Where do the eternally born again, spend their days?

But our citizenship is in heaven.
Yes ,that is where the new Jerusalem is !
And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body.
Amen ! That is what the verses I posted twice talked about .
What we need is to know God's mind, or even Paul's for that matter, what is meant by 'be like his glorious body'. Jesus was without sin. His body was glorious even as he walked among us in Israel. It was not 'vile' and tainted by the wickedness of sin which destroys and kills our bodies. But, his body was flesh and he ate and drank. Our newly created bodies will likewise be without sin and the ravages it brings to us in growing old. So, it could likely be that the 'glorious body' that Paul writes about here is merely a body that has not suffered the ravages of sin as ours have.
Are you saying Jesus's body was in it's final state before he crucified ?
Nothing particularly magical or mystical about it at all. Just a glorious body that is used to serve God and without sin to destroy it. So, I would just repeat that your Scriptural offerings, while certainly correct in their reading, don't really give us any hint as to what our new bodies will actually, physically be like, other than 'glorious'.
Why do you say "magical" are you a fan of the dark arts ? Surely not .
 
The body of the lord is a mystery in that all powerful ,present ,and immortal being died .Jesus surrendered his God nature in that He didn't use it ,unless allowed to .

If I lay down my life ,I shall pick it pack up .

good luck grasping that fully . The scars of the cross are in heaven .
