Janosky: Jesus was not a spirit (disembodied one) but a Spirit dwelling in a human nature. Every human has spirit and a human body. So mr dappa Jesus spirit was a life giving one. Jesus can be called a life giving Spirit same way a human can be called flesh and blood, it does not mean that humans do not have a spirit same way Jesus is called a life giving Spirit does not mean he does not have a body |

I don't like dwelling on people who don't accept truth in the Bible for how it is. The Bible simply says that Jesus was resurrected with a SPIRIT BODY (1Cor 15:42-44, 1Timothy 3:16, 1Peter 3:18) So I don't quite get what you mean by ‘disembodied’ in this context. The Scriptures say that there are heavenly[spirit] BODIES and earthly[flesh] BODIES—1Cor 15:40 The BODY here just means the forms of existence. Some exist in the form of spirits, while others in form of flesh. Says what Scripture? See, we are not talking about your regular Nollywood movies here. We're discussing the Bible and if we're doing that, we better speak in Biblical terms. I believe this your misunderstanding stems from Genesis 2:7. Man is basically an earthly creature, made from the dust—there's no immortal spirit or soul inside him—since the man himself is a LIVING SOUL when the breath of LIFE is in his nostrils.
Presently, Jesus Christ has been ruling as King in God's Kingdom since 1914 as an immortal spirit being(1Cor 15:50, Revelation 11:15) Soon, he's going to live up to that particular assignment of being a ‘LIFE-giving spirit’ when all those powerless in death will be resurrected to LIFE here on earth. (John 5:28-29, Acts 24:15, Revelation 20:13) 1 Like 1 Share |

livingchrist: Luke 24:36-39, according to livingchrist: Jesus is a Spirit with flesh and bones ("dwelling in a human nature". JWs have been teaching you the Bible truth but you're striving so hard to complicate a straight forward message in your Bible |
Re: After Jesus’ Resurrection, Was His Body Flesh Or Spirit? by livingchrist: 12:11pm On Oct 14, 2020 |
DappaD:what truth have you presented so far? heavenly bodies does not mean spirit bodies. Heavenly body is the resurrection body. Again the body does not mean forms of existence, The bible describe the body as a house or a garment. 2 Corinthians 5:1 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. Says what Scripture? See, we are not talking about your regular Nollywood movies here.who is talking of Nolly wood movies here? Are you going to deny the fact that human being has spirit? Job 32:8 But there is a spirit in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding. Proverbs 20:27 The spirit of man is the candle of the LORD, searching all the inward parts of the belly. Ecclesiastes 3:21 Who knoweth the spirit of man that goeth upward, and the spirit of the beast that goeth downward to the earth? Here are verse that clearly taught about human spirit. Presently, Jesus Christ has been ruling as King in God's Kingdom since 1914 as an immortal spirit being(1Cor 15:50, Revelation 11:15)This is clearly untrue and a mere fabricator. 1914 is a fabrication by watch tower society after many failed date fixtures. Jesus began reign immediately he ascended up to heaven. Jesus gives life to all who come to him, he gave life to many before and he is still doing it to those who come to him. Jesus being the life giving Spirit applies to the present as well as to the future. |

Garbage.
And when Jesus likened himself to a temple, did it mean that his body was a literal temple? (John 2:19) So here too, if Paul uses the same kind of figure of speech, does it literally mean that human beings are houses or tents? Please answer this very important question. Which of the following died on the torture stake: 1. Jesus 2. The fleshly body of Jesus
Okay so your best option was to dig up scriptures that don't have anything to do with what is being discussed right? Please, if you can understand and get the meaning of Genesis 2:7, then you can understand those other scriptures you put up there. What did Jehovah God breathe into the nostrils of Adam(who was formed from the dust of the earth)? Is it a spirit being or breath of life(life-force)?
So why did David, Peter, Paul and Jesus say that Jesus himself was to sit at the right hand of God FIRST after he ascended to heaven? (Psalm 110:1, Matthew 22:43-44, Acts 2:34-35, Hebrews 8:1) That's actually by the way. If you decide to continue preaching that your Jesus is a—how did you put it again—‘a glorified resurrected disembodied spirit with flesh and blood’—then do go ahead with that while Jehovah's Witnesses will stick to the unadulterated truth as found in the Bible! (2Timothy 3:16) |

