Pastor Peter speaks from Mark 4:11, “To you it has been given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to those who are outside, all things come in parables.” He uses several practical examples of the power of parables and the brilliance of Jesus in conveying truth to vast numbers of people through each one. Jesus set an example we can all follow – He loved people enough to find ways to penetrate their hearts with the truth. Each person mattered to Him – even the Pharisees who persecuted Him – and He found a way to convey truth to them through parables that helped bring them to salvation. The mystery of the Kingdom of God is that there will always be more to know about Father God. While we won’t achieve perfection in this life, we can be “men and women after God’s own heart.” (1 Samuel 13:14)
