The belief that all is spiritual and that there is no salvation for the physical has been around for eons. That Jesus was spirit and not body is a part of that belief. It is just not true.

Nobody said that there was no salvation for the physical. Physical ceremonies and practices do not produce spiritual realities, but rather reflect them.

They are shadows of the spiritual reality.

It's like we have shadows that move when we move, but just because our shadows mimic our motions does not mean they cause us to move.
