“He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.”
Matthew 13:11 KJV
Jesus explained, “You’ve been given the intimate experience of insight into the hidden mysteries of the realm of heaven’s kingdom, but they have not.” These mysteries are secrets revealed to close intimate friends as spiritual insights into the ways and nature of God. Jesus Christ can only be understood by the spirit, not just the intellect of man. That’s why Jesus taught in parables to go beyond intellectual abilities and engage the spirit. The hearer having a hunger to learn with an open, teachable heart, heard Jesus’ words and received life and understanding. Let’s not allow our opinions and traditions to block the insights that Jesus teaches and all that He did. As Solomon said, “For the froward is abomination to the LORD: But His secret is with the righteous.” Amen!
