lesson 19~ Jesus teaches the people with Parables

Mat. 4:12/Mark 1:1-15/Luke 4:14-15/John 4:46-54

Jesus went about teaching the people with parables. Parables are stories using things on earth that we can see, touch, hear, and taste, and putting them with lessons of things that you can not see, touch, hear or taste because they are spiritual. You can read many of these stores and his lessons in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.

When Jesus' followers asked why he taught in parables, he explained that it was so that those who really didn't want to learn and understand spiritual things would not do so.
