Gingerbread "tree" Scones

Was the Virgin Birth necessary to secure the humanity of Jesus from the corrupting taint of inherited sin? Among those who have said Yes are Gregory the Great, Ambrose, Augustine, Aquinas, and Luther. The line of descent from Adam to Jesus is partially interrupted in view of the fact that he did not have a human father. But why would he not have inherited corruption of nature from Mary? Luke tells us that it is because the Holy Spirit is responsible for Christ’s conception that the child in Mary’s womb is to be called “holy” (Lk. 1:35). Contrary to popular opinion, there is no biblical evidence to suggest that the sin nature is transmitted exclusively through the father’s seed.

INSTRUCTIONS

Follow standard scone directions (see above).  If you want, you can
score the wedges once down the center, and then on either side so  that
the scones "look like trees." I have also dotted these with  cinnamon
imperials (aka "red-hots") so it looks like berries on the  trees.
