What are the "tales" of our...Kaor, Paul!<br /><br />What are the "tales" of our times? For many, many Christians, the Scriptures are what helps give ULTIMATE meaning to the universe. Which for a Catholic like me means the Bible is an account of God's gradual revelation of Himself to mankind, culminating with the Incarnation, Passion, and Resurrection of His Son, Jesus Christ.<br /><br />Unfortunately, some Christians, like "Evangelical" Protestants, misunderstand and misuse the Bible. Such as when they insist the Genesis creation accounts are literally historical facts. They overlook the role played by ALLEGORIES in Scripture and how what was being revealed by such means was what mattered.<br /><br />Not that the Bible, both OT and NT, doesn't have sober history in it. It does, such as the Books of Kings, the gospels, and Luke's Acts of the Apostles.<br /><br />SeanSean M. Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13973738112230622557noreply@blogger.com
