The God Culture: There Is No Bodily Resurrection

What happens during the resurrection? According to Timothy Jay Schwab who is The God Culture only our spirits are resurrected. Our body is gone and turned to dust because we don't need it. We will get new bodies.

50:20 Now, it's time for the Feast of Tabernacles, okay? Also known as booths or tents which really are just interpretation of the same word, uh, Tabernacles but in Hebrew it's the word Sukkot. Again, tent. Foreshadowing of the day in which believers receive our new glorified bodies instead of our temporary temple. See, the body we're in right now is temporary. That's why it returns to dust and it never gets what, what's resurrected on the day of judgment for the dead is your spirit not your body. Body's gone. Don't need it because you'll get a new one on this day.

What verse does Tim cite to prove that our bodies are not resurrected? He cites none. But here are several verses telling us that the our bodies are raised. Of course they are changed and glorified but they are still the same bodies in which we lived.

The first thing to understand is that the body Jesus Christ died in was resurrected in a glorified manner.  It even retained the same wounds.

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.

Paul says Christ is the pattern for us in the resurrection.

Philippians 3:20 For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:

21 Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.

In Romans Paul says we are waiting for the redemption of our body.

Romans 8:23 And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.

Job says he will see God with the same body in which he is currently living. 

Job 19:26 And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God:

27 Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me.

Daniel says the dead shall rise out of the dust of the earth.
Daniel 12:2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.

What does it mean to sleep in the dust of the earth than our decomposed bodies, the very bodies we lived in, shall be raised to newness of life?

But Tim says our body is turned to dust and gone and we don't need it. Contrary to Paul we are not waiting for the redemption of our body because we will get a new one. The Bible says testifies otherwise. That there is no bodily resurrection is another unbiblical doctrine taught by Timothy Jay Schwab who is The God Culture.
