If Jesus resurrected "bodily" rather than "in spirit", than where is that
body now?
Can its location be described in space-time?
If not, then at some point Jesus' bodily resurrection became a spiritual
resurrection.
It seems to me that answering those points by claiming that Jesus was
resurrected in some type of glorified or spiritual body does not meet the
objection.
If the body was visible and could be localized in space-time in the 1st
century, why can we not do so now?
