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

Okay we can't really pin down life-giving spirit.

But still, we haven't addressed "became," or "was made," (ginomai)

"the last Adam became a life-giving spirit."

Heb 13:8 "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever."

Yet Paul says the last Adam became.

Somebody enlighten me. Please & thank you.

Is this another aspect of 15:45 that can't be pinned down?

Since Paul visited the church in Corinth, and spoke with them personally, prolly teaching and instructing, it's likely that the Corinthians understood what Paul was writing to them based upon previous speakings/teachings.

And that, perchance, is why we're having such trouble understanding 15:45.

We aren't privy to Paul's personal speakings & teachings -- we weren't there -- that would more than likely lend to our understanding.

Zeek brought up: "I don't want followers so I can admit it."

Zeek has no personal agenda so he can admit that he doesn't understand 15:45.

Lee had an agenda, so he was forced to come up with novel interpretations of scripture, to make it look like God was speaking special message to only Witness Lee ... like Lee had a dog-whistle hearing of God.

15:45 was a tool of Lee, supporting his pretense to be more than he was.
