A Simple Overview of Revelation

Jesus is a door
literal = he is made of wood ; has grains and a knob :)
allegory ; like a door opens the way ; Jesus does this for mankind
:) now make your judgements

It is truly amazing when Christians are unwilling to admit that the Bible is full of figures of speech and at the same time it must be read, studied, and applied in its plain literal sense under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. So I've made my judgment.

And Jesus is not "a door", but "THE DOOR". Big difference. And that is because He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and no man comes to the Father except in, through, and by Him. Jesus compares Himself to many things, and we need to understand their spiritual significance.

When a guy labels LITERAL VISIONS as "symbolic visions" you know he is TOTALLY OFF BASE.

No....the symbols represent literal things

 

[Enoch111]

No....the symbols represent literal things

But the visions were LITERAL VISIONS not fantasy.

LOL , I think I have seen this argument before ..on literal v spiritual.

Yet it is mostly both, not either v or.
