Spirit matter has no DNA.
If we don't know what spirit matter is, we sure as heck don't know if it has DNA or not.
We are spirit children of Father.
That's what they say. Just because they say it doesn't mean it's so.
He formed (not birthed) our spirit bodies (may not even require a Mother?) of existing spirit matter.
You don't know that for sure either. But way to sideline the females of the species without ever dropping a reference or a scripture. We always knew we were useless, but now you've proved it.
Christ is a completely mortal offspring (through Mary's and Father's unique DNA) and is "The Only Begotten of the Father in the flesh". However, he is much more!!
Have you been listening? It appears your theory just got busted, since the lineage has to come through JOSEPH, not Mary, in order for the prophecy to be fulfilled.
The more is that:
3) he had the ability to die by choice
So does everyone else. It's called suicide.
2) he had the ability to resurrect himself
Or to have God do the heavy lifting. And this is something we will all do, if our scriptures are correct.
1) he had the ability to be sinless
So does every child. And I think you'll find that "sinless" isn't exactly... sinless.
No other mortal has any of those qualities.
Try again, especially with 3.
If I missed your point or did not communicate my understanding effectively then I will gladly try again. I thank you for your question.
It might help if you had some foundation, some references, some scriptures to support your post.
