Understanding the Parables of Prophet Jesus Christ

UNDERSTANDING THE PARABLES OF PROPHET JESUS IN THE BRIT CHADASHAH

Shalom Gday All,

The topic I have chosen for the Bush HQ blog is Understanding the Parables of the Prophet Jesus in the NT.

The ones I’ll be covering will be will be ones Muslims seem to bring up to prove that there will be Sex in Heaven.

These are basically covered through the Marriage of the Kings Son in Matthew 22, the ten virgins in Matthew 25, the wedding feast in Luke 12.

Lets pull up the most least popular ones first in Matt 22:1-14 Marriage of the Kings Son

Mat 22:1 And Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said,

Mat 22:2 The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son.

Mat 22:3 And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come.

Mat 22:4 Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage.

Mat 22:5 But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise:

Mat 22:6 And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them.

Mat 22:7 But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city.

Mat 22:8 Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy.

Mat 22:9 Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage.

Mat 22:10 So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests.

Mat 22:11 And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment:

Mat 22:12 And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.

Mat 22:13 Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Mat 22:14 For many are called, but few are chosen.

Now remembering this is a story about the Marriage of the Kings Son in a parable which is to say it’s a Story From God from Heaven.

He is showing in these verses that God is Preparing His Son with a Bride, not brides

As Jesus tells us in Matthew 9 an also corresponding verses

Mat 9:15 And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? but the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then shall they fast.

Mar 2:19 And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? as long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.

Mar 2:20 But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days.

Luk 5:34 And he said unto them, Can ye make the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them?

Luk 5:35 But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days.

Joh 3:29 He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom's voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled.

As you notice in these Verses it doesn’t say Bridesgroom, but Bridegroom which is singular Showing that the Bridegroom doesn’t need to have sex with the 5 or 10 virgins or an orgy as Muslims say, this term is also used in matt 25 in the parable of the 10 virgins, so that would make these virgins as Servants unto the Kings Son.

As it shows ½ of the servants obeyed God, an the other ½ disobeyed an were caught up in other things.

Luk 12:31 But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you.

Luk 12:32 Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.

Luk 12:33 Sell that ye have, and give alms; provide yourselves bags which wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, neither moth corrupteth.

Luk 12:34 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

Luk 12:35 Let your loins be girded about, and your lights burning;

Luk 12:36 And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately.

Luk 12:37 Blessed are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them.

Luk 12:38 And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find them so, blessed are those servants.

Luk 12:39 And this know, that if the goodman of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house to be broken through.

Luk 12:40 Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not.

As you look to verse 36 it makes reference of the wedding which the Bridegroom will be having, an still makes reference to those servants who will be blessed, for as according to verse 31, all servants of God should be seeking Gods Kingdom for God the Father to Add unto you, now I’ll finish off with Matthew 25 on the 10 virgins.

Mat 25:1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.

Mat 25:2 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.

Mat 25:3 They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:

Mat 25:4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.

Mat 25:5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.

Mat 25:6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.

Mat 25:7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.

Mat 25:8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.

Mat 25:9 But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.

Mat 25:10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.

Mat 25:11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.

Mat 25:12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.

Mat 25:13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.

Now remembering what was said about before the 10 virgins are servants unto the King being God, an his Son Being Jesus of whom they are ordered to obey.

The 5 which are foolish, are those caught away doing other things instead of putting what God Asked of them first, the 5 that were wise, of which the scripture says the Bridegroom knew them, was because they obeyed him the Kings Son, an as servants unto Jesus Christ are promised to be Blessed for there Obedience.

It also shows the jewish wedding which is found in John of which there was 1 bride, 1 bridegroom, plus the servants who obeyed Jesus of which you can read by yourself.
