In Genesis, when God created Adam, he created him both male and female. In another words the first man had both the male and female DNA.

How so ?.  What is the scripture verse for this. 

I think you are just speculating there and I can see your line of reasoning, but you cannot state that as fact.  

Genesis 2

⁷ Then the Lord God formed man from the ^[a]dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath or spirit of life, and man became a living being.

A useful  bit of information as to why Adams rib was used to create Eve, is that tibs will regrow, if removed carefully.

God used Adams rib to form Eve, and his rib regrew  so men don't have a lesser number of ribs than women.

That is a plausible explanation from the article you posted.  God is supernatural and can just" say "and it is done, so while it may be true that the rib can be regrown in the body, I think we really don't know why he choose this method.

Meanwhile, some in the prophetic ministries say that God did it this way to demonstrate that he made man in his image and likeness, with man being or signifying  both man and woman .  They are also saying that it means also that it is showing that women are not just a small part of man, but is equal to man .

I got it from scripture :

Gen: 1:27

So God created man in His own image, in the image of God created He him(Adam), male and female

Jesus quoted Gen 1:27 when he spoke about marriage.

Gen 5:1-5

This is the book of the generation of Adam .In the day God created man, in the likeness of God, made He him, male and female created He them.

Eve was formed in Genesis 2: 21-22.

Genesis 1 is the book of Beginnings. So the male and female DNA existed at the beginning in Adam

The generation of Adam seems different than formed from dirt, unless dirt has generation.

Adam was the first only endoskeleton then Eve regeneration and the rest of mankind.

Is not God a spirit ?. 

If God is Father , son and he Holy spirit, how can God be male and female, unless it is a spiritual connection.

So, are we talking about flesh and blood or spiritual beings.  Then, are there two accounts of the creation of man ?.

Who is God in reference to in verse 26 ?.

John 4

²⁴ God is a Spirit (a spiritual Being) and those who worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth (reality).

Genesis 1

²⁶ God said, Let Us [Father, Son, and Holy Spirit] make mankind in Our image, after Our likeness, and let them have complete authority over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, the [tame] beasts, and over all of the earth, and over everything that creeps upon the earth.

I am a spirit. I live in a body and I have a soul. God is a spirit but he is not floating in the air. He walk with Adam in the garden in the cool of the day. Revelation 2, John saw him in the throne room scene  as having the appearance of a man and He is sitting on a throne

Revelation and Ezekiel  we have the four faces of God: the face of a lion, the face of a man ,the face of an ox and the face of an eagle.

Here we have four facet of the face of God.

The four faces are reflected also in the gospel. In Mathew He is the king ( the lion of the tribe of Judah). In Mark He is the servant ( face of an ox). In Luke He is the son of man. In John, He is the son of God ( face of an eagle ).

therefore I don't see any problem with God having both male and female emotions and characteristics. There are many reference in the bible, where the emotions of God are described . These emotions and characteristics are both male and female.

Jesus wept over Jerusalem and yearns to gather her as a motherhand would gather her chick's.

When God led Israel through the wilderness , He compared himself as a mother eagle would stir up her nest and teach her young to fly.

For lack of putting together my exact thoughts,  see the below to have that understanding more inclined to my thoughts.  see the link below for the full article.

https://www.gotquestions.org/God-male-female.html

Both man and woman are created in the image of God, in that they are greater than all the other creations as they, like God, have a mind, will, intellect, emotions, and moral capacity. Animals do not possess a moral capacity and do not possess an immaterial component like humanity does. The image of God is the spiritual component that humanity alone possesses. God created humanity to have a relationship with Him. Humanity is the only creation designed for that purpose.

That said, man and woman are only patterned after the image of God—they are not tiny “copies” of God. The fact that there are men and women does not require God to have male and female features. Remember, being made in the image of God has nothing to do with physical characterist
