The Parables of Jesus

Life of Christ, Topical Studies

Our Savior, the Lord Jesus, was the greatest Teacher who ever lived. Even unbelieving Jews recognized that “No man ever spoke like this Man!” One of the tools that Jesus used in teaching was parables, which are typically defined as stories or situations from daily life used to illustrate a spiritual truth. In this series of lessons, we study Jesus’ use of parables, looking at how and why Jesus used parables, as well as examining many of the major parables recorded in the synoptic gospels.

These Bible lessons were taught by Pastor Gregg Bing in 2022 during the adult Sunday school class at Grace Bible Church in Fort Worth, TX.

Israel's Response to the King - 3

The Parables of Jesus

Part 4 - "Israel's Response to the King - 3" (Matthew 11:20-30) - We continue looking at Israel's response to their King, the Lord Jesus. Jesus rebukes the Galilean cities where He performed most of His mighty works. He then acknowledges that God has hidden kingdom truths from those who think themselves to be wise and prudent (those and revealed them to babes, those open to hear and believe them. Finally, Jesus invites all who labor and toil to the point of weariness under the heavy burden of trying to keep the law and the traditions imposed on them by their religious rulers, assuring them that He will provide rest for their souls.
