About this episode

Luke Cornelius discusses Jesus' use of parables to reveal the kingdom's secrets to the humble and the implications of rejection in God's saving purposes.

Luke Cornelius - Jesus explains why he begins teaching in parables: to reveal the kingdom's secrets to humble hearts while sealing them from the proud.
