So, true or false, evangelicals interpret every line of Scripture literally...?

False. Context of scripture determines literal, figurative or allegorical interpretation. Scripture interprets scripture, an understanding that contradicts another passage elsewhere in the Bible is not correct.

The only scripture that Evangelicals don’t interpret literally is “If you don’t eat my body and drink my blood you have no life in you”!! Every other thing in the Bible is to be taken literally! LOL.
