Of course His blood was RESURRECTED with His body: "Life is in the blood"

I think the issue isn't whether he was resurrected - and that this was a *miracle, meaning no blood necessarily required* - He is now in His *glorified* body, having ascended to the Father.

"See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. Touch me, and see. For a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see that I have.”

No mention of blood...

.....

This seems to be a discussion of an issue that doesn't bring salvation - especially to people in denominations that have never heard the Gospel of Grace, but are trapped in rituals and a hamster wheel of guilt and false works.

Dear aMorePerfectUnion: I just composed this for metmom when I saw your post, but it distinguishes “flesh and bone” from how Christ used the term “flesh and blood” in a way to answer your last:

The NAR loves to preach on glorified bodies; can’t recall it all but it has to do with their Manifest Sons Of God nonsense.

Same as how Rick Joyner preached that Jesus died on the cross as a spirit.

Anti Christ teachings!

Jesus’ blood was shed on the Cross once and for all, the Lamb of God. Yet He was also resurrected in His full flesh and bone body, and like Lazarus, ate meals.

“See my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. Touch me, and see. For a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you see that I have.”

Luke 24:39

Christ’s ascension, just as Elijah’s rapture, was in their flesh and bone bodies.

The contrasting idea that “flesh and blood” (as opposed to “flesh and bone”) cannot enter the Kingdom of Heaven has to do with the sufficiency of works done in the Spirit:

“Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.:...

(I leave you that scriptural tagline to get back to the problems of Catholicism...)

P.S. Jesus’ blood was shed on the Cross, but to deny that He again had blood running through His veins after the Resurrection is an anti-Christ position.

If He was not fully resurrected as a flesh and bone (including blood) man, then He was not truly resurrected.

Was Lazarus’ blood in his body when he was resurrected? Yes. Of course. That’s why the Pharisees were so upset when Jesus ate with him at his house the night before entering into Jerusalem... so upset that they plotted to kill Lazarus again! (LOL)

Jesus was resurrected in His full human body. With blood running through His veins. Anything less is from the evil one; and any idea that His resurrected body with blood somehow detracts from the finality of His shed blood on the cross is also from the evil one.
