Re: "Become" or "Not Become" Interpreting 1Cor 15:45

And to support my claim, I have to look no further than the passage that you yourself quoted. Because there Paul states "I do not know" not once but twice. So we see that there was a limit to Paul's revelation. He who preached about natural and spiritual bodies with such authority in I Corinthians 15 admits here that he did not know if his own visions and revelations were in-the-body or out-of-body experiences.

2Co 12:6 For though I would desire to glory, I shall not be a fool; for I will say the truth: but now I forbear, lest any man should think of me above that which he seeth me to be, or that he heareth of me.
And we did just that ...
