Is God in Heaven presently corporeal.

Unless the Bible you use says Jesus Christ ascended in spirit form.

 

How could he "sit" on a throne, and how could Stephen see Jesus "sitting" at the right hand of the Father, without bodies?

 

How were we made in His image?

 

GIAM, you need to sit down with a Southern Baptist mentor. Spend lots and lots of time with him. Or her.

 

You've never heard the expression "I am beside myself?" I'll be He's beside Himself about this discussion.

:laugh:

 

Unless you be more specific in your posts, you will get one liners from me, at least. You can't post and ask and then when given an answer, point to somewhere and say that's what you're talking about.

And after reading your posts here and elsewhere, all I can say is you're in a real mess.

Organize your thoughts, and then discuss.

 

Of course God has a body, and He looks something like us. Genesis 1:26 (And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness). Jesus ascended to Heaven in His spiritual body in the presence of the apostles. Acts 1:9. We will have glorified bodies in Heaven. 1 Corinthians 15:42. So there in no reason to think God does not have a body. As for the Holy Trinity, we are told it exists: "For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. " 1 John 5:7. But it is not for us to understand it or be able to explain it, at least not yet. 1 Corinthians 13:12.

 

The Father does not have a corporeal body. "God is a spirit" You can look up the reference yourself at blueletterbible.com.

Any biblical reference to God having a body is God expressing Himself "as a man" (anthropomorphisation)

God (the Father) did not "get" a body when Jesus was born. That sounds like Pentecostal Oneness doctrine. Jesus is the Word in the flesh, not the Father in the flesh.

Heaven is a place. It is not metaphorical. Jesus is there corporealy. Our resurrected bodies will be both spiritual and corporeal. There are some honest bible teachers that do not agree on this however.

God does not "look" like us. Sounds like Mormon theology. Man was created in God's "image", an image which we do not resemble since the fall.

You guys got a lot of studying to do. Get busy!

 

Yes, He has a body!! Flesh and bone, Jesus!!! Amen??? Yes He does use it!! And yes---other bodies are allowed in Heaven

 

Adam was the one made in His image and he is male. Female was made from Adam.

With the Lord there is neither male or female.

Gal 3:28There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
