Answer me one thing Mystic. Why did Jesus Christ leave His abode in Heaven and become a man as we are on this earth?
What exactly necessitated that?
Simple. God is Spirit - read consciousness. Humans are supposed to produce consciousness compatible with God's consciousness. NONE of us were remotely close to doing it and we still are not. We were ALL "missing the mark" (sinning), so God sent us Jesus with a Human consciousness to do it for us. He was enormously successful by achieving agape love that is in PERFECT resonance (IDENTITY) with God and we all reap the benefits of His accomplishment because His human consciousness (Spirit) is part of our collective human consciousness and connects us ALL to God's consciousness (Holy Spirit). That is how He is the Way to God.
By His physical death and rebirth as pure Spirit (Holy Spirit), He now abides with us all within our consciousness as the Comforter in His name to guide us to the Truth God has "written in our hearts." All we need to do is follow His instructions to His disciples to love God and each other every day and repent when we don't to have His perfect agape love (Grace) as cover for our imperfections. We can expect to be reborn as Spirit upon our physical death, as Jesus was, and we will join God and Jesus (after any necessary refining out of the dross within our consciousness). Everything else in the religions is the invention of primitive human imagination and perversity driven by the desire for power and control over others, NOT what Jesus taught or advocated.
The babies who were the first born of Egypt were undermining the work of god? Babies? A heathen interpretation of life.
After all the plagues, and announcing through Moses that He would take the firstborn of Egypt, Pharaoh still refused to let Gods people go so they could worship God and fulfil their destiny.
Yes, that's exactly what Pharaoh was doing, undermining Gods work.

If you study the Hebrew word "hardened" you will discover that Pharaoh heart was already hardened.
He was determined and hardened. When the scripture says, and God hardened his heart" it means that God gave him over to his hardness by sealing it so.
In other words God gave Pharaoh over to his own wishes.
Wrong, that is not what is says at all. Nice try at justifying it though. Your god critter hardened the Pharaoh's heart according to the mythology you believe in. You can't explain it away.

I'm afraid you're wrong sir, but have it your way!
