<<@KoaLetedara says : so Jesus died on the cross not a symbol of atonement for sin but only guilt in the eyes of the chief priest?? and you are symbol of false teacher.>> <<@tegimr says : Is it overly poetic to trust God with my giants? No. I think she's telling what she's heard without understanding what was said. It would be wrong to allegorize those passages, but it is not wrong to apply them.>> <<@JESUS-IS-GOD316 says : But It is truešŸ˜‚ā¤I might be little but God will use me too. We can take them as literal but what we learn from them is what letā€™s me know that if God used David,He can use me too>> <<@UnyimeFrankal says : Num 22:18 KJV And Balaam answered and said unto the servants of Balak, If Balak would give me his house full of silver and gold, I cannot go beyond the word of the LORD my God, to do less or more. Let's not Go beyond God's word to avoid trouble for we will be judged based on every word we say and everything we do.>> <<@UnyimeFrankal says : The bible is a complete book that has an answer to all the questions in your heart. It is God's word and God's word are living. 1 verse of the bible can mean 1 million different things based on your level of understanding and the situation that needs the word.>> <<@UnyimeFrankal says : All scriptures are written by the inspiration of the Holy spirit. When Jesus was leaving the earth, He said he will send us a Comforter who will teach us ALL THINGS which includes reading God's word and having understanding and insights.>> <<@dalex60 says : I wish Christians would spend more time reading the 112 scriptures condemning shameless hypocrisy as sinā€¦>> <<@anguschiggins2161 says : "Actual events" šŸ˜‰>> <<@mikeroseisraw says : Well its hard to find a sermon that doesn't do this>> <<@Native2087 says : I think I have to disagree. Jesus used all kinds of hyperbolic language, metaphors and symbolism to describe his role as the Son, his relationship with the father and our inheritance. and duty. Jesus would use the seemingly mundane or ordinary cultural practices to drive home crucial biblical truths. So while I understand your point, we donā€™t want to become overly poetic when viewing these passages, they can serve as both history and more.>> <<@miguelm6687 says : My pastor and I are led by Holy Spirit. If Holy Spirit ministers to my pastor to use a true historical event in the Bible as a metaphor and encouragement, so be it. All the miraculous events could inspire you to trust in him more. Ephesians 3:20>> <<@irod1971 says : Jesus rebuked the storm and we know that it as a demonic force because he rebuked it. You lady need a few metaphors in your life>> <<@paulk9188 says : Incorrect, the stories were passed down not just for historical context, but for application to daily life. Unsubscribed>> <<@CoinHunter_zw says : Respect>> <<@Patrick1991InChrist says : This is why women shouldnā€™t preach>> <<@christopherj9744 says : ā°ļøšŸ¤” Hey Friends šŸ¤”ā°ļø Many are missing the point here. Encouraging focus on correct interpretation and the primary meaning. Yes you can apply these metaphorically BUT... With caution. The warning is valid. Scripture has specific primary purposes, meanings & literally styles. Proper respect & interpretation is the intent. We live very much in an age where the Gospel is twisted by scholars, teachers and lay people constantly. Sometimes this is intentional sometimes naively. The Gospel and nature of God loses power & depth when it's altered into a message focused on us for our service, instead of focusing on God and our loving gratitude & service to Him for his mercy & love.>> <<@kellyrichards4564 says : Disagree. Yes these are actual events that took place BUT we can use these to help us to keep Jesus at the front of our thoughts when we do have to face our Goliaths. These have resonated with me to help me to understand the scripture more knowing keep your eyes on Jesus and you will make it through the storm. Its events that happened thousands of years ago that are still relevant today!>> <<@shanehall8447 says : I thought the Bible contained a living word and that the Soirit of God could use things that happened in the Bible to minister, teach, and instruct us today as well as comfort, edify, strengthen, and encourage.>> <<@NethsaraPc says : So those creatures are real ? That dragons ?>> <<@davidbermudez7704 says : The Word of God can be used spiritually for the born again Christian. Like when Jesus calmed the storm and said ā€œOh you of little faith, why do you doubt?ā€ He was teaching the disciples on faith!>> <<@rodwolfe4308 says : Oh you mean the Joel Osteen verbal diarrhea special.>> <<@Coach.Lewi.1979 says : I understand what you're talking about here. These are actual events but also can be used shiw people he cares for your situation>> <<@mebsteve47 says : Jesus is the Word, the Light, the Bread, the curtain torn, the water that cleanses, the corner stone, the tabernacle of God.>> <<@revjosh77 says : Youā€™ve got a lot to learn about the heart of God and how you apply the word of God>> <<@christianthomas9269 says : It's amazing, bc Peter asked "do you care?" After Jesus stilled the storm he knew Jesus cared. Thus he wrote in his epistle "casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you". He not only learned He was God, but learned that He cares for him in that moment. Which was a fantastic lesson for anyone to take from the story.