Great minds... I was writing mine and posting then I saw yours.Its biblical, literal meaning.
How can you sit on a throne as a spirit ?

I cannot believe this has to be defended with "christians" and that they oppose the plain truth taught by Jesus and the Apostles.Great minds... I was writing mine and posting then I saw yours.
Does God have a right hand? Is He sitting on a throne? If God is spirit, which direction is at His right?Its biblical, literal meaning.

Sitting at the right hand of God has nothing to do with actually sitting. Nor does it have anything to do with an actual thrown. Nothing outside of this physical universe is physical.@ Jim,
How do spirits sit? If Jesus is a spirit... I wonder about this... We know the Holy Spirit just lights where it will but this is confusing to me
And I can't believe that Christians think heaven is a physical existence of any sort.I cannot believe this has to be defended with "christians" and that they oppose the plain truth taught by Jesus and the Apostles.

Hmmmm.I cannot believe this has to be defended with "christians" and that they oppose the plain truth taught by Jesus and the Apostles.
I guess some think we will be invisible spirits living in an invisible place for eternity.
the new heavens and new earth will be invisible
the new Jerusalem will be invisible
the river of life invisible
the tree of life invisible
Jesus invisible
Throne invisible
fruit invisible
water invisible
light invisible
streets invisible
walls invisible
bodies invisible
see how ridiculous this gets.
"If the plain sense of the text makes common sense, seek no other sense, lest it become nonsense," is a principle of biblical interpretation (hermeneutics), urging readers to first understand the literal, ordinary meaning of scripture
Some make complete nonsense out of the bible.
Ok... lets say you are right.Does God have a right hand? Is He sitting on a throne? If God is spirit, which direction is at His right?

You cannot separate the Resurrection from the Ascension and 2nd Coming. Its the same Jesus.
My top 10 reasons your view is unbiblical and mine is 100% biblical.
1-Jesus is the same yesterday today and forever
2- Jesus is the son of man forever
3- The Incarnation was permanent, not temporal
4- Jesus is and will always be God manifest in the flesh
5- This same Jesus whom you have seen Ascend into heaven will come back the same way- " bodily", "physical"
6- After Jesus Ascended He appeared personally to Paul-
7- For there is One Mediator between God and man, the man Christ Jesus
8- Jesus is called the son of man in heaven
9- The son of man is who returns at His 2nd Coming
10- Jesus will be a literal King as the son of man during His Millennial Kingdom for a 1,000 years
hope this helps !!!
That is a condition of being human. You claim Jesus is human. Therefore, Jesus must still be a little less than the angels.
You said Jesus was the same past, present and future.
And I can't believe that Christians think heaven is a physical existence of any sort.
