Understanding Spiritual Truths

Matthew 13:13 

"Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not;

and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand."

    Jesus used parables because those who had rejected Jesus did not have divine enlightened minds that would enable them to perceive the given spiritual truths. There is no amount of explanation that would have made them understand these truths. "But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned," (1 Cor. 2:14).

    Nothing has changed. No one is intelligent enough to understand God's spiritual truths unless they accept Jesus Christ as their Savior. A person can watch and listen to believers that are around them with their eyes and ears, but they are not capable of understanding the truth in their own hearts. It is very simple. Those who have accepted Jesus as The True Light, which has been given will receive more light, while those who turn away from Jesus, The True Light will continue to be surrounded in darkness.

    My Friends, as believers and follows of Jesus Christ, we must let this world know that by turning away and rejecting Jesus they harden themselves against God. If you know someone that does not understand the spiritual truth of Salvation have them read the following Scriptures: "Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:  Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.  For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD."(Is. 55:6-8)

Amen!
