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.

Part 8 - "Israel's Response to the King - 7" (Matthew 12:43-50, 13:1-3,10) - We conclude our look at Israel's response to their King, the Lord Jesus. It was evident that the Jewish rulers had rejected Jesus as their Messiah and King, but Jesus gave an illustration showing the nature of that entire generations of Jews, that they were wicked and adulterous and had also rejected Him (vs. 43-35). Jesus then pointed out to the people that His true family were those who heard and were obedient to the Word of God. This moves us on the Matthew 13, where Jesus begins to speak to the multitudes in parables, where we briefly reviewed the key questions that need to be answered to understand the parables in this chapter.
