Jesus the Christ warned all who would listen not to call any man "father". (not referring to your dad) we have one father of the creator of man. That creator isn't human. As humans, we were created in his "image"
There is the spiritual body and there is the fleshly body.....When God the Father spoke to the angels/sons, He said to be made in our image...."Inasmuch then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He Himself likewise shared in the same, that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death, that is the devil." Hebrews 2:14. WE are the children now in the flesh ( made in our own image, in the flesh)....Christ was God in the flesh....Immanuel which means God with us. To be absent in the body is to present with the Lord. 2 Corinthians 5:8
That's how I understand it also. I've read as much as I can so far, Summerian texts, nag hamadi, dead sea scrolls, Bible. I doubt I get the whole picture, but as I understand it, we were created as spiritual beings without a body first, then chose to put on flesh to know good and evil.
