Did Jesus have a biological father?

Post by Bluejay4 »

If we looked at Jesus's DNA what would we see? Godly DNA? Spiritual DNA? Human DNA perhaps?

Did you just ask if Jesus had a biological father?
John 5:24
24 “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.

...yes? Perhaps Mary acted as both parents, sort of like a genetic clone.

David Pawson who does a lot of teaching on unlocking the bible thinks it was combination of mary's egg and God's 'sperm'. That God took both and mixed them together somehow. Sounds a bit :shock: but he's better at explaining it than me ;)

But isn't that implying Jesus is not only a created being but some sort of God-human hybrid?

He was conceived by the Holy Spirit, I think.

He was fully God through the HS and fully human through Mary.

Annette,

If you notice my quote of your post, I liked it by saying, "Bingo". Liking your post with a thumbs up, is kinda redundant.

I actually took the time to quote you, and respond. That means I liked your post much more than if I pressed a stupid thumb icon!!!! :mrgreen:

He had a human body, so human DNA - I guess God made the other half of it.

I think, somewhere, on the shroud thread bippy mentions something about DNA findings.

Will see if I can find it.

yes, I remember this .. or at least I remember a blood type had been established. The Human body (Mary) - God's Spirit, in the person of Jesus.

It's actually quite strange, in our day and age of scientific endeavor, while some searching for physical proofs for God, we can potentially establish the humanity of Christ, the Man God from some 2000 years ago, but come no closer to the God, the One we aspire to spiritually. Belief requires Grace, Faith requires persistence and love guides them all.
Trust the past to God’s mercy, the present to God’s love, and the future to God’s providence. -St Augustine
