His spirit returned to the Father and his body was placed in a tomb. Separation of body and spirit is death.
A dead persons spirit remains with the bones.
The verse which says the spirit goes back to God who gave it, does not refer to what happens at death.
A picture of resurrection from the dead is given in--
2Ki 13:21 And it came to pass, as they were burying a man, that, behold, they spied a band of men; and they cast the man into the sepulchre of Elisha: and when the man was let down, and touched the bones of Elisha, he revived, and stood up on his feet.
The Holy Spirit was still with the bones of Elisha in the tomb.
Go for a walk among the graves in your town and you will know if you are a man of the Spirit.

When Mary was impregnated.
Rather interesting. How long was He in the tomb? What was it that He said?
Revelation 1:17-18 King James Version (KJV)
17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:
18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.
He said the sign of Jonah would prove he is the Messiah. (Matthew 12:40)
A serious study of what the fathers taught...not scripture.....this thread should not be in the ECT
Scripture does not say Mary was impregnated with anything.
So you are saying that God the Father begat God the son through Mary.
So God the Son did not exist before He was born.

Christ always existed, he was eternal until he surrendered his immortality to become mortal.
Christ was no one's Son until Mary conceived. (Matthew 1:20-21)
No scripture says Christ surrendered His immortality.
Christ is the Spirit which led Israel in the wilderness and preached through Noah to men before the flood.
Jesus was given His Fathers name.
Jesus was born a man, raised a man, and is forever a man.
Rom 8:29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.

Many people don't accept the divinity of Jesus. You are one of many.
If you reject him he will reject you from his kingdom.
The record of scripture is how God raised up the first man in Gods express image.
You make a false charge based on your false religion.
LA
If Christ was immortal then he didn't die. Immortals are not subject to death.
Yes, he was. So why did you say: "No scripture says Christ surrendered His immortality."
Legally Christ was immortal for death is the wages of sin , His life could be taken from Him but only by breaking the law...this is how the law overstepped it's juristiction and forever lost it's power over all who put their trust in Him.
It is incredibly dull and stupid to keep affirming that Christ is not God when the bible says He is
The Bible says Jesus is the son of God.
It says God dwelt in Him
You claim otherwise.

Christ is the Spirit of the Father of Jesus.
Which name was given to His son.
Php 2:9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
Php 2:10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
Php 2:11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Where Jesus Christ is Lord, the supreme authority placed there by God, not LORD.(Yahveh)

What you just said doesn't make any Spiritual sense? Why not elaborate for us?
A Trinity exists. God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit, yet, these three are one.
