No, the Scriptures were not given to us to confuse us but rather to instruct us. Certainly God intends that we should believe His Word with all simplicity. A thousand years means a thousand years; a wolf means a wolf; a lion means a lion. If you read your Bible that way, a child can understand it.
M. R. DeHaanTo come to Christ costs you nothing, to follow Christ costs you something, to serve Christ will cost you everything.
