Let me ask you this Stan. What criteria do you use to judge when something is figurative - literal - or absolute? When Christ said: Luke 23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. What did that mean? What did Jesus mean when he said this the night before: John 17:9 I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine. How do you understand these apparently contradictory statements? I ask again: What criteria do you use to judge when something is figurative - literal - or absolute?
