So many people take a literal interpretation of the bible. I used to. I remember that absolutely terrifying and traumatizing day when I could no longer do so. I fell down a very deep hole. Bottomless, in fact.
But that’s what happens when you choose the red pill.
People misinterpret this as a disrespect of scripture. Not so. In fact, I think it is a deeper respect of scripture to appreciate its fuller meaning, significance and authority.
I know I know. I studied the bible in order to teach it. I studied Greek, Hebrew and Aramaic so I could do it professionally and well. I was passionate about the bible. But since my departure from a literalist interpretation of it, my passion for it has dramatically increased. But not in a way that would satisfy everybody.
It’s kind of like the Sabbath: People were not made for the bible, but the bible for people.
