Summary: The blood is the only way but why?

A. The process of a natural birth starts at conception when the sperm fertilizes the egg. It is within this process that everything is exchanged to form and make a unique individual. The father and mother each contribute 23 chromosomes for a total of 46 with each chromosome containing 100’s of genetic codes of information that help write a DNA blueprint of everything about our makeup from the good to the bad; from your hair to the hair on your toes… (ex.), as David said, I am fearfully and wonderfully made.

1. Once the code is written it cannot be changed; you become a walking representation of your family tree. So ladies if you are looking for certain traits in your man, you better ask for a picture of his mommas parents. That will let you know if you will always be able to run your fingers through his hair later on in life or wind up just polishing his head or parking those fingers on the cul-de-sac. Hey men same goes for you take a look at momma to see your future. Despite what science says I didn’t come from no monkey, there is not one DNA test that can prove me and Curious George are related. My little girl loves him but one day I will have to explain that Curious George will not be joining us for the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.

2. The spiritual side of birth or being born again means we gain a heavenly Father that shares with us in essence a spiritual genetic code. This code allows us to start over, whereby we can proclaim the verse 2Co 5:17 Therefore if any man [be] in Christ, [he is] a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new, I now share in God’s spiritual DNA, I now share holiness, righteousness, grace, mercy, healing, deliverance, the miraculous, the super natural, and the blessings and favor God.

B. By Biblical standards a father is an originator, someone who starts something. A father of nations, like Abraham, the Bible says there are fathers in music and instruments, metal working, and so forth. A father is a seed bed, someone with the capacity and potential to take what he has and reproduce it for the next generation. A geneticist at UNC – Chapel Hill has recently discovered that we use and show more of our genetic traits and characteristics of our dad than our mother. It was stated that “It’s not only what you inherit, but from whom you inherit”; if the father’s genes have variations in them, those variations (positive or negative) could have a bigger-than-expected effect on a child’s makeup.

1. From here it can get a little complex with a lot words and terminology, the best way to explain all of this without saturating you in a genetic lecture on DNA and RNA, is to say that as the cells that are making you up are being built from those provided by your parents; there is a give and take since you represent 50% of each parent. What happens is as these genes are introduced they are turned on or off, what they discovered is that more of the father’s genes are turned on, so the genes from dad carry more weight.
