Re: Can the Bible be Figurative?
If there wasnt a literal fall, in a literal place, by a literal man. Then what fall are we talking about? Jesus shouldnt even have a reason to save mankind. Sin is the reason why we see death, bloodshed, disease and a cursed world. Before this, God made a perfect world. Gods plan is to save mankind from the judgement on sin through Christ. Now Jar you tell me if this isnt an important aspect of the faith?
