Mary got pregnant through emasculate conception not through sex.

God is Pure Spirit!
-------------------------
His being is absolutely simple with no composition of parts.
His intellect, His power, His goodness, His love, and His beauty are all one and the same as each other and are all one and the same as His being.
His essence is His own existence.
So no, God has no reproductive organs|
He has no organs at all, because He is not composed of parts.
The Virgin Birth was literally real.
Mary was Virgin before, during, and after the birth of Jesus|
It is a miracle, but if God created all things from nothing, then certainly He can do something with something|

No God does not have reproductive organs, he is a spirit, and we must worship him in spirit and truth. Yes, the virgin birth did happen, God, by his active power [spirit] he transfered the life of Jesus to the womb of Mary, [sort of like in-vitro fertlization] so that Jesus could be born a perfect human, like Adam was created a perfect human, with the qualities of God and Jesus, the ability to love, think, feel.

Well most people refer to God as having a gender, and that has some obvious implications.
But yeah, I think the virgin birth did happen literally. I mean we live in an age where invitro fertilization happens all the time, our doctors could easily make a virgin pregnant if they wanted to, so why couldn't God do the same?

Your question and element are an outstanding social gathering of utilising concepts not utilized by technique of the authors of the Gospels and Acts and absolutely not understood by technique of their readers. Matthew a million:18-25 and Luke a million:26-38, (in certain Luke a million:34) explicitly state Mary's condition bodily not metaphorically. the keyword in verse 34 from the Greek is "epei aner ou ginosko" translated as "on account that guy not I-AM-understanding". The Greek be conscious ginosko is used to translate a Jewish idiom for sexual pastime between a guy and a lady into Greek. The Greek be conscious on your theory is gnosis (that is also an English be conscious.) regrettably, we are able to not state impacts that are literally not there. The Gospels in Greek translates Hebrew concepts, not Buddhist. answer: Do you truly believe you'll hit upon Zen ideas interior the Gospels?

If you mean God, unknown.
If you mean God in the flesh(jesus), yes.
Virgin birth, yes. It was prophecied centuries in advance, and the details do back it up. An in-depth study of the messianic prophecies would point out how perfectly God fullfilled His own coming.
It doesn't really matter if He has reproductive organs, does it?

Since God created Man in his own image, which can be literal, yes. If it was figurative then God had an imagination. Virgin birth, you never heard of insemination.

I believe the virgin birth happened exactly as the scriptures describe it. Do I believe that God had to have sex with Mary to achieve this... no i do not.
Consider this is the Almighty God of creation who spoke the universe and the worlds into being.... with that power and authority.... in order to impregnate Mary.... it would have been no more difficult for him than to say.... so be it..... and it would be.

If the Christian God does not have male genitalia, then why is it said he created Adam (a male) in his image? Why in all their appearances have the angels been males? And then there is the story of the angels taking human women as wives and producing a race of giants. They had to be males in order to do that.
Of course if the conception happened in the standard way, then Mary wouldn't have been a virgin.

God did not have sex. No. The child was conceived of the Holy Spirit. The son himself is a part of the whole of God and existed before the birth of baby Jesus.
