Why do you have the power to say what is literal and what isn't? Why do you have the power to call yourself a Christian and a follower of the Bible and obey some things and not others?
I obey the New Testament and obey the parts that the Bible says to obey. The Bible does not tell Christians to obey the Old Testament. Insisting that it does displays a great ignorance of theology that proves the person has spent next to no time reading the Bible, has probably never ever read through the book of Galatians.
