So even if 1 Cor 15:45 did not exist, would any of you say that Jesus Christ was NOT a life-giving spirit? And if you would agree that he is, think about what you would mean by that. That's probably what this verse means, too.

Don't let me stop you from wrangling with it, though. Carry on.

Great insight brother Igz!

Didn't Paul also admonish these same Corinthians to remain in the simplicity which is in Christ? At some point child-like faith in the plain words of scripture has to be a great blessing.
