“Why speakest - thou - unto them in parables?”

Why speakest – thouunto them in parables?

 

 

 

 

 

Jesus Christ preached the Good News of the coming Kingdom of God to tens of thousands and yet at that first Pentecost after Christ’s death and Resurrection there were only 120 disciples.

What happens to the tens of thousands that personally heard Christ — to whom — it is not given?

10  And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables?

11  He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, —– but to them it isnotgiven.

12  For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath.

 13  Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.

14  And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:

15  For this people’s heart is waxed gross, and [their] ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with [their] eyes, and hear with [their] ears, and should understand with [their] heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.

16  But blessed [are] your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.

17  For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous [men] have desired to see [those things] which ye see, and have not seen [them]; and to hear [those things] which ye hear, and have not heard [them].

The rapture folks and those that believe this is the only day for salvation:

                                are  preaching

“Accept Christ now or you are lost forever”,

“Sign up for the rapture or you will be left behind”.

So;if we can be lost forever or left behind can anyone then explain, using their main stream doctrines, what happened the tens of thousands in the time of Jesus Christ to whom “IT WAS NOT GIVEN”  to understand?

Jesus Christ clearly states here in Matthew 13 He did not want the tens of thousands to have an opportunity for salvation.

Are those tens of thousands lost forever?

Isn’t Jesus Christ and the Father desperately trying to save the whole world?

If you can not explain what is occurring using your “learned” church doctrines what does that say about what you have been taught?

      deathseeker…”the mysteries of the kingdom of HEAVEN, —– but to them it is — not — given”…..CORRECT O Mundo, the reason you ask is WHY?

      THAT’S written further down :roll: 15 “For this people’s heart is waxed gross, and [their] ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with [their] eyes, and hear with [their] ears, and should understand with [their] heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.”….. :roll:

      They were mostly there for the free food and miracles NO FAITH and HE KNEW IT as HE sees inside Men’s Hearts like Yours (waxed gross) which is FAR from Him or you would recognize the NEW Covenant is FAR Superior to the OLD (and their eyes they have closed) , You just give Lip service to Y’shua that’s all yada yada Jesus this Jesus that but you will NOT NOT NOT accept the TRUTH that the TRUTH is “‘GOD the HOLY SPIRIT” IN YOUR HEART which would save /heal you…So be it !! and all this disdain you have for the TRUTH (their ears are dull of hearing,) of the Church, YOUR quarreling with God who does as HE PLEASES which you DON’T SEEM TO LIKE MUCH… :shock: as you know better :?:

      Romans 9:20–21…………”As it is written”

      20 But who are you, O man, to answer back to God? Will what is molded say to its molder, “Why have you made me like this?” 21 Has the potter no right over the clay, to make out of the same lump done vessel for honorable use and another for dishonorable use?

      Jeremiah 18:1–23 The Potter and the Clay

      Isaiah 45:9
      “Woe to those who quarrel with their Maker, those who are nothing but potsherds among the potsherds on the ground. Does the clay say to the potter, ‘What are you making?’ Does your work say, ‘The potter has no hands’?”

      “Isn’t Jesus Christ and the Father desperately trying to save the whole world?”

      Yes!!! of course ALL MEN are told/called to repentance to be saved, BUT HE Knew that Multitudes have a Heart Condition (waxed gross) and are unreachable as He say’s in verse 15 and many other places throughout Scripture they LOVED DARKNESS…..”Are those tens of thousands lost forever?” YOU ASK :arrow: MOST likely BILLIONS ARE and your included IF you don’t wake UP.

      “You rapture folks and you that believe this is the only day for salvation:” Not trueseeker your lying again: you can become a Tribb Saint when you’ll understand AFTER the Rapture to Heaven of His Very Special People and THEN YOU DIE as a witness for refusing the MARK OF THE BEAST showing your faith to Y’shua by doing so, you then will be resurrected @return and be tested again in the 1000 year rule of Christ on Earth a Mortal Revelation 20:4(“they came to life”NOT ETERNAL LIFE) , as THEY failed FAITH the 1st time for Immortality UNLIKE the Bride who gets Immortality @ the APPEARING….Immortals don’t live with Mortals during the 1000 yr reign on Earth as I stated they are going to HEAVEN :grin:

      “Accept Christ now or you are lost forever”, :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: No one ever said that tut tut!!

      “Sign up for the rapture or you will be left behind”. Yep!! the Foolish are left behind …Matt 25

      • Truthseeker

        WOW crazy so your god is so weak he can only save a few — so sad, billions are lost because they will not sign up for the satanic rapture. LOL

        Are you stating for the record that God the Father lost all of those during the time of Christ except the 120 and then the 3000?

        How about the millions in the time of Noah?

        So is it the 10% of the 100 billion that have lived and died up to this time that are saved and the rest are tormented for all eternity because the refuse to sign up?

        Crazy I totally reject the god you preach — for ever — and i refuse to sign up for the satanic rapture.

        • Crazy times

          AGAIN FACTSDON’TMATTERTOseeker only your ramblings of dishonesty twisting what the Bible says and what I say I mean :twisted: .

          ALL these contradictions are ALL YOURS ALONE

          “so sad, billions are lost because they will not sign up for the satanic rapture. LOL”"Are you stating for the record that God the Father lost all of those during the time of Christ except the 120 and then the 3000?”

          Your trying to put words in my mouth about YOUR UNDERSTANDINGS give it up Mr Goat as your really not fit to handle the TRUTH which would save you, MANY are called ONLY a FEW CHOSEN.. a FACT

          Matthew 22:14 For many are called, but few are chosen.” YOUR GRIPE IS AGAINST GOD, NOT ME

          • Truthseeker

            crazy few are chosen for the first harvest, there are two harvests in Jerusalem each year.

            the harvest of the first fruits in the spring (the barley harvest) from Passover to Pentecost and the large fall harvest (the Wheat) just before the Feast of Tabernacles.

            Every person ever conceived will have an opportunity to be in the Family of God, that means even those aborted will have a life time thus an opportunity for eternal life.

            The reason you do not understand: you do not keep the 7 annual Holy Feast of the Lord as did Jesus Christ and all the early Christians.

            the 7 Feasts lay out for God’s Chosen the major events in the Plan of Salvation.

            Read Revelation 20: 1 -6 There is the first resurrection of the first fruits at the Last Trump and then after the 1000 years the 2nd resurrection of all those that never had their one chance.

            It may well be crazy, you will come up in the 2nd resurrection and at that time the earth will be again the Garden of Eden , it will be a paradise. I will come to welcome you.
