Christ(Son of God) existed before he inhabited flesh for a time and is now as he was ib the beginning.. Spirit..But then so are we spirits.. which was Jesus chief message.. That we are basically not flesh but spirits inhabiting flesh, for a time, as he did himself

So, you are saying we pre-existed as "spirits" and then (for some reason, such as being "naughty" maybe?) got "punished" and incarcerated in a body? Is that what you are preaching, hosepipe?

I beleive Christ WAS God in the flesh..

So, you are denying His bodily resurrection as well? Did His body decay? Was His resurrection only an illusion?

When the flesh dies the spirit is free for another body/vessel

Oh, so you are also preaching re-incarnation?

we are slaves to this flesh..Hell might be being condemned to the flesh for eternity

Tank you for finally exposing your book-case Gnosticism, hosepipe.

No.. I'm saying JESUS pre-existed as the Son of God(being eternal you know).. was incarnated, and was resurrected, body and all... you know like Lazarus was.. except was in the SAME body.. According to acts Jesus body went thru walls.. no human body could do that.. [ So, you are denying His bodily resurrection as well? Did His body decay? Was His resurrection only an illusion? ]

Nope.. being GOD he could resurrect ROCKS.. like he did with Lazarus.. When he appeared one of times(after resurrection) hes said don't touch me.. Another time there was the Thomas story/event.. WHat you're saying I'm not inplying what I'm saying your not "getting".. [ Oh, so you are also preaching re-incarnation? ]

Nope... Im preaching re-enspiritation.. God is Spirit and we are spirit to.. "the flesh profits NOTHING".. You know the verses(you know in the bible).. I hope.. [ Thank you for finally exposing your book-case Gnosticism, hosepipe.]

Gnostic Smoskic.. Gnostics were fatalists, like muslims.. I'm not.. I get the feeling you obsess on Gnostism.. and are maybe a Cargo Cultist.. like many christian religionists..

What IS a christian by your standards?...
