Was Jesus Christ a member of mankind or the human race, that is, was He part of Adam's family tree? Could His humanity be traced back to the root of Adam? Where dd Jesus get His human nature from? Was Jesus a Son of Adam, or of the seed of Adam according to the flesh? Why do some theologians deny that Jesus was a Son of Adam? These questions are answered in the video teaching " Jesus, Son of Adam?" Part One: www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIpPoRQRkWsPart Two: www.youtube.com/watch?v=AiTSlf2u5hY

Menno Simons (whom Mennonites are named after) taught that Jesus' body was primarily from heaven. Jesus said he was the bread from heaven and that the bread he would give is his flesh. If I remember correctly, Menno taught that sin was inherited through the man's seed. I think he had to wiggle around the verses that say Jesus was of the seed of David, Abraham, etc. Menno fought admirably against the reformers' OSAS ideas, but apparently never questioned the sinful flesh idea. Hopefully he was blessed to discover the truth after death. I think the heavenly flesh idea was the best he could do while retaining the sinful flesh premise. For all I know he could be 50% correct about Jesus' body being from heaven... The Bible just doesn't seem to explain the incarnation in 'scientific' detail.
