A spirit without a body is death. An angel has a spirit body. GOD doesn’t have a body, HE is pure spirit. How could GOD, who is omnipresent in eternity have a body ? Scriptures that speak of GOD having certain body parts like humans do is anthropomorphism or attributing human characteristics to GOD. This done to help finite humans comprehend the infinite. GOD could not communicate with humans on HIS level because HE is the highest and HIS thoughts and ways are so far above humans that humans would never understand. Therefore GOD comes down to human level in HIS communication with humans using terminology humans would understand. GOD designed humans to need a body to be alive when the human spirit is joined with the body it becomes a soul. At death humans become a disembodied spirit but because this spirit has no body all of the normal actions of a living soul are not present. A disembodied human spirit cannot see, taste, hear, talk, feel or smell because all of the necessary senses required are rotting in the ground. Half a soul is not life.
When GOD formed Adams body from the dust of the ground and before the breath of life came Adams body could do nothing, there was no life until the human spirit, the breath of life entered Adams body. While we are a soul we are a living being but a disembodied spirit is only half of a soul. It is only in the kingdom that these disembodied spirits will become like the angels with a spirit body that makes them immortal. Mark 12:25 Luke 20:34-36 1 Corinthians 15:42-50
There are certain people that think GOD makes exceptions for some people and that these people are somehow yet alive as a disembodied spirit. There is no scriptural evidence to support this idea. The Bible explicitly says that the only way to live again after death is by a resurrection from the dead. Any scripture that seems to say otherwise is either a very bad translation, a deliberate alteration, improper punctuation or some combination of these. All the prophets, Jesus and Apostles testify to this fact of the resurrection .
Oh, GOD can change HIS mind they say but GOD, who is omniscient, knows in eternity all things so why would HE need to “change HIS mind” ? People who think this way don’t know or understand GODs attributes else they would never think such gibberish. 1 Corinthians 6:14
One of these types talks about hermeneutics saying we need to take the plain words of scripture as the truth. Well, the trinity is supported by hermeneutics and this person was able to see how scriptures were taken out of context or altered to support the lie of the trinity but this person seems unable to do this with the lie of immediate life after death. This persons hermeneutics is worthless and is the logic of carnal minds.The Holy Spirit of the FATHER is the interpreter of scripture not human hermeneutics and is able to overcome any butchering men have done to the scriptures to reveal the truth to HIS elect saints. This person has never had this spiritual experience from GOD therefore he is carnal knowing nothing. This person only recently came to understand the trinity is a lie but this is no indication that this person is converted having the indwelling spirit of GOD because the Jews have known the truth of one GOD for about 3,500 years but it hasn’t done any good for them at all. It is extremely important to know there is only one GOD but this is not the message of the gospel. Since this person truly believes in immediate life after death in some fashion they ignorantly are preaching a false gospel. If 98% of false Christianity thinks immediate life after death is true then that’s the first indication that it is a lie. Whatever the false churches teach is a lie.
