Bible Note: Dear Aaron, I'd disagree with your statement, "The scriptures are an allegory for our example and admonition." First, what scripture explicitly tells us this? In other words, what is the BASIS for your position? One can look at anything a certain way- even the Bible. It doesn't mean it's the right way or correct! Second, the statement doesn't mesh well with Heb. 4:12: "For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart." If scripture is simply allegory, how do we know this to be true? Why wouldn't we take it a literal- like any other piece of literature- unless evidence dictates otherwise? It would be very helpful for your to share a bit more about yourself and exactly where you are coming from theologically. You are still far from being clear my friend!
