   Jesus was not born without a spirit. Man was created with a body soul and   
   spirit. We all propagated after our own kind. Which we were created to do and   
   be. We are to worship God the Father and pray to Him. Not to Jesus. (Which is

   do so, and Jesus gave us the reasoning behind that in the scripture.   
      
   Mankind is not the children of God, for they follow another.
