you speak truth and gibberish at the same time. where did you get this"They should not tell God that they already understand the parables" where did i write about this, as for the parables i certainly know the verses you mentioned, they point to Christ as man pther texts from the old testament.

as fos believing, of course I do believe in christ and always will you dont need to force me, not should you.

no one knows the meaning of parables? Jesus explained himself a few of them so we can all understand, did you know this???

This is where I read it.
what is it about parables, I know what they are and why Jesus spoke so. Are you trying to say I cannot understand them? parables seem to be a constant theme in many of your posts.

To those who are spiritual and humble themselves before God, the truth is revealed and understood. But to those who are natural, relying on their own understanding and emotions in matters concerning the Word of God, the truth is regarded as foolishness.
Because they have been deceived by devil.
1 CORINTHIANS 2:`14
14 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.
 
You previously asked for evidence. Here is clear evidence. You do not know the neighbors referred to in Mark 12:31. Those chosen by the Lord Jesus knew who their neighbors were, and they proclaimed their identity so that they could be loved. Your failure to answer demonstrates that you do not know them. For if you knew them, you would follow the example of those chosen by God, who made them known. This is the Lord's command. Yet your refusal to answer, and your insistence that you should not answer, serves as evidence that you are not of God.
Your baseless opinions are not evidence.
 
With every word you speak, the Lord Jesus exposes who you are and what you truly are.
1 JOHN 4:20
20 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?
Telling you unpleasant truth about yourself is not hatred.
 
When the Lord Jesus speaks the truth, those who are not of God are insulted and offended by it.
Thus, without being aware of it, they forsake the Lord Jesus
JOHN 6:53, 60 & 66
53 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.
60 Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it?
66 From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.
More irrelevant blather from you.

Here's the problem with your non-logic:

YOU DO NOT KNOW ME.

You know almost nothing about me. You know nothing of my relationship with the Lord. All you know is what I write here, and not answering your silly questions certainly tells you nothing of consequence except perhaps that I have little patience for stupid, but you should already know that.

You pretend that your ignorance regarding me is evidence for something that you invented. You pretend to understand Scripture but reject what is plain in favour of your own alleged "revelations"... just like Joseph Smith and Mary Baker Eddy. While you occasionally display limited understanding, you continue to dismiss everything you are told by people who actually have a relationship with the Father through Jesus... that is evidence against you.

When you stop pretending that you know enough about me to pass any kind of judgment, your questions might be worth answering.

Maybe...

but I'm not holding my breath on that. You're profoundly stubborn.
 
Before Jesus died and rose again, the disciples prayed directly to God the Father using Old Testament traditions. They had not yet prayed using the Authority and name of Jesus.
Why don’t you tell us what you think, since that’s why you started the thread.
Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full".
 
  • John 15:7 (KJV): "If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you."
  • The Principle: When you "abide" (stay closely connected), your desires align with His, and talking to Him becomes a natural extension of your life.
  • 1 Thessalonians 5:17 (KJV): "Pray without ceasing."
  • The Principle: Just as your lungs automatically breathe physical air to keep your body alive, a believer's spirit naturally turns to Jesus in thought, praise, and request throughout the day. It becomes your default spiritual setting.

The Lord God seeks the lost sheep; therefore, the truth that comes from God is intended for them.
JOHN 10:27
27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:

Personally, I do not really know you, and I know nothing about you. However, the Lord reveals who you are concerning spiritual matters. Through God's revelation about you, I have come to recognize you in spiritual things.

The reason God continually exposes you is that He is protecting the lost sheep so that they may return to God. This is also what the Lord Jesus did during His earthly ministry. Read Matthew chapter 23 carefully.

Just like the scribes and Pharisees, they also accused the Lord of acting as though He knew the Scriptures. This was because the Lord Jesus rebuked their belief in a mysterious and misunderstood concept of God.

Therefore, when God exposes error, it is not to condemn the lost sheep but to call them back to the truth and to Himself.

The multitude (the 5,000 men, excluding the children) who left the Lord in John 6:66 also brought joy to God. For through that event, the people who were not worthy to be with God in eternal life were exposed. Everything is for God's pleasure. Therefore, no human being can boast before the Lord God.
JOHN 6: 66
66 From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.

In God's exposing of a person, He does not believe what comes out of a person's mouth, but rather what is in the heart.
MATTHEW 15:8
8 This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.
