Did Mary have other children after Jesus? Was Mary a virgin her whole life? The Catholic Church teaches the perpetual virginity of Mary, and in this episode Kenny Burchard and Catholic apologist Dave Armstrong build a biblical case for it that most people have never heard. It's called the holy ground argument. No "brothers of Jesus" debate this time. The argument starts at the burning bush and ends at a locked gate in the book of Ezekiel, a gate that Augustine, Jerome, and Ambrose all said settles the question. And here's a fact that surprises almost everyone: Luther, Calvin, Zwingli, and the Wesleys believed in Mary's perpetual virginity too.
