That is one possible meaning. But you seem to be throwing all the meanings into the same context.
That doesn't help us. Because we all agree with that.
We are disagreeing on what life means in the context.
And there are multiple meanings to that. Does the text mean simply being spiritual alive (as opposed to dead)
or does the text mean living the spiritual life and living it more abundantly?
You are falsely equivocating multiple definitions of life.
The text says no life (of a certain definition)
You say there is no life (of every definition)
