The spiritual body of Christ in heaven is non-material. It shall be as spirit beings in heaven, celestial/heavenly without a body, but not without life. It will be a spirit or living soul. The body Christ appeared in after His resurrection was not a spiritual body. His body was human with...

I can only go by what is written. In Gen 2 God said He formed man's body of flesh & bones from the dust of the earth, and breathed life (which is spirit) into His created being. And that man became a living soul. Body + spirit = living soul. Two parts that together create life, and that...

Here is the reason the body of Christ is told to judge human messengers of God. Not all are called to be human messengers from God. For that reason we are to judge those who come to us as having a message from God, but in reality, are false witnesses. Since we are called to judge those who say...

I don't want to know what you believe SI, I want to know what you can prove through the Scriptures. I have NOT low expectations of what God has promised His own. You continue to believe what you assume and cannot prove. The problem as I see it, is that on one hand you say you believe death of...

It's reading our assumptions into the Word of God! Because it's reading our assumptions into the Word of God. This is reading your assumptions into the Word of God. Adam and Eve, being created very good could not have been very good if they were weak. Humanity became subject to weak bodies...

Since angel is translated as both human messengers of God as well as heavenly beings, I believe the context tells us that the body of Christ corporately should be able to judge one another in the smallest and greatest of matters, rather than submitting judgment for the body to those who are...

Why would our resurrected bodies that shall be immortal & incorruptible not be subject to the laws of gravity and other laws of nature as we are now? There is no evidence that A&E were not subjected to laws of gravity and other natural laws. Why would we not be like them, since in the...

Paul doesn't say our bodies resurrected and changed shall be glorious and powerful, with capabilities far beyond what we have now. That is your assumption, because you think our resurrected physical bodies shall be spiritual bodies. And to your mind spiritual beings will have powers like that...

I know it from the creation account in Genesis. The outer man was created flesh and bones, with the breath of life (spirit) from God breathed into them and man became a "living soul". Since God created humans with flesh and bones and gave them a spirit (breath of life), why would I imagine God...

Adam was created, as all humans are now born, with body + spirit and declared "living souls." It is the spirit in Adam that gave his physical body life. But Adam had one advantage over all of his progeny. Through his spirit that gave his body life he could have lived forever if he had not...

Instead of trying to learn biblical truth from pagan ideas, why not simply allow Scripture to show us where our spirit goes when our body dies. Those who died in faith, as did Lazarus, was carried by the angels to a place called Abraham's bosom. That certainly does not imply the realm of the...

What does Paul mean when he says when our natural body dies it is raised a spiritual body? If the dead are not raised a spiritual body after our body dies, then Paul would be correct in saying "they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished" (1Cor 15:18). But Paul argues for the...

Yes, I understand what you mean, every human body, including the body of Christ is destined to die. Which of course He did die physically. And because human bodies shall not be immortal until the last trumpet sounds and the bodies of the saints are raised and changed to immortal &...

Since Christ was indeed fully human, would He not also be fully immortal in human form from birth since He was conceived by the Holy Spirit?

No it doesn't make sense IF we insist our physical resurrected body will become a spiritual body? What does make sense and is the point Paul consistently makes in 1Cor 15 is that death of our body does not mean death of our spirit. When our body dies, our spirit, through the Holy Spirit within...

The purpose for a physical resurrection to immortality and incorruption is because we must be complete again to live throughout eternity on the new earth. Human bodies are destined to die. When the spirit in believers ascends to heaven after our mortal body dies, we are without flesh & bones...

Yes, I do believe there are spirits in the world. The angels of God are spirits, sent from God to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation. People sometimes reference these spirits as "Guardian Angels". Hebrews 1:13 (KJV) But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my...

Why does Paul say it is raised a spiritual body since the body raised is the body sown natural, but changed from mortal to immortal & corruptible to incorruptible? A spiritual body has not flesh & bones, but the body that shall be raised immortal & incorruptible will be flesh and bones. And...

The times of restitution Peter spoke of had begun, and will not be complete until the spiritual Kingdom of God in heaven is complete when the last Gentile to be saved enters into the Kingdom by grace through faith. The restitution or restoration of all things began when Christ came with His...

What exactly are you sticking with? Quoting this passage tells me nothing of what you believe it means???
