Incorrect. I already addressed that allegation, but let me repeat it. Mortality and death being swallowed up of life applies to nothing except the BODY in the all-important context in which it is found in 1 Cor 15. It means something mortal becomes something immortal. The question begs to be asked if the soul is mortal already or not? Not changed. To be swallowed up of life, something has to first be mortal. Mortality applies to the body.

Is context
REALLY all important? Just think, there are 58 verses in chapter 15 of first Corinthians. It is the most concise teaching on immortality and life after death that appears anywhere in the Bible!
And
YET.....not even one mention of anyone dying and going to Heaven apart from the
RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD!
And you are saying that
CONTEXT is all important?
