Is the bible in many cases openended?Does it purposely leave room for multiple applications?Is there good theological ground for this?

I think I have an opinion on this but can you provide examples of what you mean?

Blessings

There are so many examples I'm thinking of that I'm finding it difficult to list just one that would highlight what I'm seeing.

When Jesus fed the five thousand afterward he had them gather up the scraps that nothing be lost.This can mean any number of things.Jesus even reminded his disciples of this in Mark chp 8 vs 17-21 and he ended this by saying do you still not understand?

Even that question is open ended.In other words it does not necessarily ask what is implied.It is not an absolute.

I FIND THAT RAY SAYS SOMETHING THAT IS TRUE OF THE BIBLE;THAT IS THE BIBLE DOESN'T ALWAYS MEAN WHAT IT SAYS,YET IT ALWAYS MEANS WHAT IT MEANS.

It is a magnificent book,that is most definitely alive and breathing.
