If Jesus has a body of flesh and bone and spirit, and Jesus and God are made of the same substance, then what substance is God the Father made of?
Don't respond by saying I don't understand who God is. Explain how Jesus is made of flesh and bone and spirit, but the Father is only spirit, but according to the Trinity theology, they are made of the same substance. You need to explain that to me. Thanks.
But you don't understand. Nicodemus struggled to understand some things, too.If Jesus has a body of flesh and bone and spirit, and Jesus and God are made of the same substance, then what substance is God the Father made of?

You have to know that he is not fully human any more. He does not have blood flowing through his veins at this time. He is a resurrected being, and although he has a body of flesh and bone and spirit, it is not like our human body of flesh and bone and blood and spirit.
He has an exalted body that is not human. He was fully human and fully divine during his earth life, but now he is just fully divine. Kind of makes sense since the resurrection and exaltation procedures have taken place.
Are we talking about God the father or his son Jesus Christ? If they are three in one and of one substance then we are right that God the Father has a glorified resurrected body.Fully human---always will be. As He was when the disciples touched Him. He has a glorified human body, but He is also fully divine.

Then the father must have one as well since they are the same
I decided to look up the word nature in 2 Peter 1:4 in Stronge's
the sum of innate properties and powers by which one person differs from others, distinctive native peculiarities, natural characteristics ...
So we are partakers of the divine natural characteristics.
OK, Jesus has a glorified human body. This is biblical, so there is no argument here.Fully human---always will be. As He was when the disciples touched Him. He has a glorified human body, but He is also fully divine.

Now, tell me if you believe that God the Father and Jesus and the HS are 1 God?
'made' is a bad word in this context. Thanks for pointing that out to me.Please cite where Trinity theology states that they are "made" of the same substance. I am specifically looking for the word "made".
Once you figure that out you'll realize why your line of questioning is fallacious.
The short answer is 'yes', but we have nothing to do with Him. We only have to do with our Father and His only begotten Son Jesus Christ. If you get too caught up in the Father's Father, you can get out of focus with our Father and what He is commanding us to do. So we know He exists, but that is the end of it. Our Father, who is also the Father of Jesus, and Jesus himself, is all we focus on.Does the father's father have one too?

That is why Moses used the name Elohim for the first name of God in Genesis, read Genesis 1:1. El is the singular for God. Elohim is plural for Gods or Council of the Gods. A more proper rendering of Genesis 1:1 would be, And in the beginning, the Council of the Gods created the heavens and the earth.So The heavenly Father has a Father???----Strange He never mentions Him. Where is the biblical evidence for this concept?
Isa_44:8 Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared it? ye are even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea, there is no God; I know not any.
He is from everlasting to everlasting
