Why was Mary Chosen?

You might not believe it, but Luke Chapter One is one of the most theologically, doctrinally, and prophetically packed passages anywhere in Scripture. This video covers just Luke 1:26-30, where the Virgin Mary meets Gabriel. Subsequent videos will cover more of Mary’s response to Gabriel’s news, that she was selected to bear the Messiah, Jesus Christ. There is detail here that should edify and challenge us in our faith. It's very interesting that in Luke 1:19, Gabriel says of himself that he stands in the presence of God. This leads scholars to believe Gabriel may be one of the four angels that surround the throne in Revelation Chapter four. Gabriel is a teaching and an encourager and exhorter. When Gabriel appears, the only thing he delivers is information about the coming of the Messiah. We only have three people in the Bible to which Gabriel appears: Daniel in Daniel Chapters 8 to 12, Zacharias in Luke 1:11-20, and Mary, who would be the virgin mother of the Lord Jesus Christ.
