All bases covered "to my knowledge" but they still want to deny Christ came in the flesh.
I need to get on code according to scripture. They deny Christ came in the flesh. That is all there is to it.
Who is the 'they' who want to deny Christ came in the flesh. Jesus Christ Was God in the flesh. "Immanuel" -- God with us.
@Ivar -- responding to your post #43 -- so the legions are legions of demons?!
@ IVAR -- well -- looks like you've covered every bit of Scripture possible on the subject of the father of Jesus.
LEGALLY -- Joseph was the Jewish father of Jesus and Mary was His mother. That was Jewish law for inheritance,. Joseph and Mary were acknowledged as the parents.
HOWEVER -- Scripture Also points out that Mary did NOT become pregnant by Joseph. Joseph was NOT the biological father of Jesus. Scripture points out that the Holy Spirit came upon Mary and she conceived That way. Supernaturally.
Thus, Mary was a virgin when she conceived -- 1st and only time in the history of man that That would ever happen. Mary Ceased to be a virgin only after she and Joseph got together After Jesus was born.
And Thus, Jesus Christ Could be the Savior of mankind. IF Joseph had been the biological father, Jesus would have been born a Jewish boy just like any other Jewish boy at that time in history. And in That case -- the death of Jesus would have meant Nothing and He would not have risen from the dead on the 3rd day.
@Christ4EverHello @Ivar
Is there a post I haven't gotten to yet that maybe you have gleaned from the these two?
With the Love of Christ Jesus.

Ecc 11:5 As thou knowest not what is the way of the spirit, nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child: even so thou knowest not the works of God who maketh all.

1. Mary referred to Joseph as Christ father; When Christ said he was about his Fathers business they did not know what he was talking about.
Luk 2:48 And when they saw him, they were amazed: and his mother said unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy father and I have sought thee sorrowing.
Luk 2:49 And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father's business?
Luk 2:50 And they understood not the saying which he spake unto them.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Joseph lineage “Solomon”; not Mary, Mary lineage of Nathan
See Mat 1:6-16 Joseph lineage ; Luke 3:23-31 Mary lineage
2Sa 7:13 He shall build an house for my name, and I will stablish the throne of his kingdom for ever.

3. Philip calls Christ son of Joseph “of whom Moses and prophets wrote about”
Joh 1:45 Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. Mary and Holy Spirit not a man however Christ refers to himself as Son of Man
Joh_3:14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:
Joh_8:28 Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye
know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak
these things.

5. Man = Type of Flesh;
1Co 15:39 All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men, another
flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and another of birds.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. Man = Male/Female; Son of Man = Offspring of Male/Female ;
Gen 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him;
male and female created he them.
Gen 5:2 Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in
the day when they were created.
Gen 4:25 And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth: For
God, said she, hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. Seed is of and thru Man ;
Gen 38:9 And Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and it came to pass, when he went in unto his brother's wife, that he spilled it on the ground, lest that he should give seed to his brother.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8. Christ is seed of David; According to flesh = offspring of male and female / Seed and Womb
Rom 1:3 Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh;
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9. Christ Had to be made like his people
Heb 2:17 Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10. Just Defined: based on or behaving according to what is morally right and fair.
What did Joseph wrongly or immorally do and not willing to make Mary Publick Example?
Mat 1:18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was
espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.
Mat 1:19 Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily.

1Jn 4:2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is
come in the flesh is of God:
1Jn 4:3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
All mainstream Abrahamic Faiths say not come in the Flesh: Judaism say not come in the Flesh "yet"; Both Muslims and Christians say not come in the flesh. "by denying flesh of Joseph"
Muslims believe that Jesus (called 'Isa in Arabic) was the son of Mary, and was conceived without the intervention of a human father.
The Immaculate Conception is the conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary free from original sin by virtue of the merits of her son Jesus Christ. The Catholic Church teaches that God acted upon Mary in the first moment of her conception keeping her "immaculate".
