Er, first thing's first, I would do as much research from as many sources as you can to get a clearer picture as to a: whether or not this website could possibly have any verifiable DNA of Jesus the Nazarene, because so far the jury is still out as to whether or not he even existed, much less had children, etc. Everything on the subject so far is conjecture or very biased archaeology; then b: maybe have a friend send in a sample as well - it could be one of those things where they tell everyone that they're a descendant of Jesus... for all sorts of reasons beginning with money and ending, unfortunately, with making a bid for world change in a very odd and roundabout way. You cannot trust everything you read on the web.
Secondly, no one can give you most of these answers you're looking for. If you want the story of Jesus, read up as much as you can and form your own opinions - there are no hard facts to correlate any stories. Half of the new testament gospels show enough contradiction to be considered falsified documents, and almost all of them were written after the death of Jesus, not during. Suffice to say, the so-called facts are shady at best.
Then, consider that Jesus was not the first person to be - supposedly - resurrected, or crucified, or to heal people, or be born of a virgin. In fact, these things are basically staple elements of mythology before a certain period of time in cultures all over the world. This either invalidates 'Christ', or grants a larger perspective on the subject that has nothing to do with bloodlines. Either is a positive step in my opinion.
Finally, One God, Many Gods, No Gods - there is no truth or fiction in any of those. Your connection to Divinity is personal and no one can make a decision on it for you. Seek out those answers in yourself. If you're looking for arguments for and against each stance, that's one thing. But there is no secret mystery truth - that I know of at least, hah! - regarding God. You are an expression of a Divine force incomprehensible to any created being. Whatever is required for you to reach the next step in your evolution is what you are going to discover when you search for those answers yourself - they are all true, and none of them are true. If you need many Gods to inspire your forward on your path, or to truly connect with particular parts of your Divine Nature, then there are many Gods. If you need One God to focus your devotion and faith towards a higher aspiration than yourself, then there is only One God. If you need an absence of God in order to understand the fundamental living nature of existence, or for that matter the dire importance of your actions as mechanics in a very complicated machine in the physical, then there is No God.
Even the most enlightened of sages, who may know of all of the experiences their soul has had over many lifetimes, know that they cannot know YOUR experience. It is completely personal, and it is the most intimate exchange between yourself and Divinity. You do not need the blood of Jesus in you to discover or follow this natural urge we all have in some form. All you need is to turn your ears inward and listen to your own inner Voice. It echoes from the place where your soul arises from the unified Divine Nature underlying, connecting, and penetrating all of existence.
You also do not need to learn enochian to speak with your guardian angel. Your Guardian Angels speak to you all the time whether you are listening or not, and the hear you whether you know you are speaking to them or not.
Very lastly, everyone bends reality all of the time, proactively and retroactively. It's the way consciousness interfaces with physical reality and selectively experiences the Karmic currents necessary to our evolution. Try changing the quality of your thoughts in one direction or another - positive or negative - and see how it affects not only your present and future, but your past as well. Write down a series of memories, put them in an envelope, and do not think of them for 90 days. Over that 90 days make a conscious effort to change your thought patterns for the better or, if you prefer, for the worst. Then in 90 days write down the same memories. Are they the same? You may be surprised. But, how you remember the past is how the past happened for you, it's real - if affects your actions, your thoughts, your interactions with your own consciousness and the rest of the world around you. Interesting stuff...

P.S. Having just seen the website, I'm even less convinced. These words have a universal significance to almost all english speaking people - and an equal significance to people in any culture in their own language. Don't fall for crap like this. You don't need these people to tell you that you are special, or that you have some great potential within you, to know that it's already true no matter who you are. Besides that, this recording they give you has a horrible quality of sound. Just words themselves don't do anything, it's a combination of pronunciation, intonation, rhythm, frequency, and the combination of the spoken words with the mental activity going on in conjunction with them. Just listening to a poor quality recording and repeating what you hear wouldn't have an effect beyond something vaguely hypnotic - assuming you're susceptible to hypnosis in the first place. Take responsibility for your own potential, don't let some douche make you think you have to have fancy genes to access it.
