Jesus literally showed us the New Life of His being. Not as a spirit, but that of His Immortal self.That's not biblical.
God has always had the ability to be anything including "flesh"--it's nothing new. He created all things that are made of matter out of nothing simply by speaking them into existence, manifested angels as men, and rose the dead even before Jesus' resurrection.
What you have stated is not what occurred. Jesus gave His "flesh" to the Church, saying "take, eat, this is my body", then did not commit His flesh to the Father, but only His "spirit." And to be clear, He stated that "that which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the spirit is spirit"--not newly created flesh, but as Paul said, "not that body" at all. And the rest of scripture--the "body returns to the dust (and the spirit to God who gave it)", and all the elements including the dust to which the flesh returns are to be "destroyed with fervent heat and with fire."
Your stated beliefs do not and cannot reconcile with all scripture.
1 Cor. 15
[50] Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
[51] Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
[52] In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
[53] For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
[54] So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
