Glorified Flesh

3/13/21

The title of this article is one of the most foolish and stupid terms used in false Christianity today. It is like the word trinity or immortal soul.  It is not found anywhere in scripture and is based on the false idea that Jesus was raised from the dead in “a glorified fleshly body”.  I have already proved that Jesus was raised in his mortal fleshly body; the exact same body in which he was murdered. Scripture says that since death came through a man (Adam) the resurrection of the dead also came through a man, not a glorified man, a mortal not glorified man.

 1Corinthians 15-21

For since by man came death by a man also came the resurrection of the dead.

 Jesus had to be risen as a man, not glorified, but as A MAN. 

 I have shown that the Holy Spirit could not be given until Jesus was glorified and that Jesus told his disciples that he had to “go away” in order to send the Spirit.  I have shown that the apostle John never saw the glorified Jesus because in 1 John 3: 2  Beloved, now are we the children of God and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be but we know when he is revealed we shall be like him for we shall see him as he is.

John says plainly that he did not know what it was that we would be. Later, when John wrote the Revelation, he describes the glorified Jesus and his description has no comparison to what we read in the gospels.

Revelation 1:13 and in the midst of the seven lampstands one like the son of man clothed with a garment down to the feet and girded about the chest with a golden band. His head and his hair were white like wool as white as snow and his eyes like a flame of fire; his feet were like fine brass as if refined in a furnace and his voice as the sound of many waters.

 

 Both Jesus and the saints are glorified when they ascend but Jesus was the first. Jesus gives a very clear explanation of the difference between flesh and Spirit in John 3:3-8. That which is born of the flesh is flesh and that which is born of the Spirit is Spirit, how plain is that. Jesus goes on to explain what a born of the Spirit being is like when he says they are like the wind that comes and goes and others do not know where it came from or where it is going. All of this writing is from scripture and is not of men but from God.  There are other scriptures where Jesus tells us that there is no marriage in the kingdom and we will be as the angles. (Matthew 22:30).  The apostle Paul says plainly that there is a spirit body and Fleshly body. 

1Corinthians 15:44  It is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body.  There is a natural body and there is a spiritual body.

Does this verse say that there is a natural body and a glorified fleshly body??

Our current fleshly bodies will not be glorified but destroyed and replaced with a spirit body.

2 Corinthians 5.1  For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have another building from God an everlasting house in heaven not built by human hands.

Does this say our bodies buried in the Earth are raised and glorified?

Doesn’t it say ANOTHER, which clearly is not speaking of our fleshly body.  Your body of flesh is destroyed; we were made of dust and to dust we return. To continue to say glorified flesh shows you are refusing to see the truth of scripture and are spiritually blind.

Jesus was raised from the dead the same way Lazarus was. A dead man was alive again which is the proof needed in the resurrection of Jesus.  It was the ascension, after Jesus was hidden by the cloud, when he was glorified. Acts 2:33 “Therefore being exalted to the right hand of God and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he poured out this which you now see and hear.”  Jesus had to ascend and be exalted to give the Spirit, be glorified. Ephesians 4:8-10 “Therefore He says, when he ascended on high he led captivity captive and gave gifts to men. Jesus, who descended (was buried) is also the one who ascended far above all the heavens that he might fill all things.”  For Jesus to have done anything he had to first ascend. Luke 24:26 “Ought not the Christ to have suffered all things and to enter into his glory?”  Take note that the previous verses include the resurrection as part of the, “all things Jesus mentioned,” and then afterwards enter into his glory.

Jesus prayed to his Father in John 17:5 “And now, O Father, glorify me together with yourself........”  Jesus was glorified by the Father in a glory TOGETHER WITH GOD HIMSELF !!  This act made Jesus a type of being in Gods own image and likeness, the first of the first fruits.  Matthew 17:1-5 is the account of the transfiguration that in vision describes the glorified Jesus as having a face that shone like the sun and clothes as white as the light.  John 12: His disciples did not understand these things at first; but WHEN JESUS WAS GLORIFIED they remembered that these things were written about him and that they had done these things to him.”  Before Jesus ascended his disciples seemed as clueless as ever; it was only after Jesus ascended and sent the Spirit that they suddenly were full of understanding. The Spirit was not yet given because Jesus was not yet glorified. John 7:3

I am growing weary of having to deal with the people who claim to be converted saints but really do not know their back sides from a hole in the ground.  These people are carnal but make believe they are Christians.  Usually I do not not get so upset or write so negatively about these things but I have had enough of it and I am going to be much more aggressive in future articles.  

The faker Christians use Job 19:26 to say we will be glorified flesh and see God. 

Job 19:26

“And after my skin is destroyed, Yet in my flesh I shall see God.”

I have read dozens of commentaries on this scripture and some agree with the translation above while others do not. The literal Hebrew in this verse is “after my skin” or after my flesh I shall see God. Jobs flesh is to be consumed but yet he will see God. The ignorant say that you must have fleshly eyes to see and then conclude you must be flesh to see God. Angels see God but are total spirit beings and scripture says that no man glorified or otherwise can see God and live. (Exodus 33:20)  These commentaries admit that they are guessing as to the correct translation and that understanding the text and comparing those verses that speak about the resurrection is very important.

If you did a study on what God thinks of the flesh why would God ever want to glorify it?  Paul said that flesh and blood can not inherit the kingdom of God. (1 Corinthians 15:50)  Humans dwell in a temporary shell of flesh as your human spirit is what you really are and your body is not of any value to God. It is the spirits of just men made perfect. (Hebrews 12:23)  We are told that we will be in the image of Christ in our resurrection; a life giving spirit. 

1Corinthians 15:45  And so it is written, the first man Adam became a living being. the last Adam became a life giving spirit.

Does this verse say Jesus is a glorified fleshly man?  

 Isaiah 52:14  Just as many were astonished at you, your visage was marred more than any man and his form more than the sons of men;

 The above verse describes the horrible beating of Jesus before going to the cross.  Later at the cross nails were driven into his body and a huge gash in his side made by a spear.  When Jesus was raised from the dead his disciples did not recognize him because of this beating and he still had the open wounds from the nails and the spear.  Was this the glorified fleshly body of Christ?  No!  Johns description in Revelation 1 in no way agrees with what Jesus looked like in the gospel accounts. 

After all of this clear evidence from scripture the carnal morons still insist on a glorified fleshly body in the resurrection.  If human beings are to be made in the image of God, is God flesh or is He Spirit?  The image of God is the human spirit in a spirit body both total perfection. Nothing physical exists in the spirit realm and never will.  Glorified flesh is the idea of an idiot.  When a saint of God enters Gods kingdom they will be 100% composed of spirit; their human spirit that is sealed in righteousness is given an immortal spirit body, then they will be in the image of God.
