxieties. Sometimes he persecutes us and stands against us through those controlled by evil spirits, and sometimes he brings us worries through various circumstances. In such times, we must overcome the Devil by placing our faith in the Word of Truth.
