1 | symbolic/literal scriptures? | Jer 32:35 | julcol87 | 227523 | ||
I understand what your talking about now, and I guess overtime I'll be able to tell right away, what scripture is symbolic and what is literal. I understand symbolic pretty clearly about the 30 ft scroll. So literal would be versus such as these: Mathew 25:41, 13:41-42 2 peter 3:7 If I'm understanding it correctly.. Thanks |

2 | symbolic/literal scriptures? | Jer 32:35 | Beja | 227532 | ||
Julia, Absolutely. I think those are fine examples of passages where there was full intent that the words be taken literally. In addition, you'll neve reach a point where it is all just obvious. You will have some passages which are obviously literal and you will have some that are obviously symbolic. However, there will always be some that we must work hard in order to see how the author intended his words to be understood. Though God's word is worth such diligent study. And my God cause you to prosper in knowing His word and may you be diligent to grow in it. Let nobody despise the day of small things, though let us not be content to stay there. In Christ, Beja |
