Hi Bill. Thanks for the reply
I would offer. We live in a corrupted body of death. Flesh had been judged as sinful in the garden. Therefore these earthen bodies will return to the dust of the field from where it was formed of and if a person has not been born again then their corrupted spirit returns to God who gave it..
Jesus of his own corrupted flesh said it profits for nothing. That it is the unseen Spirit that quickens our souls. His word is Spirit and life giving.
The father poured His Spirit on the corrupted flesh of the Son of man, Jesus. He condemned sin in the flesh we live in, a body of death. But Christ's sacrifice rendered flesh useless to destroy our new born gain Spirit. It will be raised along with our new incorruptible bodies on the last day . As we are informed in Philippian 1:6 .If the Spirt of Christ has begun the good work of salvation in us he will finish it till the last day..... the same time of receiving the promised new incorruptible body, as the bride of Christ.
Romans 8:2-4 King James Version (KJV) For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the
likeness of sinful flesh, and
for sin,
condemned sin in the flesh: That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us,
who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
In that way we are to know no man after the flesh not as expressing God as a corpse. He is not a man as us a course . .

That three day outward demonstration of the invisible work of God fulfilled the old testament prophecy.
Joel 2:28And it shall come to pass afterward, that
I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days
will I pour out my spirit.
Another of the same prophecy spoken to by Zechariah
Zechariah 12:10 And
I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the
spirit of grace and of supplications: and
they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn
Corrupted flesh was needed for the one time demonstration of pouring out his Spirit. We walk by faith.
