Metaphors Related to Jesus Christ
How God’s Word Interprets Itself Integrity of the Word Cinardo Home (Rutherford, NJ) Daggon, Jim 11/11/2010 11/11/2010
This teaching looks at several metaphors used for Jesus Christ in the Bible including “I am the light of the world,” “I am the bread of life,” “I am the door,” “I am the good shepherd,” “I am the vine,” and “that Rock was Christ”. God uses figures of speech in the Bible to highlight important sections for us to consider further. Understanding figures of speech in the Bible is crucial to us knowing whether something is literal or figurative. These figures of speech draw attention to Jesus Christ’s accomplishments and how his life continues to affect ours.

This teaching covers the beginning of Romans 12, which is the beginning of the practical side of Romans. God wants us to live for Him by renewing our minds to His word. This section handles thinking soberly of ourselves and the other believers. Another theme in this section is that another way we can fulfill our logical divine service to God is by believing to function as a integral member of the Body of Christ.

This teaching covers the wrath of God to the unjust in the day of God’s judgement. It also explains how they exchanged the glory of God for idols and exchanged the truth of God for a lie. They started in idolatry and ended up in homosexuality despite knowing God’s standard of justice so they were inexcusable. Then, in Chapter 3, it is covered that man’s justification was needed because none were righteous and all were guilty before God.
Idolatry, Homosexuality, Justification
