QUOTE: Is Cooper speaking specifically of Apocryphal Scripture? Or is that a more general principle?

All scripture.

Apocryphal Scripture is not like regular Scripture. It is a specific style characterized by highly figurative language. Revelation is Apocryphal. We can see from the parts that have already been fulfilled just how figurative it is. As I said before, there would be no consistency in suggesting that the unfulfilled parts will be more literal in their fulfillment than the fulfilled parts. The entire book is Apocryphal. Meaning, every word is true, but not every image is literal.
