A Parable for ..ALL.. mankind- but who will SEE Yeshua spoke ..only.. in parables when talking with the masses, All these things spake Yeshua unto the multitude in Parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them Parables are Spiritual A parable is a story… that contains in figurative or symbolic language- a higher moral or spiritual truth Parables are Higher, Spiritual, Glorious teachings of Eternal things Literally they are of little consequence; Spiritually they are of enormous consequence But without knowing what the symbols represent in a parable, no one could ever understand the higher meaning Therefore the multitudes of people did not understand the teachings of Yeshua, because he did not explain the meaning of the symbols to the masses, only to his disciples in private Some parables require only a little spiritual understanding Example: The Parable of a Beam in One’s Eye There are few believers who would not understand the meaning of this parable, although they might not practice its teaching Others, such as The Parable of the Prodigal Son requires much more spiritual understanding, as there are many more spiritual truths within this story Many Christians can only understand parables that require very little spiritual understanding When reading the deeper parables, they can not comprehend- the higher meaning which is totally missed, and/or not believed A simple example: Another parable spoke He unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened Yeshua didn’t explain this parable, So what does it mean? Most, people certainly understand, that leaven (like yeast) put into dough will cause the dough to rise through fermentation But what is the spiritual application of this parable? Know ye not that a little leaven leavens the whole lump But who believes this parable? According to Yeshua, the kingdom of God is like this parable of the leaven and the lump The kingdom of God moves and works throughout the entirety of the universe until the ..whole.. of God’s creation is brought under its influence But who believes it? The time comes when Yeshua will turn over the kingdom of God to his Father: Then comes the end, when he (Yeshua) shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he (Yeshua) shall have put down all rule and all authority and power that God may be all in all Then the whole lump will be leavened with God!! Everyone—ALL This parable is not literal The kingdom of God is not literally leaven in a lump of dough!! These teachings are Spiritual They teach great Spiritual Truths!! Every parable teaches a spiritual truth If you do not understand the parable of the leaven and the dough- you do not understand the gospel!! Because the leaven in the dough is like the kingdom of God and Yeshua came preaching the Gospel of the Kingdom of God You see... if the leaven does ..not.. leaven the whole lump, then it is ..not.. like the kingdom of God Anything that does not involve the whole (everyone) cannot be like the kingdom of God For anything to be like the kingdom of God... it must involve the whole, the ALL, everyone, ALL mankind Therefore Yeshua said... The kingdom of God is like leaven that leavens the whole lump!!
