Bible Note: Greetings Doc! Excellent point my friend! So few people seem to understand what 'taking something literally' actually means. It simply means to take it in the way that it was intended by the author. Hyperbole is hyperbole. Narrative is narrative. Prophesy is prophesy. It seems to me that the reason most do not want to take the Bible 'literally' is so that they can twist the clear words of Scripture so that they mean what they want them to mean. :-( Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
