Why does Jesus speak in parables? Why doesn't He speak plainly concerning the things concerning salvation. Who is He speaking too?
While serving in the military, certain were chosen to go out on recon mission's, discovering the places of the enemy, determined to find out there size, their weaknesses. Even so those who were involved knew the consequences of revealing those things that concern the welfare of our fellow brother and sisters. That moving upon the enemy would require a grace that would involve warfare , a warfare we would prefer, without firing a shot.
These were the conditions, we found ourselves in.
Provocation almost always would lead into a fight that would leave many hurt, and killed!
The art of warfare is left to those who know! Those who have experienced the effects of such warfare!
Jesus spoke in parables so we might see, and understand in a way that allows freedom according to our faith. Our faith in life, a faith allowing the Holy Spirit to guide and direct into those things that concern the spiritual warfare that is before us. Saving souls from hell and death, that is sure to come upon those who do not believe the things of salvation.
This is in a sense the "recon sense" we need to fight the enemy. The spiritual direction in knowing what to say and when to say it! This is what grace is! The grace we need to fight against the spiritual darkness, who's mission is to destroy the truth concerning Christ and His redemption for mankind!
Parables are Gods way of revealing the truths, while the enemy looks on in dismay! The enemy cannot stand the Holy Spirit, He has no weapon against it! He cannot fight against it, without revealing his position!
