I could. He did not have David's blood and it is not
David's blood that cleanses anyones conscience from
dead works to serve the living God. His was the
blood of the eternal covenant. It is supernatural from
beginning to end and this is why it will never lose
it's power.
What person among us indwelt with the Holy Spirit
could deny that Jesus Christ was born with David's blood running through his
veins?

"Men and brethren, let me speak freely to you
of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his tomb is
with us to this day. Therefore, being a prophet, and knowing that
God had sworn with an oath to him that of the fruit of his body, according
to the flesh, He would raise up the Christ to sit on his throne,"
(Acts 2.29-30).
Although it was by way of his adoption by Joseph that
he was qualified to sit on the thrown, it was not by way of adoption that
Jesus became the Seed of David: that came to him "according to the flesh":
"Has not the Scripture said that the Christ comes from the
seed (sperma) of David and from the town of Bethlehem, where David was?"
(Joh 7.42).
"... concerning His Son Jesus Christ our Lord, who was born
of the seed (sperma) of David according to the flesh," (Rom 1.3).
"Remember that Jesus Christ, of the seed (sperma) of David,
was raised from the dead according to my gospel," (2Tim 2.8).

Are you saying, Judy, that Mary is not of
David's lineage? You had better think this through, as Jesus absolutely
must be of the Seed of Abraham, which passes through David on its way to
the fulfillment of the promise in Christ. "Now to Abraham and his Seed
were the promises made. He does not say, 'And to seeds,' as of many, but
as of one, 'And to your Seed,' who is Christ" (Gal 2.16). And it is not
by way of adoption that Abraham's Seed finds fulfillment in Christ. That
would be a blasphemous thought: "What purpose then does the
law serve? It was added because of transgressions, till the
Seed should come to whom the promise was made" (Gal
2.19).
You know, Judy, you always say "Show me in
Scripture." Well, you have been shown. Now, is that all smoke, or are
you going to live by your words?

Luke
writes that Jesus was born of the fruit of David's genitals (Act
2.30):
Not
exactly Bill "David being a prophet and knowing that God had sworn
with an oath to him,
that of
the fruit of his loins,
according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his
throne."
Right, so
in Matt we have a genealogy that shows Joseph is in David's
lineage but he is
hardly
the biological father of Jesus is he? Even though Jesus is
born in his lineage.
hence he was not some kind of new humanity,
freshly brewed with new material, unrelated to fallen
humankind;
No, he is
human like David was human, born on our side of the
fall.
He did
not come to this earth through procreation Bill. He did not have a
human father - He may have been
born on this side of the fall but he was most definitely
not born fallen. One can not be fallen and holy ATST
And to the naysayers Jesus said, "Before Abraham
was, I AM"; hence Jesus pre-dated even Abraham, David'
predecessor. But it was not his humanity which pre-dated
David; it was his divinity. And notice: he did not say that his
Father was the I AM, and that he was copying him.
No, Jesus said that he (and this before his glorification)
is I AM; that is, Yahweh, the LORD who
covenants with Abraham.
So?? Noone here disputes his
heritage.
Jesus is FULLY GOD and fully man,
two realities in one person, united -- but make
him anything less than God or anything more than
man and you are courting a demon, who is powerless to save
you.
Either that or you are courting
religious spirits who are filling your head with the doctrines
they have been promoting for
thousands of years. He doesn't have to be fully anything. He
is who the Word of God
says He is - which is the Word
made flesh.
