Sermon Notes
Jesus’s Rationale for Using Parables to Teach
Jesus’s rationale for using parables reveals something about what He expects of us in our relationship with Him.
Some Obvious but Challenging Things We Know from Jesus’s Explanation of Why He Used Parables
Some people will understand Jesus’s teaching about the kingdom of heaven, and some people won’t understand.
Those who understand spiritual things will grow spiritually, and those who don’t understand will regress.
Jesus used parables to conceal truth from some.
There are benefits to having a proper disposition toward God, and there are consequences to having an improper disposition.
The condition of our heart is extremely consequential.
'KNOW CHRIST AND MAKE HIM KNOWN"
