Were Jesus’ Resurrection Appearances Physical or Spiritual?
There is no doubt that Jesus Christ was resurrected from the dead. “If Christ has not been raised, your faith is in vain” (1 Corinthians 15:17 NAB). But how was he resurrected? In a physical body, or in a spiritual body? Were his appearances physical or spiritual, as a spirit?
Luke 23:53 – “Placed in a tomb . . . in which no one had yet been laid” (NIV). There could be no mixup about Jesus’ body, because there were no other bodies in this brand new tomb.
RESURRECTED AS A SPIRIT
