“Give me the indication in the texts that when God tells us that His Bride will return with Him on white horses we are not to take that literally.
I'll need the Scripture that you have that tells you that God doesn't mean that literally.

As for the image of the sword coming from Jesus’ mouth, when we go to Ephesians 6:17, we get a definition of what God considers the sword to be:....”

Why would you consider the horses (and stables for them and maybe someone to clean the stables...all this in heaven!) literal but that sword not?

You made the assertion of literalness, it's really up to you to show why. Making a statement and then demanding others disprove it is a no-no.

What would make you believe that Jesus would have a literal sword coming out of His mouth? And what on earth makes you think anything needs to be cleaned in Heaven? Where, if at all, did you get your Bible instruction?

Actually, you expressed doubt about part of the Word of God and it is up to you to prove that your doubt is well-founded. The fact that I shot down that doubt and proved, once again, that the Scripture as God wrote it is inerrant and absolutely true and proved your doubt to be completely without merit puts no obligation on me at all.

If you want to show that God's word has contradictions and errors and cannot be trusted, it's up to you to prove your point.

I already proved mine.
