There is a distinction between the word of God and the trope in which is related to it.



By Gman4326

Man can know that God has spoken in times past because of the written word (Hebrews 1:1-3). Function of the Sacred Scriptures is that GOD and the Father, Jesus, and Holy Spirit is sovereign, man is rebellious (Genesis chapter 3 and 4), Lord has the freedom to save and man does not. The word itself was revealed by God the Father (Genesis 1; Exodus 3), God the Son fulfills the gospel (Matthew 5:17) and the Holy Spirit indwells the believer (1 Corinthians 6:19-20).

So when someone reads the scriptures they get to know what God has said on a subject whether be on history, grace, salvation, government, or on economics. When you read someone’s commentary on the bible it is one opinion on what the Great Governor has spoken. Same with trope in the form of drama, play, game and even on artwork it is a mere imitation of the real thing.

When I wrote on the defense of biblical symbolism and imagery this is what I had in mind. To hold every captive thought to the word of GOD means we must interpret within the framework set by GOD alone (2 Corinthians 10:5).    

My finishing thought to you that Worldview does in fact matters.
