       Ultimately, though, not all believe Christ was born by God, obviously, and this was true even in Jesus' day. When Jesus was having a discussion with the Pharisees on one occasion, they accused him of being born of sexual immorality, and that this, somehow, made him a lesser person (see John 8). It is never true, even if a person is born of sexual immorality, that that person is somehow a lesser person. Anyway, the Pharisees in their belief ended up blaspheming the Holy Spirit. So let's focus in on the actual birth of Christ, and the timeline of events that took place surrounding our Lord's birth. Bear in mind that Jesus was actually born probably around 4 to 7 B.C. The birth of Jesus is recorded in two of the four Gospels, that is both Matthew and Luke record it. Mark and John did not give an account of the birth of Christ. The account of the wise men, which appears at the beginning of Matthew 2, actually did not occur at the birth of Christ, but sometime later.
