--Made of a Woman~~
"When the fullness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the Law."

This verse in Galatians (4:4-5), is key to understanding the incarnation and God's plan of slavation. God promised in Genesis that the seed of the woman would bring salvation from sin and Satan. In God's chosen time, Christ came as Isaiah prophesied, miraculously conceived and born of the virgin.

In Galatians, Paul carefully used the Greek word ginomai, translated "made," to indicate the unique nature of Christ's entrance into the world. In fact, His human body had to be specially "prepared" by God so that He could be born with neither an inherent sin nature nor any inherited genetic defects from either parent. Jesus was truly "without blemish and without spot."

He was not only "made of a woman" but also "made under the Law" so that He could be shown to live without committing sin. Only through God's written Law do we really know what sin is.
Therefore, because He was "made under the Law" and had come "to fulfill" the Law, He can indeed redeem every sinner who will come to Him in repentance and faith.~~
