Why do we have DNA to start off as “bricks and mortars” of life? Does God have a message that we need to see from this? The apostle Paul indicated that there is:

Romans 1:20 “For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities–his eternal power and divine nature–have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.”(NIV)

Revealed in this generation

The discovery of enormously complex DNA Double Helix is one of the greatest scientific discoveries of all time. First described by James Watson and Francis Crick in 1953, DNA is the famous molecule of genetics that establishes each organism’s physical characteristics.

“With the “discovery, mapping and sequencing of the DNA molecule, we now understand that organic life is based on vastly complex information code, and such information cannot be created or interpreted without a Master Designer at the cosmic keyboard. Each human DNA molecule is comprised of chemical bases arranged in approximately 3 billion precise sequences. More appropriately, the A(adenine), T(thymine) in C(cytosine) and G(guanine) in the genetic code of the DNA molecule can be compared to the “0” and “1” in the binary code of computer software. Like software to a computer, the DNA code is a genetic language that communicates information to the organic cell. DNA molecule is an intricate message system. The material base of a message is completely independent of the information transmitted. Thus, the chemical building blocks have nothing to do with the origin of the complex message. As a simple illustration, the information content of the clause “nature was designed” has nothing to do with the writing material used, whether ink, paint, chalk or crayon. In fact, the clause can be written in binary code, Morse code or smoke signals, but the message remains the same, independent of the medium. There is obviously no relationship between the information and the material base used to transmit it. Contrary to the current theories of evolutionary scientists, the information contained within the genetic code must be entirely independent of the chemical makeup of the DNA molecule.”

The DNA is the starting point for the process of creating living beings. Our generation is blessed to know and understand the complexity of fertilization, conception, intra-uterine fetal growth/development and onwards through adulthood. But how really did this begin?

Material DNA, a prequel to spiritual DNA

Notice the process of how this material creation begins. In a nutshell, there has to be 2 distinct sex-opposite persons from where DNA has to originate as haploid gametes. There are 2 strands of DNA that has to bond into a double helix, with one strand coming from an egg of a female and the other strand from a sperm of a male. The fertilized egg then becomes a zygote which then grows and develops body components in-utero, till maturity at 9 months and then delivered. The intrauterine movements and responses of the fetus appear to be reflexes and automaticity. Keep in mind that the intra-uterine fetus is not breathing atmospheric air on its own, and blood-respiratory exchanges are through fetal circulatory mechanism via the placenta.

In Genesis, when man was created, the “flesh-composition” came from organic and inorganic material elements, aka, “dust of the ground”, but did not have life, a “living being”,until God breathe into his nostrils “the breath of life”, which is the activating and initiating energy. That “breath-of-life”, aka “spirit-of-man” did not come from the ground but came directly from spirit-composed God-Creator, by “breathing into the nostrils” and therefore “a spirit-component-of-man”.

A living person therefore has 2 components: flesh from the ground(earthy)and spirit-of-man(heavenly), without which the flesh is dead. This spirit-component is the only component that survives and goes back to the Creator when a person dies; the “real you” lives as the “rest of you” rots and dies.

Accounted as ONE person

While male and female beings have the same 2 components, i.e., flesh and spirit-of-man, they are “accounted as one flesh” as the woman came from the rib of Adam as in Genesis 2:21 In a way, male and female metaphorically are “double-stranded” together as one flesh. And as one person. Both are also figuratively assigned with a “feminine gender” as in “church/temple, bride, woman”. Likewise, Israel (northern part) was a wife to husband YHVH Elohim and divorced as in Jeremiah 3:8 as Judah (southern part) was called sister. See also 2 Corinthians 11:2
“I am jealous for you with a godly jealousy. I promised you to one husband, to Christ, so that I might present you as a pure virgin (woman)to him.” (See the division of Israel into northern and southern kingdoms in 1 Kings 11:9-13, 1 Kings 11:29-39)

Message from double-helix DNA

As man and woman are numerically considered as “one person” and as such is assigned a “feminine gender”, here now is the message that comes with the spiritual significance of material double-helix DNA in forming a spirit-composed “new creation” referred to in 2 Corinthians 5:17

“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!”

