There is only one day that will determine who is going to Heaven and who is not going to Heaven, and that day is NOT at the time of death of a person. That day is when Christ Returns and if your name is found in the Book of Life you get to go to Heaven, if it is not in the Book of Life, you are left behind. It is ONLY that day that determines who is going to Heaven and who is not. And since that day has not happened yet, nobody is in Heaven nor in Hell. Judgement Day will determine who goes to Heaven and does not go to Heaven. JUDGEMENT DAY is NOT at the time of death of a person.
God the Father is a spirit. Jesus is not. No man has seen the Father at any time, because there is nothing to see, He is not physical, He has no matter. He is PURE LIGHT. Jesus is physical, made of matter. His flesh is not like human flesh. Human flesh is bound by the physics of this planet that humans live on. Heavenly flesh, that is to say, like Jesus and the Angels is indeed flesh but not flesh from the Earth. That flesh does not age, or get sick, or hungers.
When Jesus and the two Angels came down to destroy Sodom they first stopped by Abraham's domain. They looked like ordinary men. So much so that Abraham, offered them shade under his tree, and offered them food. What need would a spirit have to sit under the shade? What need would a spirit have to eat food. Jesus and the Angels with Him, were in their Glorified bodies. 100% Flesh and in the image of humans. But not flesh of the Earth.
What this generation can't grasp is that in our Glorified bodies we are neither male nor female, but we can look male or female if we so choose, being the offspring of God. We can be an eagle or a shark. We are not limited by the physics of the planet Earth. The children of God have no form, or any form. They can choose to be a wisp of smoke (spirit) or a T-Rex (physical matter). Our Glorified bodies are neither Spirit or physical, they are whatever you choose to be. If you can't swallow this, then don't. if you can, then well. It matters not what you believe concerning this that i just said.
