2 Corinthians 5:16 Paul says that there was a time we knew Jesus , ACCORDING TO THE FLESH, or AS A HUMAN BEING but now we know Jesus this way no longer. When Jesus walked this Earth he was a human, flesh and blood but after his ascension we know him differently. The question is what is this difference ? How is Jesus no longer flesh and if no longer flesh then what is Jesus ? This cannot mean that Jesus had a fleshly mind, it is referring to his body. John 6:63 Christ is now the heavenly man not Earthly. In the kingdom there will be no male or female and this applies to the saints as well as the angels. In the kingdom there will be no flesh and blood. There was a time when the Apostles saw, heard and touched Jesus, 1 John 1:1-2.
