What else can I help you with?
How would you have felt if you were a trader and had been thrown out by Jesus?
As a trader, I might have felt shocked, confused, and potentially embarrassed if I were thrown out by Jesus. It would depend on the circumstances and the message behind why I was being asked to leave.
What Event marks the beginning of Jesus public ministry?
Some might say Cana of Galilee, yet Jesus denied that his time had yet come. But in Luke4:16-21, it seems that Jesus had inaugurated hid public ministry, indicating it a fulfillment of the Scriptures.
Why did Jesus go to Galilee?
It is only in Matthew's Gospel (26:32) and Mark's Gospel (14:28) that Jesus tells the disciples that he will see them in Galilee. Again in Matthew's Gospel (28:10) the risen Jesus tells the women to tell the disciples that he will see them in Galilee. In Mark's Gospel (16:7), the young man inside the tomb repeats the message that Jesus had previously given the disciples, to meet him in Galilee. In Matthew's Gospel, Jesus really did meet the disciples in a mountain in Galilee, just as he had told them he would. This is the one gospel that properly links Jesus' instruction to what happens later. Mark's Gospel originally ended at verse 16:8, with the young man telling the women that Jesus was risen and they fled in terror, telling no one. This allows us to assume that Jesus might well have met the disciples there, even if the Gospel does not say so. However, the 'Long Ending' (verses 16:9-20) was subsequently added, and this removes any possibility of Jesus planning to meet the disciples in Galilee, since it portrays him as meeting them at a meal in Jerusalem, where he gave them a parting message. It would not have made sense in Luke's Gospel for Jesus to say that he would meet the disciples in Galilee because, after his resurrection, he met them in Jerusalem and was then taken bodily up into heaven on the very evening of his resurrection. Again, in John's Gospel it would have made little sense for Jesus to say that he would meet the disciples in Galilee because he met them twice in Jerusalem, although he later did meet them in Galilee.
Why did the pharisees want Jesus dead?
The Pharisees wanted Jesus dead because they saw him as a threat to their religious authority and influence. Jesus challenged their teachings and practices, which made them feel undermined in front of the people. They also feared that Jesus' growing popularity might lead to a loss of their power and control over the Jewish community.
Which apostle betrayed Jesus?
Peter did not betray Jesus; Judas did that. You might be thinking of the three denials: Jesus predicted that Peter would deny him three times before the crew that morning, and Peter did. (King James version: St. Matthew 26:68-75)
Why might a parable be a good way to teach a lesson?
parables where ways to explain something in a relatable way. they taught a lesson but in a way that people of there time could grasp the concept. like the parable of the sower. He put the lesson in farming lesson cause people back then understood it. Read matthew 13. Jesus tells you the parable ,the purpose of parables and then explains the parable he just told.
Who was jesus speaking to about the prodigal son?
This parable was used so that we might learn that when we fall away from the gospel we have the chance of returning again. But for those who have always been true to their faith their reward will be even greater.
How might one apply the parable of the three stewards to the human relationship with the environment?
This is a parallel that we can draw from that parable. The parable was not meant for the conclusion we draw from it of human environmental relationship. It is meant for our use of the talents that Jesus has given us to promote His Kingdom. The useless steward was not afforded a place in heaven as he did not use his talent to help others to an understanding of Jesus' kingdom. Take that as a warning because Jesus wants us to do the same. If we neglect to act we will end up in serious trouble The parallel to the environment is that we ARE STEWARDS of our individual sphere of influence and we are mandated to take good care of what Jesus lent us to use. It encompasses our entire scope of life, but for this time I would confine to our environment.
What does the story of the parable of the ten virgins tell us about?
Jesus said that He spoke in parables to hide the meaning from the self-righteous but to make known the mystery of the kingdom to His own. There is something special about the Parable of the Ten Virgins that many might. He wanted to hide its meaning to those who thought they had a special relationship with God because of their being the children of Abraham but Jesus never taught about salvation belonging to a race but about salvation being about grace. Even so, "They answered him, "Abraham is our father." Jesus said to them, "If you were Abraham's children, you would be doing the works Abraham" (John 8:39) "And do not think you can say to yourselves, 'We have Abraham as our father.' I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham" (Matt 3:9). Making them even angrier Jesus said "You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desires" (John 8:44). Jesus always spoke the truth but they were blinded and again, that is part of the reason that Jesus spoke to them in parables like the Parable of the 10 Virgins, so here is a personal view of this parable that you may have a different opinion on and if so, please chime in on what you think this parable means.
Why might a parable be used or even modified to teach different lessons in different gospels?
It is quite possible that Jesus used the same story more than once to illustrate different points and that the Gospel authors simply differed in which version of the story they selected.An individual Gospel author may have changed the setting of the parable to better illustrate the point he wished to make to his readers.
How would you have felt if you were a trader and had been thrown out by Jesus?
As a trader, I might have felt shocked, confused, and potentially embarrassed if I were thrown out by Jesus. It would depend on the circumstances and the message behind why I was being asked to leave.
How many times did Jesus talk about money and supply the scriptures?
Out of 38 parables in the gospels, 16 of them dealt with money.This is incorrect. Just read the parables and you will see that out of 46 (which do include a couple duplicates), only 15 mention money and this is even a stretch. The Parable of the Lost Coin is not about money. The Parable of the Prodigal Son is not about money. Jesus used money in some parables AS the parable. A parable is an analogy of a real story so if money is used as the parable then money is not the focus of the true event Jesus is trying to get us to understand. If the items in the parable were the actual items Jesus was speaking to, it wouldn't be a parable; it would be a discourse.In the Parable of the Lost Coin, the coin is a child of God who has turned away. Luke 15:10 clarifies this: "Just so, I tell you, there is joy before the angels of God over one sinner who repents." It's not a story about finding wealth. In the Parable of the Prodigal Son, the story as a whole is about forgiveness and God's unconditional love, not about blowing through a large amount of money and expecting to be welcomed upon your return.The 16/38 ration is a regurgitation of an apparently misunderstanding John MacArthur gives (p. 418 of his commentary on Matthew 1-7). I am not sure how he arrived at this number because it is entirely wrong.However, if you want to state that 15 out of an approximate 46 (many are in debate over the precise number) mention money, go right ahead but then you might as well mention that 18 have to do with food or farming and since that is more it must be more prominent.
Is there a parable that says walk in someone else's shoes before you judge them?
There is a parable that says "and why do you look at the speck in your brother's eye, and do not consider the plank that is in your own eye." "First remove the plank from you own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye." (Matthew 7:3-5)This parable by Jesus teaches us that we should examine our own lives before we attempt to judge anyone else's life.ANSWER 2:The parable isn't Biblical but there is an ancient Native American expression that the European settlers might have borrowed and adapted for their own use:"To know me walk a mile in my moccasins" and "To know me you must walk in my moccasins."
What can you learn from the parable of the wise and foolish bridesmaids?

How can you message Miranda Cosgrove?

How do you write a message to my late uncle?
Since you will not be able to deliver any messages to your late uncle (even if you obtain the help of a spiritualist) all you can do is to compose the message that you would have liked to be able to give to your uncle were he still around to receive it. Possibly you can help to organize your thoughts through this mechanism, of figuring out how you might express your thoughts to your late uncle.
What does Juliet send to Romeo after he is banished?
She doesn't have to send things to him because he is smuggled into her bedroom before he has to leave town but after he is banished. She doesn't send anything to him when he is Mantua. It might have helped if she had. She does send a ring with the nurse when she sends her to deliver the message to Romeo to come to her bed.
