>>Jesus had flesh. If He didn’t, then He could not have died on the Cross and none of us are redeemed.<<

Catholics just don't get it. It's not Jesus flesh that saves. It's His shed blood. "The flesh prophiteth nothing".

But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.

“Catholics just don’t get it. It’s not Jesus flesh that saves. It’s His shed blood. “The flesh prophiteth nothing”.”

You can’t have one (blood) without the other (flesh). Jesus gave both on the Cross. He still gives both in the Eucharist.

And don’t ever trust your spelling. It’s “profiteth” not “prophiteth”. You’ve made this mistake before: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/religion/3219971/replies?c=41

To take “the flesh” of Jesus now, if that were even possible, would be a superfluous anachronism. “It is finished.” The Son donned that robe of flesh for a specific purpose. Once it died, the purpose was fulfilled.

Talking with some of these folks, it’s like they’re going the wrong way down a street whose signs all face away from them.
