                                      The Bloodlines of Jesus


Jesus was not in the bloodlines of King David through Joseph as described in Mathew 1. Why because God was His Father
spiritually and literally and NOT Joseph. Joseph was not Jesus's father. And therefore you can't trace Jesus' bloodlines
back thru Joseph's famous lineage. For although Jesus was from the very beginning and always present with
the Father and Mother (Holy Spirit) when he took on His earthly form, it was the virgin Mary that was impregnated by the
Lord himself, or as is said "the Holy Ghost overshadowed her. So Jesus' lineage is through Mary and not Joseph.  Mind
you, Mary the engaged wife to be of Joseph could have been in the lineage of David, because King David of Old had many
wives and many children just as his son, Solomon had. So from the maternal  side, Jesus was surely an offspring of David.

But our Messiah was Not 'the Son of David' as people called Him, but the Son of God as Peter realized by faith. JESUS
always existed, for as He said,' before Abraham was, I am'. Jesus was the Creator and not a creation or a mere man, like
King David of Old. Jesus was God.

This is why Jesus asked those that were confused and kept calling him the 'Son of David'.... What think ye of Christ?
whose son is he? They say unto him, The Son of David. He saith unto them, How then doth David in spirit call him Lord,
saying The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?  If David then
call him Lord, how is he his son?  And no man was able to answer him a word, neither durst any man from that day forth
ask him any more questions (Mathew 22).

You see, King David of Old was a son of Jesus and Jesus was not a son of David. But wait a minute, the Lord promised King
David of Old that his seed or one of his descendants would always rule the Lord's people. (Psalm 89 See below). This is the
King David as prophesied about by Moses in Deu 18:15 The LORD thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from the
midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken;  (COMPARE Jesus was not 'THAT PROPHET' )  
This is the king as prophesied about in Ezekiel 34, 37, Jeremiah 23, Hosea 2 and other scriptures, but they are not talking
about the our Messiah who is the King of Kings, but our End-Time leader, one of the two witnesses of the Lord who will
lead us as did Moses of Old. Do you understand the difference ?

So did the lineage of David stop with Jesus. I don't think so as Joeseph hadn't even got into the lineage yet because he
didn't make love to Mary and had no children from Mary before Jesus came. But He did have children after Jesus was born
because scriptures say, that Jesus had brothers and sisters. (Mathew 13: 55-56). and it seems James, the half- brother of
Jesus did really believe in Jesus as the Messiah, and did become one of his great disciples. Therefore it is very possible
that James seed passed on the lineage of King David, and is therefore very important to us in the End-Time.

Hence I don't believe that Jesus's lineage went on with his children from Mary Magdalene (although there is a possibility)
but believe that the lineage of David through Joseph went on through one of the sons of Joseph....most likely James, and
through his seed of David that eventually produce our End-Time King David because the Lord's word cannot be broken and
the Lord promised David of Old that one of his descendants would rule the spiritual House of Israel in the End-Time

I'm not making it a doctrine, and I could be wrong in this case, but the scriptures have to be fulfilled literally according to
the Lord's promises somehow. And we do know that there will be an End-Time King David and a literal 144,000 of
Christian believers in the Messiah. But again, the encouraging point is that we don't have to check people's lineages then
as to whether they can be traced back to their original tribe and their original parenting, because there is absolutely no
way anyone can trace back their parentage to Jesus's time or even to the sons and daughters of David because he had
multiple wives and their has been multiple matings ever since.  And so even though we may  literally be in the lineage, we
only enter into his chosen ones blessings if we have faith in HIM. This puts us in the spiritual lineage despite our physical
connections to the past.

Therefore even when it comes to our future King, only God knows, and only the Lord will choose the lineage and
descendant of David who shall succeed their father in the flesh to the earthly throne. For this is our true blood lineage of
our leader in the End-Time and none of us will be able to know this until the Lord annoints and appoints our two
witnesses. And one of these two olive branches, shall be our End-Time King.

In my opinion according to scriptures and bloodlines

Jay


So when considering Mathew, and the lineage of David up to Joseph, the husband of Jesus on this Graph of the LINEAGE
OF JESUS, do remember that Jesus was NOT fathered by Joseph but by the Holy Spirit.
