“Is there an answer for this? — Allen Desome, Washington, D.C. ”

A good example of someone who wants someone to justify what he was taught, instead of seeking truth from Scripture.

He has outsourced his mind instead of obeying the command of God to “study to show yourself approved, a workman who rightly handles the Word of Truth.”

What we have in such attestations is the application of a metaphor. Scripture, like any lengthy document uses many metaphors, similes and analogies. Such things can be true in different ways.

Ironical how Catholicism can attribute to "metaphor", "similes" and "analogies" certain things but then NOT be able to do so on others (i.e., "this is my body/blood").
