The “human shell not seated at the RT hand of The Father” does not ring true to me at all.

However, I think we must take into account that

CHRIST’S BODY

is NOT identical—POST RESURRECTION

with the Body hung on The Cross.

I don’t think finite mortals can articulate or even fantasize well about what the differences might be.

However, one went through walls and one didn’t.

And, reportedly, there are no toilets in Heaven though there’s plenty of eating.

is NOT identical—POST RESURRECTION

who says that is was identical - no one. On the contrary the resurrected body is not pure spirit but of spiritual nature. Christ's glorious body is prefigured in John 6:1-13 where mere matter is multiplied by the divine power.

This is in according with the writings of Malachi 11For from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same my name shall be great among the Gentiles; and in every place incense shall be offered unto my name, and a pure offering: for my name shall be great among the heathen, saith the LORD of hosts. -- the purest of all offerings in heaven..
