Well, the powers which are described in the Bible could very fit in the DC Comics version of Jesus; Secret Origins v2 10 show Phantom Stranger was an adult family man named Isaac with a wife (Rebecca) and boy at the time when Jesus was a small child. When King Herod sent his army to kill all small male children (in an effort to slay Jesus) the army slew his son and wife. Blind with anger, he spent the next 30 years in a rage against Jesus. As Jesus was being tortured, Isaac bribed a guard to assume his role in whipping Jesus. Jesus then sentenced him to walk away from his home and country; to be errant until Doomsday. Eventually, his misplaced rage expunged, he spent the rest of his time helping society, even declining God's offer to release him from his sentence. As we can see, the role as Messiah of Jesus is unquestioned in comics, and it can be applyed to the powers too.
