<<However, outside of those themes, there are many diferent interpetations of the Bible. There is no central viewpoint or focus.
Why is this? Is it mans failure to understand or is it the translation, or is it another reason? If you are to take the Bible literally, these are important questions.>>

IMO it is the result of pride. Many people want to feel on top and insist that their view is true. This leads many to ignore parts of scripture that would point out their error. This is why we must take all of scripture into account and let scripture interpret scripture.

The first half of your post is very encouraging to me. Don't sweat the small stuff. God loves you and has made a way for you to come home to him. Open the door wide and you will see the truth of this. We will then have eternity to debate the finer points of His revelation.

You would make a wonderful brother and I will continue to pray that God show you the truth of His Word.

In Yeshua's love for you - DLL
