Does the term "perfect human being", as would be Christ, if he returned, not imply that it would not matter what body he may come in, or use, for he would perform in any shape, size, or form any actions with Divinity, i.e. as a perfect human being?

You have touched upon an important insight. Those who cannot reconcile this paradox will not move past this point until they do. Yes, I would agree with your first question/statement.

~~~ DH ,,, In the same body this is called a Hermaphrodite, which is NOT a perfect human being, but a genetic anomoly with great Karmic ramifications. Remember the Tai Chi Symbol, or Yin-Yang, is representative of The Duality of The Universe, The Law of Cause and Effect, Newtonian Physics, for Christians "as ye sew, so shall ye reap.". It requires the Synergy of the two complementing energies of male/female to procreate and extend The Species. Thus perfection lies in cooperation with others resulting The Harmony of Energies,,, creating Life. What could be more "perfect"? The Symbol illustrates that within THIS particular universe, among The Multiverses, Harmony=Perfection. Other Universes have different "Laws of Physics".

well, all the examples in the scriptures of those that are spirits(i.e, Jehovah, Jesus[the word], and angels), are always in the masculine.
as regards humans? the first humans were created perfect.
Contrary to popular belief, Christ's return, will be as a ruler from heaven. If he returns physically to the earth then the ransom sacrifice is no longer valid.
Also, the headship laid out in the Bible is thus: God, then Christ, then man, then woman, then children. For God or Christ to appear as a woman violates this headship rule.

I beg to differ. There can not be, by definition, a "perfect" human being. Humans have to have some imperfections. Other wise a human would equate and arrogate himself to be God. Many verses in Bible will reveal that Jesus was unsure of his actions on several occasions. He did cry out"Ali Ali lama sabaktani" I need not go in to the reasons, lest it might hurt the feelings.

No, Christ will return in the clouds. All will see Christ when he returns like we see the Sunshine.
There are no perfect humans on this planet, we all have
sinned and come short of the glory of God.
But by the blood of Jesus, we are forgiven and will live forever.

To give a different approach to your question, I would say according to Buddhist beliefs, that before we are reincarnated, the essense of mind only exists.
Due to the belief that our true inner-mind would be without a body, then our mind (consciousness) would be without a sexual identity.
When we are born our minds distracted by the five senses, and the roles each sex performs in what ever society we grow up within.
What the word "Buddha" means is really enlightened one, which either men or women can attain over many years or lifetimes.

Nope, not at all. Perfection means not that you have to have the sex of both but that your body is perfect, mind and all that is in you is working perfectly, something we are to strive for but we will not have that perfect body till Jesus comes back for His people. Christ lived a perfect life in that He never sinned but he still had to eat and drink water and such. It is described in the bible that when we get to Heaven we will have a perfect body as Jesus does now, that is not subject to death, to hunger or thirst but we will eat and drink but there are no toilets or bathrooms as our body will be perfect and we will not need to dispose of anything that was not digested all the way as we do now. When we eliminate our wastes, we are putting out that which was not perfectly digested and is not needed by our body. In Heaven we will have perfect bodies, thus no need for bathrooms. We still have our own traits just as Adam and Eve did. They did not have the sexual organs of both to be perfect any more than we need them.

Perfection is found not in some conceptual idea of a 'perfect' human but, instead, in the absence of concepts where the ego/self is transcended and the 'true nature' of things is seen. Without our human tendency to categorize (especially the categorization/idealization of some human perfection), perfection exists. It's subtle but important.

Hmmm, I do see your point. Perfect does mean complete. I guess the perfect person as far as we can accomplish is a man and woman joined in holy matrimony. On the other hand, woman WAS taken out of man, and we have to take what's been revealed to us from God and His Word describes Him as a man, but I'm sure He has feminine qualities (or what we consider feminine).

Oh dear; what a lot of nonesense:
God created man in his image; male and female created he him. And then he separated HIM into two! Read before making statements ... Meaning: God and all angels are androginous. ALL HUMAN used to be angels before they came to earth and in the image of God: androginous. Only when we on earth are we separated into two and we can be either sex, since spirit has no sex. Jesus-spirit HAS NO DOUBT also been female at one point or another. But if he was, then we wont know about it, because the churches do not allow woman priests; why should they believe in female angels.
Mary, Jesus mother was the power of archangel Ariel, and Joseph the wisdom af Ariel.
Ruth, Martha and her sister Mary were all three female archangels on earth namely Gabriel, Emanuel and Rafael and so was Maria Magdalena who was Uriel. But the church will NEVER admit that, even if they knew about it.
So EVERYBODY has a twinself, a part of us that is missing. Jesus's too has a part that is of the opposide sex, but we dont always are on earth at the same time or meet. Believe it or not...

It does not make a difference really only that I know as a muslim that Jesus (pbuh) will return as himself, not sure about the 'perfect human being' bit. But I know he will return as a muslim and lead us all in prayer like Prophet Muhamed.
Peace
