Now Jesus offered his own soul and body for the sin of the world. The purpose for taking human flesh was to save humans; otherwise he might have taken on spiritual angelic flesh (Heb 2:5).

But let's speculate a little. What if Jesus had a body before his incarnation? Well then, what happened to it? Did he have one body and then just throw it into a trash can and take another one at the incarnation? That is not a very biblical view of those created in God's image (Gen. 1:26-27). It sounds more like Gnosticism which devalues the ...
Jan 4, 2022 · After spending forty days with His disciples, Jesus ascended bodily into heaven (Acts 1:9). Jesus is still human, and He has a human body in heaven right now.
