Les Feldick teaches that the virgin birth was necessary because a fetus's blood comes from the father, not the mother — so Jesus received divine blood from God.
Because the fetal blood system originates with the father, Mary could be Jesus' human mother without passing any of her own blood into Him. Les also stresses that Mary's blood was just as corrupt as any other sinner's, but none of it entered the baby Jesus. Since the Holy Spirit was His Father, Jesus' blood was divine and sinless — with all the power of the Eternal Godhead in it.
Genesis 3:15 — Les points back to this promise of the 'seed of the woman' as the beginning of the virgin-birth truth that produced Christ's divine blood.
Matthew 1:18-20 — These verses establish the supernatural conception of Jesus by the Holy Spirit, the fact on which the fetal-blood explanation depends.
The Bible records the virgin birth as a supernatural conception. In Matthew 1:18, Mary 'was found with child of the Holy Ghost' before she and Joseph came together. The angel repeats the same truth in Matthew 1:20: 'that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.' Earlier, Genesis 3:15 promises a coming 'seed of the woman.' Scripture does not describe fetal blood circulation; it simply states the fact of the virgin conception.
Les Feldick teaches that the virgin birth is not just a theological doctrine; it is a physiological necessity. He repeatedly points out that the mother's blood never passes into the fetus she carries. In his words, 'the blood of the mother never courses through that fetus or that infant in her womb. The blood comes from the father.' He says this is true of every human fetus and even mentions veterinarians at Colorado State University proving the same principle in cattle. Because Christ had no human father, His blood did not come from a human male but from God. Les is careful to say that Mary's blood was not sinless. He says her blood was 'just as corrupt as any other woman's blood,' yet none of it coursed through the baby Jesus. The result was that Jesus' blood was 'divine blood' and 'sinless blood,' carrying 'all the power of the Eternal Godhead in it.' If Christ had not been virgin-born, Les says the blood would have come from a human father, which would have 'tainted His divine ability to die for the sins of the world.' That is why, for Les, the virgin birth is foundational to salvation.
Les states plainly: 'the blood of the mother never courses through that fetus or that infant in her womb. The blood comes from the father.' He says this is true of every fetus, and he cites veterinarians at Colorado State University who proved the same thing in cattle — the mother cow's blood never courses through the fetus; the blood system comes from the sire.
Because Jesus had no human father, His blood did not come from a human male. Les says 'His blood system originated with the Father, and so it was divine blood, it was sinless blood.' He also says that even though Jesus was born of a human mother, He had no human blood; it was divine and 'had all the power of the Eternal Godhead in it.'
Les teaches that if Christ had not been virgin-born, the blood would have come from a human father — 'which would have tainted His divine ability to die for the sins of the world.' He also explains that every child of Adam is under the curse of old Adam, but Christ was born of the woman without the effects of the curse that came from the human father.
Les explains that Joseph was the legal father of Christ, which is why the genealogy proves Jesus was in the royal line of David, while Mary was the physical mother. Jesus' blood system originated with God, yet He was human because He was born of the 'very ovum or the egg or the seed of the woman.'
Matthew 1:18 records that Mary 'was found with child of the Holy Ghost' before she and Joseph came together. Matthew 1:20 repeats the same truth: 'that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.' Genesis 3:15 contains the earlier promise of the 'seed of the woman.'
The Holy Spirit Conception
Les introduces Matthew 1:18, noting Mary was found with child of the Holy Spirit before marriage, which sets the stage for the supernatural origin of Jesus' life and blood.
The Fetus Never Receives Mother's Blood
Les declares that the mother's blood never courses through the fetus; blood comes from the father, and without the virgin birth a human father's blood would have tainted Jesus' ability to die for sins.
Fetal Blood Originates With the Father
Les repeats that Jesus' blood system originated with the Father, making His blood divine and sinless, unlike the offspring of Adam.
Mary's Corrupt Blood Never Entered Jesus
Les stresses that although Mary was a sinner, none of her corrupt blood coursed through Jesus because His blood system came from His Father.
The Seed of the Woman
Les explains that God impregnated Mary without a human father, so Jesus was born of the woman without the curse from the human father — sinless and divine, with blood originating in God.
Genealogies and Blood Origin
Les shows how the two genealogies fit: Joseph is the legal father while Mary is the physical mother; Christ's blood system originated from God but His humanity came from the seed of the woman.
Scientific Confirmation in Cattle
Les reports that Colorado State University veterinarians proved in cattle that the mother's blood never enters the fetus's system, confirming the physiological principle he applies to the virgin birth.
Divine Blood Carries Saving Power
Les teaches that because God was Jesus' Father, Jesus had no human blood — only divine blood carrying all the power of the Eternal Godhead, which is why believers place their faith in His blood.
Genesis 3:15: And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
Les points back to this promise of the 'seed of the woman' as the beginning of the virgin-birth thread leading to Christ.
Matthew 1:18: Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.
Recounts the virgin birth itself — Mary was found with child of the Holy Spirit before coming together with Joseph.
Matthew 1:20: But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.
The angel tells Joseph that the child conceived in Mary is of the Holy Ghost.
Matthew 1:1: The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.
Les notes that Jesus is presented as the son of David and Abraham, tying the royal/legal genealogy to the virgin-born King.
Les Feldick says no. He states that 'the blood of the mother never courses through that fetus or that infant in her womb' and that the blood comes from the father. This is the physiological fact he applies to Jesus' virgin birth.
Les says Mary was a sinner just like anyone else, and her blood was 'just as corrupt as any other woman's blood.' But because none of it entered Jesus' system, His blood remained divine and sinless.
For Les, a human father would have introduced human blood, which would have tainted Jesus' divine ability to die for sins. The virgin birth meant His blood came from God the Father, not from a human father.
Les traces the virgin birth promise back to Genesis 3:15. Since Jesus was the seed of the woman, born without a human father, His blood system could originate with God rather than with a human male.
