Jesus is God... begotten not made, of one being with the Father.
Now, God BECOMING flesh to come to Earth, does not mean that God is flesh. Far from it... if God had always been flesh, he could have come to Earth in his original form, rather than as Jesus Christ (in the form of a man).
Is this reverse theology?
Well, the phrase, made flesh, can also mean that Jesus was originally made as a flesh being.
As I have pointed out before, it was not Jesus entering into Mary's womb.
It was the Father and Holy Spirit conceiving the Son in Mary's womb.
Jesus, the Son, is not mentioned at all except to say that the Son would be conceived.
The same process as the male sperm and female egg meeting, only in this case the male and female of God, namely the Father and Holy Spirit, were Spirit only and Mary was the physical in the union.
The Word was God, and the Word was made flesh.
The Word was God, and God was made flesh. Pure and simple.
And Jesus did not lose His body with the resurrection, His body changed. He still has a body of physical substance. God is still physical substance with a distinct body. And that body is the body of a man. The Man that all others, including Adam, proceed from.
The whole point in having a Son was to become a physical, living, breathing God. God is the Son, and the Son is God. They are one.
And they are both Spirit and flesh.
God was not always flesh, that should be obvious. God became flesh as the Son.
