Jen's Thoughts

Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to share my beliefs with you! I’m not looking for converts (though, of course, I would never object), but I would like to be able to speak more freely among my friends and be understood. Many of you have asked me questions about my church and so have discovered that I am not blessed with the gift of verbal expression. I hope to be more comprehensible in writing! Please feel free ask me anything and to share with me things that are important to you.

Question--Christ's body

A couple of years ago I was reading the New Testament and I began to wonder what Trinitarians believe happened to Christ's body after he was resurrected. I was sure that there must be a reasonable explanation, as there are for the things people don't understand about my faith. I have asked a few people, but I haven't found a satisfying answer yet. Does anyone know?

Christ's body was resurrected when he was resurrected. He appeared to Thomas and showed him His nail scarred hands in John 20:24-27.

Yes, I believe that Christ has a body. My question is that my understanding of the intangible trinitarian God seems to conflict with the resurrected Christ. I feel like maybe I'm missing something and I would like to understand.

Notes

Scripture use:
I frequently quote scripture because the expressions it it are so much more beautiful than I could offer on my own. My understanding of scripture may be different from yours--I don't expect to prove that my interpretation is correct. Scripture is best understood with God's help.

My questions to you:
When I ask a question, please know that it is sincere. I have no intent of exploiting a technicality or making you uncomfortable. These are my own questions that I discover as I try to understand other points of view and beliefs that do not make sense to me.

Most of what I know about other belief systems I have learned from my own research or I have been told by my friends. (The LDS church only undertakes to teach LDS doctorine.) You are my main source for understanding other points of view. I thank those of you who are willing to share.
