I was raised in the Mormon church, and am pretty sure that incorporeal was all that was meant. As opposed to flesh and blood.
As one who *does* believe that God is incorporeal, that God couldn't be confined to a mere body, I find nothing offensive at the thought. I always consider God to be beyond my understanding and vast enough to fill the universe. Isn't there a belief in the Jewish Kabbalah (could be wrong here, it's been a while) that God's breath is what sustains the universe? I've always loved that thought.