>> <<@christianthomas9269 says : There are literal examples of scriptures where people use the scriptures as an example of what to do or not to do in life, or what God will do etc (example the whole book of Jude). To approach the scripture in a context way "alone" will leave out much of the "spirit" of the scripture that is able to change our lives. Yes the historical context is truth, yes we should look at the context to rightfully divide it, yes it is also for our example to build our faith. After all, God allowed them for the end time churches example>> <<@Onelove-Oneheart-h4c says : You swung the pendulum to the opposite extreeme. There is always a yin and yang in literal and metaphorical. Galatians 4:24. ā€œWhich things are an allegory..." 1 Corinthians 10:2 " In the cloud and in the sea, all of them were baptized as followers of Moses. 2 They went through the waters, in a baptism like ours...">> <<@JeffreyJ.Williams-s1g says : Are you sure your saved mam?>> <<@pmpcvii says : I get what youā€™re trying to say here, but Iā€™ve always been taught there is one interpretation and multiple applications. In essence, yes these are historical events, but it is also a testimony to Godā€™s character, love and power towards us. Best to teach the scripture correctly and let the Holy Spirit do the comforting, convincing. On the opposite end, I could also see how this could give someone a misrepresentation of God, but again, slippery slope here I think and we just need to be careful interpreting the text, period.>> <<@GodBlessYourSoul777 says : I was going to listen to this, but then I remembered 1 Timothy 2:11-14>> <<@jessemitchem3880 says : This woman is 100% wrong. The entire Bible is about Jesus, and we are to act like him. She does not seem qualified to be on this channel.>> <<@ReasonsForOurFaithMinistries says : No they arenā€™t metaphors but in Godā€˜s great wisdom, they are actual events and actual metaphors that you can apply in different areas of your life like yes the great flood happened. Noah is real but also in that story Jesus is the ark thereā€™s one door Jesus is that door the flood is Godā€˜s wrath, if youā€™re abide in Jesus, youā€™ll be safe from Gods wrath>> <<@theairsoftcorps says : Why canā€™t it be both? It seems David facing Goliath is a lesson about faith in what God can do through you as well.>> <<@dnldquire says : No one said it was only an analogy. There's nothing wrong with knowing it was a literal event and still creating an analogy.>> <<@senorsenior9546 says : Sometimes they don't read enough. Like the people who use the story of the woman who was caught in adultery and Jesus said, "Let him without sin cast the first stone." They use it to illustrate their belief that Jesus didn't judge people or hold them accountable for their sins. They leave out the part where Christ said, "Go and sin no more.">> <<@donn07 says : I'm SHOCKED to see this woman in Dr Frank turek's you tube channel who contradicts herself and is CLEARLY wrong šŸ˜¬>> <<@donn07 says : Then explain to us why Paul HIMSELF used metaphors of the stories in the old testament šŸ¤¦>> <<@XRIOKX says : and thats why women should not preach šŸ™ˆ>> <<@CaptainFantastic222 says : Who gets to decide what is literal in the Bible and what is metaphor?>> <<@e.l.243 says : Amen>> <<@jasonmason6909 says : That is true those accounts mean what they mean!!! But the application of these scriptures absolutely say that God will hep us overcome our giantsā€¦. Understand the context then apply it to our livesā€¦.. this lady is out of bounds Thumbs down for the ladyā€™s view on scripture>> <<@black-cross says : E.G. Jordan B Peterson>> <<@thejoosisloos says : When Abraham went to sacrifice Isaac, it wasnā€™t referring to anything else in the Bible, it was just an eventā€¦ šŸ¤”>> <<@phunkyjunkee says : The disciples were struggling with the duality of Jesus. That yes He was a man but He was also fully God. Furthermoreā€¦ in hindsight, as we have the scriptures laid out for us todayā€¦ we can look upon it as a whole and find metaphorical connections that maybe arenā€™t there - or maybe they are. The ark, for instance, is a symbol of the safety we have in Jesus from death. All were welcome, many were calledā€¦ and eventually God shut and sealed the door and if you werenā€™t on the ark you perished. And the apostles eluded to these things as wellā€¦ like when Matthew says ā€œjust as Jonah was 3 days and nights in the belly of a great fish, so will the Son of Man be 3 days and nights in the heart of the earthā€ Iā€™ve never given a thumbs down on this channel beforeā€¦ this is a first.>> <<@jonathanteoh5759 says : I dont think many of the comments understand the implications if the interpreter allegorises any portions of the text. If every text can be allegorize, then how would we know what is true and what is false? It's just a matter of personal preference at that point. Hence, we tie the meaning of the text to the authorial intent, eliminating any allegories.>> <<@GSpotter63 says : This women is correct....The only true and accurate meaning for any writing is the one intended by the author not the false narratives applied to it by others.>> <<@Jay-R267 says : You got this 1 absolutely wrong. But we human and we learn and improve.>> <<@joseotoya2102 says : Spot on CE. Stick with the true meaning of the text. šŸ‘>> <<@John14Verse6 says : A woman teaching in the church though?>> <<@Deagle-lj7tv says : What's wrong with using actual events as a metaphor for life? I don't see anything wrong with that, it can be helpful>>
