You're missing the point, perhaps purposely, hopefully not, and seem to be denying the actual truths that set me free. I Cor 15.45 was instrumental to working out my salvation.

I find it so ironical that you endlessly deny the obvious reading of scripture here, "the Last Adam became life giving spirit," and are willing to embrace Nigel's thought that "life giving spirit" becomes the description of every believers own spiritual body in resurrection. Now that is a novel thought.

How can you deny that the last Adam became life giving spirit and accept that all believers become life giving spirit? By analogy, that's like accepting all humans are "living soul," yet refusing to believe such a description applies to Adam. Yet 15.45 says plainly that Adam became a living soul, and Christ became life giving spirit.

This is not that complicated bro. This does not require theological doctors. Your years of Lee-hate clouds your thinking. Just believe the Bible. You will be so much more joyful!
