Jesus told many things in parables. His disciples asked Him, “Why do you speak to the people in parables?”
Jesus replied,
“Because the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them. Whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them. This is why I speak to them in parables:
‘Though seeing, they do not see;
Though hearing,
They do not hear or understand.
In them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah:
You will be ever hearing
but never perceiving;
For this people’s hearts have become calloused;
They hardly hear with their ears,
And they have closed their eyes.
Otherwise, they might see with their eyes,
Hear with their ears,
Understand with their hearts and turn,
And I would heal them.’
But blessed are your eyes
Because they see,
And your ears because they hear.
For truly I tell you,
Many prophets and righteous people longed to see what you see
But did not see it,
And to hear what you hear but did not hear it.”

When God stepped into time and clothed Himself in flesh, He took the name Jesus and chose to walk among us—not as a king in a palace, but as a humble man. In a world where people chase prestige, wealth, and titles, Jesus deliberately chose the lowly path. If given the freedom today, many would pursue the most glamorous careers, the highest salaries, and the loudest applause. But the Creator of the universe, the One who spoke galaxies into being, came down and took up the trade of a carpenter.
He didn’t enroll in the great universities of men. He didn’t sit under the tutelage of the so-called wise. And yet, His words confounded the scholars. The Pharisees, proud in their learning, questioned, “How does this man know so much, having never studied?” (John 7:15). They could not comprehend that the One who authored wisdom itself stood before them.
Jesus, fully God and fully man, experienced every stage of human life—from infancy to adulthood. He learned to speak, to work, to weep, and to rejoice. No one can say, “God doesn’t understand me.” He lived it. He felt it. He walked it. And in doing so, He shattered every excuse.
He humbled Himself—not because He had to, but because He chose to. And in that humility, He spoke the language of all people, not just with words, but with compassion, with truth, and with stories that pierced the heart.
Now, about parables:
A parable is a simple story used to illustrate a moral or spiritual lesson. It’s like an earthly story with a heavenly meaning. Jesus often used parables to teach deep truths in a way that was relatable and memorable. He spoke of seeds, sheep, coins, vineyards, and weddings—everyday things that carried eternal significance
Jesus was the master of parables. In fact, the Gospels tell us that “He did not speak to them without a parable” (Matthew 13:34–35). He used them to reveal truth to those who were open-hearted, and to conceal it from those who were hardened. Parables invited listeners to lean in, to reflect, and to discover the mysteries of the Kingdom of God.

“How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers!
There will be great distress in the land
And wrath against this people…
There will be signs in the sun, moon, and starts.
On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity
At the roaring and tossing of the sea.
People will faint from terror,
Apprehensive of what is coming on the world,
For the heavenly bodies will be shaken.
At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud
With power and great glory.”
