    1 Cor.15.44-45) "Glory" (3 of 4)

    "It is raised a spiritual body."

    Jesus made of woman has a natural body but being anointed it is the Word become flesh, and all other attributes of the word which is Law being present. "And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him."(Jn.8.29)

    "And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written,/ The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor." Jesus meant the poor in spirit. This is made clear in the house of Bethany. She broke the alabaster box because she was poor in spirit. " For ye have the poor always with you; but me ye have not always./For in that she hath poured this ointment on my body, she did it for my burial."(Mt.26.11-13)

    This memorial is as valid as this body holds a memorial in heaven so the 24 elders and four beast signify," And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth."(Rev.5.10). As a book end to it we have this body anointed by a woman whose pure spirit, by faith anointed the Son of man. "Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, there shall also this, that this woman hath done, be told for a memorial of her." It is how the Spirit has settled on the death and resurrection of Jesus from four gospels so the risen Christ is anointed for the spiritual body 'God hath prepared me.'

    In his prayer he makes it clear that glory was his, "I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do./And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was." But it made the extent of the body reach its fullest expression by his death and resurrection. We have another embalmementin Jn.19.39-40) It was ' as the manner of the Jews is to bury.'
