John 20:17-18
17 Jesus said to her, “Do not cling to Me, for I have not yet ascended to My Father; but go to My brethren and say to them, ‘I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to My God and your God.’ ” 18 Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord, and that He had spoken these things to her.
Jesus had to go to the Father bodily and not just in spirit. He is our Father and God, and we too will go to Him when we die, for Christ as the first fruits made the way. So we have peace with God.
