I attended a catholic school, though never was religious, so I've read the New Testament and studied it quite a bit, as well as bits and pieces from the Old Testament here and there. Among many, many other things i have read since then from other traditions and teachings, lol.
what is interesting is that now, since you could say this new 'experience' happened, the words of scripture feel as though they are 'bursting' out at me, as though they have an inner life. What was metaphor now seems to contain literal truth. Hard to explain. I've been reading the verses posted here, and funnily enough, the verses quoted today at the rally that RSBN was covering, people randomly quoting the same verses, lol, as well as Trump's speech today at TPUSA
maybe I should read through the entire Bible, but I don't think I'm ready to do so. It's still all a little 'scary' and I think that is okay for now.
