The immortality of Christ was what it means for Paul to say "The Lord from Heaven", which is the flesh we shall have in our resurrection. This is why it is said we shall be changed, since flesh as it is now cannot inherit the kingdom.

Interesting. Are you thinking Christ has (and our resurrected bodies will have) spiritual flesh? I’ve always thought of it as being a spiritual body as opposed to flesh. In other words a spiritual body won't have flesh. That is part of the natural body.
