Timeline for Jesus denied being a spirit (Luke 24:39), yet God is spirit (John 4:24). Can we connect the dots and conclude that Jesus is not God?

| Mar 3, 2021 at 17:48 | comment | added | The Chaz 2.0 | While I might be able to find issue with #3 or 4, let's start with #1: God is spirit. What does that mean? Does a spirit have a location? Can it be seen? Why is God being a spirit incompatible with him having or using a body? Why isn't John 4:24 part of a belief that says "God can exist as just a spirit" rather than "God cannot exist in physical form?" Lastly, Why can't Jesus' fourth statement be understood to mean "I am not just a spirit?" | |
