You cannot see a body if it is not physical. What about my response to you that MEN DID SEE HIS GLORY when you questioned that and asked where did they ever see His glory?

Who would get that idea out of what I said???? God has no right hand physically because He is omnipresent. Let's not get into a class on "God's Nature 101". That is kindergarten

I agree...God has no hand ..Stephen saw the glory
|
As men physically saw it as I quoted to you, when you said it cannot be seen physically.

The right hand of God is POWER. And many SAW God's glory before. It has been described as Christ shining in LIGHT, etc. Stephen saw Jesus in that position of GLORY. This is similar to the experience of Christ on the Mount of Transfiguration.

Of course He did... .just as over 500 saw it after His resurrection. And you never responded to my note how that Paul joined himself to the group of over 500 when Paul referred to his experience in
Acts 9, indicating Paul saw the same thing the 500 did. Not something different. All this, includiong the fact that the bible does not say He lost his physical body, tells us He retained it.

So how do you still retain Jesus is still physical after what you said here?Meaning still dwelling in the same body he left with?

Stephen saw his glory just as men saw the glory physically beforehand. And Stephen saw Jesus enough to recognize Him as Jesus, just as men did beforehand. This vision has all the elements of everything the 500, and others, saw. Add that to the fact that the bible says nothing about Him losing his physical body, and it all is the only sensible conclusion.
One has to add to the Bible in order to say the bible shows He does not still have that spiritual physical body.
