Is what a no? Is Communion to be taken as the literal eating and drinking of Christ's flesh and blood? It is a scripture that is taken literally by some. Do you take it literally? Or are some scriptures meant metaphorically?

Do you put bible verses in a box and strap them to your forehead? Some do, I do not.

This is supposed to be a dialogue. I asked you a question. You did not answer it, but instead asked me a question. If you would be so kind as to answer my question, then I will answer yours. Deal?

So here it is again:

Just so we know where you are coming from... Do you literally believe the story of Noah? Do you literally believe the story of Jonah?

After you give your answer, then I will answer your question.

Was Yeshua literally born of a virgin?
Was He literally born in Bethlehem?
Did He literally go to Egypt?
Did He literally ride into Jerusalem on the back of a donkey to proclaim Himself King?
Was He literally pierced in His hands and feet?
Did He literally rise from the dead?

If the answer to all these is yes, then what do you have against the literal interpretation of prophecy?
