    How do you read the Bible?

    Which parts of the Bible are literal/historical and which parts are figurative/metaphorical? I have only read Genesis so far, and don't know much about Christianity.

    Question to Christians about Jesus' "Sinlessness"

So this is a thread to answer 'Questions' you have about God and Faith. You may get a great variety of answers. Personally...
