We would be assholes to disagree with you if you said, "This passage of The Bible means this to me." of course it does. It's when someone starts saying to us "this is what this passage means" that we start to argue differently. That's the point of imagery. To put you in the mindset of the artist. Being moved emotionally by the artwork is just a bonus. When a composer writes a march he inspires you to march not lifts your soul.
When you see a McDonalds commercial you're inspired to eat greasy food not experiencing a life changing moment. So do your thing girl and I'll try to be less of a smartass in the future.
