First of all, it isn't my "personal interpretation" The charge of "narrow interpretation" is called "orthodoxy" and has been held faithfully by believers for thousands of years. Materialism is a late comer, and if you cared to explore the origins of syncretizing the death cult of atheistic materialism into corrupting the ageless Word, then you would discover that there is no basis in fact to support your "personal interpretation". FUrthermore your opinions are in contradiction to the prophets and the apostles who refered to Genesis 1-11 as true history not some insipid uninterpretable poetry.
Jesus Christ is the 2nd Adam, which means that there is 1st Adam. The whole concept of sin nature begins with the Fall. Since you reject the Fall, then you must deny the doctrine of Original Sin. Denying the doctrine of Original Sin means that you deny the doctrine of Subsitution. To deny the doctrine of Substitution, you have no mechanism to be redeemed. If you have no redemption, then you are damned.
Basically you have a religion where you reject all of the doctrines and live off the warm fuzzies of emotionalism. I don't get it. How can you be ashamed of the gospel, call Jesus Christ a liar, and assume that you are saved?
Do I sound peeved? I hope so. The major doctrines of Scripture are presented in the first eleven chapters of Genesis. The whole foundation of Christianity begins right there. When someone comes up and says that Genesis 1-11 is bogus, is a metaphor (of what, we all wonder), is fiction, or something that can mean anything to anybody (the opposite of "narrow interpretation") then it shows a remarkable arrogance and indifference to the revelation of the Almighty. The Apostle Peter also was peeved, and declared scoffers who prefer "broad interpretations" as "willfully ignorant". I stand in good company.
Jusus Christ is God. Adam is the Most Ancient Church. Flip foward to Genesis 12 - Abram represents the Lord in his nativity and boyhood.
As stated elsewhere on this thread, Genisis 1-11 is pre-history in style. The internal meaning is for US - OUR repentance, reformation and the states of the Most Ancient (Adam) and Ancient (Noah) Churches on earth.
Genesis 1-11 was past down as a true fable by word of mouth and it has infinite hidden meaning in Heaven.
