What would the answers to these questions mean to you? If nothing, then your question is insincere and insulting. - Neverknew
Not insincere at all. Its just easier for believers to dismiss my questions as insincere so they don't have to address them. They are genuine questions that should make you think about the implications of your assertions.
Nowhere does the bible claim that Jesus' body is bloodless.
Yes Jesus bled on the cross but where does it say that all of his blood was drained from his body?
Yes he gave his life and the life is in the blood. But according to you he got his life back when he was raised from the dead, so why didn't he get his blood back?
Yes the bible says "flesh and blood cannot inherit....." but that is simply a metaphor, it is what is called idiom. Do some research on the Greek.
So where does this ridiculous idea come from that Jesus has a bloodless human body?
A bloodless body has no need of a heart or lungs, no digestive system, no anus, no bladder or penis. These are the inescapable conclusions of claiming he has a bloodless body.
Jesus the man was fully human was he not? He ate, defecated, farted and burped like any other human did he not?
After his resurrection did he not eat to prove he was human? Didn't he show off his wounds to prove he still had exactly the same body that went into the tomb?
So between Jesus' resurrection and his ascension he ate, defecated, farted and burped like any other human did he not?
Contrary to Pterist's assertion nowhere does the bible support the claim that Jesus was " LATER TRANSFIGURED as A NEW CREATION, at his assension" - why all the upper-case?
Jesus simply ascended into the clouds. So if Jesus went to heaven with the same body that came out the tomb then Jesus still eats, defecates, farts and burps in heaven.
If Jesus body was changed on the way to heaven i t would be nothing more than a deception, something that is 100% non-human in a human shape but to call it human is meaningless.
A bloodless body is as far from human as it is possible to be for the reasons I have explained above.
So please don't hide from simple challenges by dismissing the person who asks them.
Pterist - I'm going to just ignore your childish insults. Try to focus.
