1 | How did He get into closed rooms? | John 20:19 | Makarios | 7756 | ||
If Jesus' resurrection body was physical in nature, how could He get into closed rooms, apparently by materialization? | ||||||

Nolan that's simple He is God and can do anything He wants. Why ask the question? I hope your not suggesting in anyway that he had to be a ghost or spiritual being to accomplish this. I think that is the falsehood the JW's teach. |

EdB, you will be very unsuccessful at labeling me as a Jehovah's Witness. In no way am I part of a cult or participate in any cult, and I will never consciously participate in one. The reason why I asked the question was because I was looking for something along the line of my next paragraph.. It's a shame that I cannot expect an honest answer to a question without being labeled as something. Jesus' resurrection body was 'material' (see Luke 24:39). The fact that He could get into a room with a closed door does not prove He had to dematerialize in order to do it. One must keep in mind that if He had chosen to do so, Jesus could have performed this same miracle before His death in His preresurrection material body. As the Son of God, His miraculous powers were just as great before Resurrection. Prior to His resurrection Jesus performed miracles with His physical body that transcended natural laws, such as walking on water (John 6:16-20). But this miracle did not prove that His preresurrection body was immaterial or even that it could dematerialize. Otherwise, Peter's preresurrection walk on water would mean his body dematerialized for a moment and then quickly rematerialized (Matthew 14:29)! Scripture indicates that the resurrection body, although physical, is by its very nature a supernatural body (1 Cor. 15:44). Hence, it should be expected that it can do supernatural things, such as appearing in a room with closed doors. This was the idea that I was trying to convey and had an interest in. |

Nolan I did not label you anything! Nor did I infer you were a JW. I did say I hope you weren't suggesting Jesus was merely a spirit which happens to be a falsehood many including the JW teach. My choice of words were probably wrong and for that I apologize to you. As to your second remark if you will reread what I said you will see I gave you an honest answer. In fact it is the same answer you gave in your third paragraph. I only did it in a lot less words. Nolan I’m sorry for any misunderstanding, I just wanted to respond to your question in such a way that no opportunity was given for someone to come along and teach a falsehood saying Jesus was just a spirit etc, etc, etc. |