livingchrist: That's where you got it all wrong, each religionsist out there is saying he/she got it right and there is confusion everywhere. One person can't serve as light to the world for the light to shine brightly from one end of the earth to another it must be a group whose activities is globally felt, and when talking about harmony it means they must believe the same thing [John 17:22] not just you on your own claiming you're a true Christian and another man in Singapore claiming the same yet you're not in agreement! |

DappaD:Did Jesus refer to himself as a temple or his body? When peter said he is putting off this tabernacle was he talking of his self or his body? Please answer this very important question.this question makes no sense, When a man leaves his house, is he still present there? The body is not the life but only houses the life. Okay so your best option was to dig up scriptures that don't have anything to do with what is being discussed right?The scriptures I gave you made it clear that man has his spirit. You are bringing another subject into it, which is 'breath of life'. The breath of life is the power giving to man in order to live not only man but all living creatures. So why did David, Peter, Paul and Jesus say that Jesus himself was to sit at the right hand of God FIRST after he ascended to heaven? (Psalm 110:1, Matthew 22:43-44, Acts 2:34-35, Hebrews 8:1)Jesus is not disembodied, it is jehovah witness organisation that teaches a disembodied Jesus not the bible. @bolded that is a lie, Jesus did not say he had flesh and blood, but flesh and bones. Acts 2:33 Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear. Acts 2 vv33 already settles it, Jesus was already seated at God's right hand when he poured out the holy Spirit. 1914 was a fraud fabricated by watch tower to cover their numerous failed prophecy. |

AkinwaleJJ:same thing all religion will say they are united and love themselves. The later day saints believe in the same thing, many other sects too does that make them disciples of Jesus. If you claim you disciple of Jesus then your teaching should be in line with the bible. What make a disciple is not uniformity of thought but agreement in faith of Jesus christ. Even the early churches had some differences does that mean that they were not truly Jesus disciples? |
Re: After Jesus’ Resurrection, Was His Body Flesh Or Spirit? by Janosky: 1:40pm On Oct 14, 2020 |

Bros, you don't even understand that which you claim to believe. Your So called "disembodied spirit" is a gross error. 1 Corinthians 15:44 " spirits have spiritual bodies.

Janosky:you are very predictable, your are clamoring like a foolish woman lie cannot be substituted for truth. 1 Corinthians 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. Where was it written that spirits has spiritual body? How does 'there is a natural body and there is a spiritual body translate to spirits has spiritual body? Infact the natural body refers to the body of Adam and the spiritual body refers to the body of christ. |

livingchrist: Bros, continue your insults, it doesn't change the Bible truth. 1 Corinthians15:47,48 Does God, Jesus and angels have natural , fleshly bodies? Did Adam/man have spiritual bodies ? (Bros !!) 1 Corinthians15:20 "Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those asleep" 1 Corinthians15:44They are buried as natural human bodies, but they will be raised as spiritual bodies" Jesus and the born again disciples were buried as natural human bodies and raised as spiritual bodies Is that rocket science wey Bros no fit understand? 1corinthians 15:44-49 . For just as there are natural bodies, there are also spiritual bodies. 45The Scriptures tell us, “The first man, Adam, became a living person.”h But the last Adam—that is, Christ—is a life-giving Spirit. 46What comes first is the natural body, then the spiritual body comes later. 47Adam, the first man, was made from the dust of the earth, while Christ, the second man, came from heaven. 48Earthly people are like the earthly man, and heavenly people are like the heavenly man. . 49Just as we are now like the earthly man, we will someday be like the heavenly man. 1 Corinthians 15:44,45,47 natural bodies is for men on earth. Adam is fleshly, natural man. Jesus Christ is a Spirit (giving life (resurrect the dead,verse 20-23) .Spiritual bodies is for dwellers in heaven. Bros, RECEIVE SENSE 1 Like |

