Why did Christ’s glorified body still have wounds? Msgr. Charles Pope, Community in Mission Thursday, April 28, 2022 When Christ rose, He took up His same, true body, but it now manifested a perfected glory. When we rise on the last day, the same will be true of our bodies. Why, then, were Christ’s wounds visible in His glorified body? Are not wounds and scars inconsistent with a glorified body?
