I’m saying that the face meaning of every sentence in the Bible is true, and that the only places where Christ used allegory are where he said that he did, and that his explanations to the disciples were for us, and that they are clear.
Allegory is rare in the Bible, and where it is used we are warned in the text, usually in advance.
A person of average intelligence will easily understand the Bible IF THEY WANT TO UNDERSTAND, and if they do not wish to understand, the Holy Spirit will help them become confused.
You really should have selected a better example than Nicolatians to make your point since there is a significant amount of disagreements even among the Protestants as to what the term means. None of the concordances equate the term to what you are implying (see Strong's 3531). Even the few confabulated attempts to construct an indictment of the Church do so out of whole cloth.
"A person of average intelligence will easily understand the Bible IF THEY WANT TO UNDERSTAND"
Are you asking me to believe that anyone can will themselves to believe or solve anything? That implies that if you want to believe something bad enough it becomes your truth.
Note: "Nicolaitano" is not a Greek word.