livingchrist: Don't deceive yourself the teaching of Christ was meant for a purpose and no matter how you think you know it if the purpose is not met that's a sign you're not getting it! Matt 7:16-18 First of all as the Prince of Peace [Isai 9:6] Jesus' teachings must disarm all who accepted it and make them peace seekers. Mica 4:1-3 Secondly all those who accept it must live simple lives [6:19-21] this means the group will not promote materialism, never will you hear them speak of worldly riches as anything worthwhile! Luke 18:18-23 Thirdly Jesus' teachings will eradicate racism in the gathering of his true followers so no matter where you come from once you're a believer you are automatically their family member! Matt 12:46-49 Again Jesus' teachings will promote just one hope in the minds of all believers which is God's Kingdom [Matt 6:10] so they will not participate in any Political affairs since they knew the secret person behind world government is Satan! John 17:14-16 Satan is an evil genius he will make you think you're getting things right but then you will not be able to make peace with your fellow believers in other lands, it's only within your mind that you'll be convincing yourself there will be nothing to be observed in the activities of your church. As for the last statement you uttered regarding disunity in the first century Christian congregation, may God forgive you because that is an insult on the Holy Spirit! How can the spirit of division excel where God's Holy Spirit is operating? Rom 15:5-6; 1Cor 1:10; Ephe 4:3 Even Jesus prayed that such should not happen because that's the one and only sign of true worship! John 17:20-23 |
Re: After Jesus’ Resurrection, Was His Body Flesh Or Spirit? by livingchrist: 6:59pm On Oct 14, 2020 |
AkinwaleJJ:Jesus teaching was to bring salvation to man.yes Jesus teachings bring peace but such peace is as a result of reconciliation with God, that is the peace that Jesus preach. People are disarmed when they recieve Christ, this is a spiritual disarment. Can you mention anywhere in the bible where Jesus or his disciples said people should stop going to wall? Secondly all those who accept it must live simple lives [6:19-21] this means the group will not promote materialism, never will you hear them speak of worldly riches as anything worthwhile! Luke 18:18-23what do you mean by simple life? But Jesus teach about investing worldly riches into heavenly kingdom. Many of Jesus disciples where rich, Jesus never condemn riches. Thirdly Jesus' teachings will eradicate racism in the gathering of his true followers so no matter where you come from once you're a believer you are automatically their family member! Matt 12:46-49It shows you dont read the bible just gobble in what watch tower dishes you. Jwo teachings do not agree with scripture which is the first and the most important sign. The whole scripture is centered on Christ when a group teaching are not in agreement with Jesus no matter the fruit of such organisation or group it is of the devil. John 5:39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. |

livingchrist: Who is the ONE LIGHT that GIVES LIGHT TO ALL MEN that HAS extended to the EXTREMITIES of the WORLD. John 1:9 I was laughing to this initially as captured in the post of an individual you responded to....One person can't serve as light to the world for the light to shine brightly from one end of the earth At least the light CHRISTIANS radiate or emit came from ONE SOURCE as you rightly stated above by you. |
Re: After Jesus’ Resurrection, Was His Body Flesh Or Spirit? by livingchrist: 8:02pm On Oct 14, 2020 |
achorladey:Yea bro, their faith lies in human organisation not in the person of Jesus Christ. Jesus is the true light, he is the measure of everything. What makes a Christian is the unity of faith in Christ and his work on the cross. They may disagree on what to eat, days to worship, payment of tithe or church celebration, these are non essentials. |

livingchrist:This shows how empty you're regarding divine wisdom. If you're a born again Christian in the Nigerian Army will you aim your gun at your fellow born again Christian at war? what do you mean by simple life? But Jesus teach about investing worldly riches into heavenly kingdom.Simple life is what Jesus lived, no rich man can go knocking on the door of a poor man only to be insulted for coming uninvited, so Christians must humble themselves as nothing to become evangelists! It shows you dont read the bible just gobble in what watch tower dishes you.I repeat it that if you can't point to any group that's practicing what you're saying then your God is a failure, a real God controls a multitude of worshipers and make them have the same line of thought!
