I’m LDS, and I have heard this said, however, I consider it more speculation rather than doctrine, as it is not defined in any scripture.
However, I had thought that non-LDS christianity had for the most part ignored the Bibilical story of the resurrection body of Christ since it does not conform to the super-biblical nicene creed?
It has been described to me that Christ pretty much ditched his resurrected body, that it was more for show, and that he resides as the complex spiritual being in heaven known as the Trinity. Again, this does not conform to the bible .... but when your doctrine is in conflict .... you either have to choose the bible or the nicene creed.
Don’t look at me about the Creed.
But I am happy that you don’t seem to believe, as did Joseph Smith, that the Bible needed a correction or to be rewritten or added on to.
How hard is it to leave LDS these days? What a nightmare, I’m sorry for you and pray that you find the Jesus of the Bible.
Holy Moley Batman; Elsie is agreeing with a MORMON!!
Not exactly sure what you are getting at here.
Are you implying the Nicene Creed somehow ADDS to what is in the Bible?
Or subtracts therefrom?
HMMMmmm…
We believe in one God, the Father Almighty, the maker of heaven and earth, of things visible and invisible.
And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the begotten of God the Father, the Only-begotten, that is of the essence of the Father.
God of God, Light of Light, true God of true God, begotten and not made; of the very same nature of the Father, by Whom all things came into being, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible.
Who for us humanity and for our salvation came down from heaven, was incarnate, was made human, was born perfectly of the holy virgin Mary by the Holy Spirit.
By whom He took body, soul, and mind, and everything that is in man, truly and not in semblance.
He suffered, was crucified, was buried, rose again on the third day, ascended into heaven with the same body, [and] sat at the right hand of the Father.
He is to come with the same body and with the glory of the Father, to judge the living and the dead; of His kingdom there is no end.
We believe in the Holy Spirit, in the uncreated and the perfect; Who spoke through the Law, prophets, and Gospels; Who came down upon the Jordan, preached through the apostles, and lived in the saints.
We believe also in only One, Universal, Apostolic, and [Holy] Church; in one baptism in repentance, for the remission, and forgiveness of sins; and in the resurrection of the dead, in the everlasting judgement of souls and bodies, and the Kingdom of Heaven and in the everlasting life.[60]

Perhaps you can enlighten those who have only heard me quoting from Mormon sources all these years.
Care to highlight the wrongness found in any statement here?
I believe in one God,
the Father almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible.
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the Only Begotten Son of God,
born of the Father before all ages.
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father;
through him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation
he came down from heaven,
and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary,
and became man.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate,
he suffered death and was buried,
and rose again on the third day
in accordance with the Scriptures.
He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory
to judge the living and the dead
and his kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church.
I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins
and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead
and the life of the world to come. Amen.
