The Bible must be interpreted in its proper context. There are times when the context calls for a literal meaning and other times when the context is clearly figurative.Good then you can tell me where the verses i cited are contradicted in scripture.Would that be in Mark 14, Luke 22, or John 6. clearly the Catholics have a much better understanding of the literal and it is you that wants to obfuscate.

Your premise is incorrect. The verses you cited are not contradicted in scripture because scripture doesn’t contradict itself.

Instead, your understanding of Col 1:24 is not supported by the proper context. I have provided other scriptures, including Hebrews 9:12 which clearly demonstrate the sufficiency of Christ’s atonement to secure our redemption. You still haven’t supplied any explanation as to that verse; rather you have again brought up different topics like the last supper, which have nothing to do with this discussion.

Do you also believe that Christ is a wooden gate and we are literal sheep? Baaaaah.
