See this is where we get confusing. You say "flesh"...do you mean skin? And when you say "the flesh is not God" do you mean skin is not Spirit?

If God was incarate then God became a man, by definition. You are a man. You are a person. You are flesh (skin).

God (person) is both Spirit (Deity) and Flesh (Humanity). Meaning He HOW God exists Eternally in His Divine nature is Spirit. How God came to exist temporally in His Humanity is Flesh (not merely skin).

By flesh we mean human nature.
