The Body of Jesus (crucifixion, Kingdom, experience, Christians, heaven)

[ChristineES]

What Mr. Peanut said.

But no one has seen Jesus (except Paul) since he returned to God's Kingdom. His human body had the scars, but I doubt His glorified body does.

[*Paul*]

Perhaps as a mark of identification for this future event:

Zechariah 12:10 And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.

Hi!

Good point!

Cheers!

All of that is nice but that wasn't what I was asking. Anyone who is born again will recieve a new body after death, why does Jesus still have His old body?

Hence the question.

That's not what you said. You asked how I knew. Since you admitted that I knew, how I knew was irrelevent to my question.

Accept Jesus into your heart and hope He accepts you then die right away. the new body will be awaiting you. A new mind as well.

Is that something we should concern ourselves with so much? We will know more when we arrive. We know Christ appeared to Paul as a light brighter than the noonday sun and he was blinded. We know he ascended to Heaven, yet was able to appear in the midst of a room, cook and eat, walk, and such. Revelation contains various very descriptive passages of Jesus. If he bears the scars for eternity, they would certainly serve as reminders of the price of our redemption, and his glory.

Cheers!

That's not the right answer, I think.

John saw him.

Close but not specific enough. Try Revelation 5.
