A Man is Part of the Trinity

Ok Lets look at two things in your argument Curtis. First the word Christ. What does it mean? It has no meaning at all in English. It is one of the few words not translated in the KJV. The word christ simply means 'the anointed one, and His anointing' Is that correct? Ok So we are in christ....We are in the anointed one. We are in His anointing. Simpler....We are anointed with the same anointing that Jesus is anointed with. And we are to walk in that anointing.
Second. Jesus told Mary (I think it was Mary) not to touch him. John 20:17 but in John 20:27 He told Thomas to thrust his hand into His side. What happened between those two verses? Jesus ascended to the Father and got His glorified body? No doubt in my mind. Why? If He had the same body that Mary was not allowed to touch, why was Thomas allowed? Something changed.
Your turn brother.....

BTW? I really enjoy talking with you.

When God raised up Christ from the dead did he just raise up an "anointing" or was it a person, or both? The word "Christ" refers to a person. Jesus was his name and he was the "Christ"

Eph 2:5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved)
Eph 2:6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:

Rom 8:11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

Jesus even said he had not yet ascended to his father. The reason Jesus told Mary not to touch him is because he wanted her to go immediately and tell his disciples that he had risen from the dead.

John 20:17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.

Still, Jesus had not risen to his Father as evidence by the fact the Holy Spirit had not yet been poured out as proof of his resurrection.

Act 2:33 Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear.

Tomas touched Jesus's resurrected physical body.

John 20:27 Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing.

This here is when Jesus ascended to his Father.

Mar 16:17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
Mar 16:18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
Mar 16:19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.
