Yes it was God's redeemer Spirit in Heaven, Lord of Hosts that came down from Heaven and yes He is Spirit and He came and dwelt in the Flesh and spiritually we must eat His Flesh.
He gave His Flesh on the cross for the life of the world. We eat His Flesh by accepting His sacrifice for our sins.
Certainly He can rightly state I am the first and the Last as the Eternal One was dwelling in Him in ALL fullness bodily!
Jesus the Son of MAN came from heaven.
That is what the scriptures say.
Mary would tell you she birthed Him here on this earth!
I wonder how does a man coming from anywhere fit in a woman's womb? I wonder how does a man in a womans womb come out of the womb as a baby? This has got to be a good material for "The Twilight Zone".
There's really only 2 choices here. Either Jesus is manna from heaven, the word of God, a man who came down from Heaven in a figurative sense, or in a literal sense. If it's figurative, then it makes sense. if it's literal, then you got an episode of the Twilight zone.

It is of necessity figurative and has to be reasoned out and I put out all the verses here in this discussion of the actual of it.
literal or figurative interpretation of those scriptures is the only 2 real possibilities; however, most people use unreal possibilities. A favorite is to define words to mean something other than what they mean, but there are many others, all of which are the unreal possibilities called logical fallacies.
So I guess there are really 3 possibilities in interpreting scripture that people use, literal, figurative, and logical fallacies. 2 real, and one unreal. Putting out all the verses on a topic only works if people decide between a literal and a figurative interpretation. It does no good against logical fallacy interpretations of scripture. And of course no one steeped in logical fallacies believes that they are steeped in logical fallacies. They think it's the other guy steeped in logical fallacies.
Someone posted one time that feeding trolls was not necessary. So some on forums I will not enter into discussions with. They come along to post, complain, preach and bully. Not for conversation, or edification, imo.
Peace in the body.
Yes to ignore a "troll" is the best policy and go on and not be upset or angry as anger burns oneself out and let the "troll" go.

Jesus came in the likeness of sinful flesh.
Romans 8:3
For what the law was powerless to do because it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh to be a sin offering. And so he condemned sin in the flesh,
Jesus was not a human acting like God. Jesus was God made like a human.
Hebrews 2:17
For this reason he had to be made like them, fully human in every way, in order that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in service to God, and that he might make atonement for the sins of the people.
Jesus was found in the appearance of a man.
Philippians 2:8 And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death-- even death on a cross!
If Jesus was just a man, why is it so remarkable that he was found in appearance as a man?
Man cannot become God.
The Almighty God can become as a Man.
You are false judges. You call those who love God's Truth "trolls" because that is the only way you have left to defend your false doctrines. All you have left are personal attacks.
Your gentle answers, Gibs, and ducklow, they inspire me.
Learning how to converse on a forum with the many views involved is a learning expierence.
One of the first scriptures i memorized was, ' evil communications corrupt good manners'.
I have tried to live that best as i could. Grace being my guide.
Thanks for adding your scriptures also, very helpful to read.
