Why Jesus Speaks in Parables (Matthew  

Pastor Daniel is God sent. I feel the Lord speak to me through his sermons. Thank you Pastor Daniel and Crossroads for always keeping me close to the word. I love sharing Pastor Daniel's sermons!😁

30:45 I can relate a lot to this. It took me desiring an understanding of the scripture to actually open myself to it. I never began to understand what I was reading until I actually wanted an understanding. I never claim to know the originally intended meaning of any piece of scripture, however, I will never deny the influence what I have read has had upon my life & personality as a whole. Also, I want to thank Pastor Daniel for this video. It was a very informative & entertaining lecture that I do not regret watching.

Thank you...GOD is good

I love how you explained this!!!! Much love from Baltimore!

If you want to undetstand Isaiah's prophecy. Look into the feast day of Yom Kippur. Attoinment. Then... You will have eyes to see and ears to hear. I love how you explain that by doing God's will living it much will be given. The feasts of God do the same. Whrn you do them He reveals so mich of Himself. Rico cortes has some really good video's on temple service of the feasts. Look into it, I think with your gift you can reveal much to the body. Hope this blesses you. Shalom brother.

Where can I find a pastor like this in Ohio? How do I go about finding someone to teach me the bible? I was raised Catholic and never tought the bible. They just repeat a few choice verses for each Holiday.

You should read John 14 vs 5 to 9

Because only a few has been given to understand the secrets of the kingdom, but it has not been given to the church. The church certainly hear the word of God, but the church still live and think according to the false teachings of religious teachers. Their consciousness is unknowing and empty, therefore the church must first learn to live and think. What would be better to make the church come alive and think, if not through speaking in parables?

19:50

Matt. 13 is not a parable as we understand the word today. It is not just a symbolic story told to teach a literal lesson. Matt. 13 is a factual story about the reality of our world and the people in it. Jesus speaks of a group of people who heard Him speaking to His disciples and says that He had no intention of them understanding what He was talking about in Matt. 13:15. He even says IF HE HAD preached the truth to them clearly, they would then see, hear, understand and be converted and He would THEN have to HEAL THEM. The reason Jesus did not want to heal, or save, these people is explained in Matt. 13:38. They are Tares. They are children of the devil. If this was not a literal fact, Jesus would not blatantly avoid them hearing His preaching. If it was simply a question of these people not yet being believers, or not YET being called, He would preach the truth for them to hear. The fact is that these people were, and are, fundamentally different than other people. They are Tares, and they are very different than the Wheat. Though they may look very much the same, and may even profess Christianity, they are not at all the same, and cannot ever be Christians. Why did God HATE Esau from the womb? Because Esau was a Tare. Why did Jesus have no desire to heal and save these people in Matt. 13:10-15? The answer is found in the rest of that chapter - because they were Tares.

interesting

This is what Jesus told John his belovered apostle,That statue you see of mother and child those are the first humans God made by voice and Yahwehs father Yaldaboath he saw what God made by voice and he made a copy out of clay Adam and Eve.Thats the knowledge of heaven.According to John Jesus didnt die on no cross he just said im going and he was gone.
