They are betting that it’s all allegory

Scripture tells us that the invisible things of him are understood by the things that are made. Can you think of anything that God made and used in scripture that is not an allegory?
1 Cor 14:10 There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of them is without signification.

Can you give me the Scripture where God tells man to allegorize His Bible?

There is a difference between God and man, you know. God wrote His Bible the way He wrote it and used parables (which always symbolized something literal) on occasion.

Can you give me the Scriptural authorization by God that man is to take His Bible as anything but literal? Where do we go to find out that God tells us that we are to take it upon ourselves to change the meaning of Scripture?
