1 Corinthians 15:44 KJVPlease, let's get something straight: the Bible only speaks of TWO, that is TWO, kinds of bodies that pertain to humans: the mortal and the resurrection. There is absolutely no mention of any "spiritual body" in death - what is said is that the mortal Body returns to dust, the Spirit returns to God as it was when It came forth from Him, and Soul which exists only as a consequence of the union of the two (Genesis 2:7 KJV) ceases to be.
The Rich Man and Lazarus is proven to be parabolic by this. The dead men mentioned therein are said to possess tongues, eyes, fingers, bosoms, etc. which no where in Scripture is established. If you have a verse which mentions your "spiritual body" idea which pertains during the intermediate state between wearing a mortal body in this life and a resurrection body in the next life, please post it.
It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
