Yes Robert I did indeed page back and read the posts you mentioned. I would offer you a hint though, if you really want people to read previous posts please make it easier by pasting the link into your posts.

For instance here is an article by Norman Geisler, entitled "I believe..in the resurrection of the flesh".

See how easy that is for you? You don't have to do a search just click and read.

There is no Scripture that says Christ walked through walls. You are reading that into the text. OTOH there are many explicit scriptures that say Christ had a physical body after He was raised from the tomb.

Luke 24:39 Look at my hands and my feet. It is I myself! Touch me and see; a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have."

40When he had said this, he showed them his hands and feet. 41And while they still did not believe it because of joy and amazement, he asked them, "Do you have anything here to eat?" 42They gave him a piece of broiled fish, 43and he took it and ate it in their presence.

Do non corporeal beings eat and drink?

John 20:25 ....But he said to them, "Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe it." ......27Then he said to Thomas, "Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe."
28Thomas said to him, "My Lord and my God!"

Considering you have no support from scripture to believe Christ's body was other that the same physical body that was crucified and raised.

John 2:19 Jesus answered them, "Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days."
20The Jews replied, "It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and you are going to raise it in three days?" 21But the temple he had spoken of was his body.

I'll have to leave the promise of the believers physical resurrection to another post. A spiritual resurrection is no resurrection at all it is a denial of the resurrection. Clearly you are in serious error and do not believe one of the essential elements that make one a true Christian.
