**D&C 130: 22 The Father has a body of flesh and bones as tangible as man’s; the Son also;**

The Son IS the flesh and bones THAT the Father DWELLS in.

God the Father is a Spirit (John 4:24).

Jesus Christ declared that the Father was in him doing the works, giving him the words to speak:

John 10:38 “But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is IN me, and I IN him.

14:10 “Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak NOT of MYSELF: but the Father that DWELLETH IN ME, HE doeth the works”.

14:11 “Believe me that I am IN the Father, and the Father IN me: or else believe me for the very works’ sake.” And he just told us in the previous verse WHO DOETH the WORKS.

Jesus Christ, John, and Paul, all said that God is invisible.
God the Father made his attributes visible through Christ. Which is what the Son says thoughout the book of John.

The fact that your organization claims that the Father has a flesh and bones body, separate from the Son’s flesh and bones body, shows error in their very foundation. They are denying the words of Christ, John, and Paul.

No, what it denies is your interpretation of those scriptures.

The Father and Son are one in purpose.

On the cross Jesus proclaimed:

Mark 15:34
And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

This alone is undeniable proof that the Father and Son are two different and separate people. If not, how could one forsake the other?

Stephen looked into heaven and saw God sitting on His throne and Jesus standing at His right hand.

John 17:
22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:

Jesus wants His Apostles to share the same relationship as Jesus does with His Father. One in purpose and mind.

God showed Himself to Joseph Smith in order to clear up these false concepts of God that have come from the imaginations of men. Therefore we don't have to debate the subject. God has a body, Joseph saw it.

Heavenly Father is the literal Father of our spirits. He is not mystical or magical. We are made in His image. Children grow up to be like their parents. Jesus took His body up and went to our Father and so can it be with us.
