His nail scarred hands and side were to prove to His Disciples he was the same man...to establish the fact He was the Jesus they had followed. Those scars testified to His identity....they all were convinced and confessed that he was the Lord...and even faithless Thomas.

Further when Christ comes for Judgement.... “They shall look on him whom they have ‘pierced’”

We can not say our bodies scars even hint of meaning as that... Our bodies die in ‘dishonor’,.. but will be raised in glory...our bodies die in ‘weakness’...but will be raised in power.

We know this because of the body Christ was resurrected in. You can’t have it both ways. Scripture clearly argues for unity not just in the spirit but in the body between our bodies in heaven and our bodies today.

This is part of why Paul argues for Temples of the Holy Spirit.
