I guess you can only get away with the "I'm pregnant because God did it" excuse once - and Joseph was the fall-guy

No. The bible tells us that God communicated to him in a dream that Mary was with child by the holy spirit. God also told them both, after Jesus was born, to hide in Egypt for awhile since Herod was after Jesus. God not only spoke to Mary about what He was going to do, He made sure Joseph knew, too.

No, just a man of faith! Of course the Angel visit may have also had some influance as did the "Hymen" inspection that used to be done before "Arranged" marriages were finalized. Mat. 1:18-25 John

Actually, it was the other way around. At first he believed that Mary did cheat on him, and was planning to cancel the wedding, but then he was enlightened by God.

ordinary one. God sent "Gabriel", an angel to tell him to marry her. It did not count number if she became a virgin or not. learn the bible and see what happens to a guy or woman while they're spoken to by making use of angel. Their breath leaves them, they're unable to circulate, and so forth. Ezekiel wandered around in a stupor for an entire week after God spoke to him. Joseph became obedient to God. something maximum folk in recent times are not. (and that i comprise myself. i'm as undesirable as anybody else. Worse, in fact, because of the fact i understand and that i nonetheless do issues that at the instant are not solid.Thank God for Jesus Christ.)

No, because the relationship was ordained by God, and there was no reason to believe Mary had 'cheated' on him. The BIble tells of a Prophet coming, and that He would be born of a Virgin.

He did believe it until the Angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and told him not to worry, because she was pregnant with the Son of God.

No, Christians are more naive for believing that Jesus is the son of God.

Not after receiving the vision telling him it was of God.
He at the first thought she had been with another man. God showed him otherwise.
