If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I."-- John 14:28.
[170]Many others have believed that Jesus, while on the earth, was still a spirit being and that his flesh was merely a covering or house in which that spirit being resided.

Otherwise stated, that he was merely an incarnated creature and not wholly a man.

The incarnation theory is that a spirit being inhabits for a time the human body, or a human body is created for the express purpose of that spirit being's occupying it for a time.

The incarnation of Jesus is Scripturally erroneous.

Indeed, if he had been merely an incarnated being, he could never have redeemed mankind.
