this really stands out like a sore thumb next to everything else you put about having a carnal nature.
which means it's something amazing, that isn't being properly understood!!


none of what you quoted says the body is not resurrected nor redeemed, or that the physical creation of God was not made very good, or was destined for destruction from the beginning.
even everyone's favorite verse of the week, 1 Cor 15:50, does not say Christ was only masquerading as a a real physical body after He rose, and left a corpse behind when He ascended - - and we know that exactly like He rose, He will also raise us.
it says inheritance of the Kingdom isn't by flesh and blood - not that the body is irredeemable, not that we won't be physically raised to inhabit the new earth. it does not say the body cannot enter the Kingdom of the Son Who came in the flesh. it says the flesh is not the way in which that kingdom is inherited.
“none of what you quoted says the body is not resurrected nor redeemed, or that the physical creation of God was not made very good, or was destined for destruction from the beginning.”
yeah because im not arguing any of that this isn’t arguing against a resurrection it’s just saying “ look what Paul said about the resurrection body “ and then I’m agreeing with what he’s saying like this
“
it is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body.
There is a natural body, and
there is a spiritual body.”
1 Corinthians 15:44
see he’s actually talking about the subject of the resurrection body there in just saying I agree with Paul
“But
some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come? Thou fool, that which thou sowest is
not quickened, except it die: and
that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain:”
1 Corinthians 15:35-37 KJV
See I’m saying ^^^ Paul’s explaining
our resurrection bodies for us clearly he even explains that we lived on earth and needed this earthly body but when we’re raised we’ll need heavenly spiritual ones
“So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in
incorruption: it is sown in dishonour; it is raised in
glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power: it is sown a natural body; it is raised a
spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.”
1 Corinthians 15:42-44 KJV
a ot corrupt but
incorruptable not dishonorable but
glorious not weak but
powerful not natural but
spiritual
That’s what I’m saying not arguing any of that stuff like there’s no resurrection body or anything . My position is we could all just learn from what they are saying so for me the whole argument is really clear that Paul’s making there why he’s saying it and what he’s saying
“As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly. And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly. Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.”
1 Corinthians 15:48-52 KJV
right so my position is there’s a physical natural body that we have right now while we live on earth , it will die and decay and return to the dust is was made from but …. But our spiritual body will rise again when Jesus returns from heaven .
This one’s like a seed
it has to die n order to become what it will be later Like Paul’s saying there on this earth we have earthly bodies we dwell in but later we’ll get better glorified ones .
It actually says
flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God which is what the gospel is all about it’s a conclusion of what he’s been explaining about the natural body for earth and the spiritual one for eternity in the chapter this stuff that really you seem to be overlooking
“How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come? “
“it is
sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body.
There is a natural body,
and
there is a spiritual body.”
1 Corinthians 15:44 KJV
As is the earthy,
such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly. And as we have borne the image of the earthy,
we shall also bear the image of the heavenly. Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; ( it’s not just a verse it’s a long explaination ending there ) neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we
shall all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and
the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.”
that’s all I’m saying there’s a natural body for earth that’s going to die and there’s a spiritual body that’s going to be raised up later . I’m just acknowledging Paul’s explainition I used to not think that either but it’s really a good clear perfect explaination he gives