The “breath-of-life” (spirit-of-man) breathe into the nostrils of man is the “energy” that empowers the flesh-component of man to be alive. This is the “feminine spirit-component” and the female strand of the spiritual double-helix given by the Creator-God YHVH-Elohim. By itself, it will not develop into a “new spirit-composed living being”. It needs a male strand that comes from the Father. As Christ said, he needs to “go away” to receive this “new energy” (Advocate/Holy Spirit) from the Father and to subsequently “in-dwell” in us to “create new spirit-composed beings”. As Jesus said, “the spirit (of man) is willing but the flesh is weak”, meaning that the flesh is mortal, temporary and will die but the “spirit-of-man” has to get its wisdom and direction to act through the Holy Spirit that will come.

Jesus proved this to be so, himself as a “trailblazer/author/captain/finisher” receiving this Holy Spirit at River Jordan to empower him to overcome Satan, do miracles, make correct choice at garden of Gethsemane, endure crucifixion, be resurrected/declared as “Son of God” and the “firstborn of many brethren”

Now, that Jesus has proven himself as planned by the Father that this process is the only “way, truth and life”, with this “new energy” to create, he has then given this to empower first his 12 disciples then generally to others at Pentecost for them to grow and develop spiritually. The mechanism involved here is this:

The Holy Spirit/Comforter/Advocate represents the “male strand of spiritual DNA” binding as a double helix with the “female-strand”(breath-of-life”) first placed in man to live. Both are “spirit-composed” and came from above, heavenly. And from here on, the “spiritual zygote” then grows and develops “parts of spirit-body” through overcoming many challenges, nooks-and-crannies and hoops in life to reach maturity. Then, the prophecy of “woman in travail” will be fulfilled by delivery of “new spirit-composed sons and daughters of God”

Summary

The material double-helix DNA is a very complex pairing from female and male material sources that can only be programmed by an “Intelligent Designer”. This forms flesh-composed being through growth and development in-utero and into maturity in 9 months. At delivery, this infant was made alive/energized by God through an “in-dwelling” of the “breath-of-life”, and shown by breathing-in atmospheric air. The “breath-of-life/spirit-of-man” is the “female component strand, which is “spirit–composed”, having come directly from God.

However, this living being has 2-components that are in conflict with each other(Galatians 5:17) with the “spirit willing but flesh is weak” as Jesus experienced in the garden of Gethsemane. The “spirit-of-man” has to have an “Advocate/Comforter” to empower it, be guided and develop wisdom to choose good over evil.

Observe the difference among children from the same parents. The DNA that comes from parents are mere “physical/material components”. The “spirit-of-man/the mind” from God learns from “5+physical sensory organs of humans” to become the totality of its composite being. Rightly or wrongly that makes the “living being”. And, this composite is “weak” and Jesus took 3 times to see for himself that it needs another component to strengthen it.

This is why a “male component strand of spiritual DNA” , the Holy Spirit, has to be received as a gift by resurrected-Jesus from the Father. Not Jesus, nor YHVH Elohim(the Creator God in Genesis) had the authority to use this energy/power before, until after YHVH Elohim incarnated into man-Christ Jesus who then died and resurrected.

Having received the Holy Spirit(as Son of God)Jesus is then authorized/empowered to energize the formation of this double-helix with the female component strand of the “spiritual DNA” by in-dwelling in the “temple not made by hands”, the holy-of-holies/most holy place, residing in man.

From this union or bonding into a double-helix spirit-composed DNA, will grow and develop (within the “pregnancy stage”) into “spirit-composed living beings” leading to “delivery at “first resurrection” of the “first-fruits “.

Remember, as the double-helix can also split, away from each other, so can the Holy Spirit cleave away from the “spirit-of-man”. Be an “overcomer” as Christ is.

God bless🙏😇 and Happy Jewish New Year🎉
