Part 2 of 2
Jesus gives them eight (8) parables to relate to what? Do you honestly separate all these stories for different intentions of God? Did not God say he came to do ONE THING? It is good that a person might take away “manners” from a parable; but, that person is a FOOL IF HE HAS LEARNED MANNERS FOR HELL!!!!
And Jesus answering spake unto the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath day?
Luke 14:3 KJV
V. 15: 32
“It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.”
Luke 15:31-32 KJV
NOW, it is really complicated! When Jesus uses the word, “brother” he is figuratively using it for His own brother! His brothers are all the Jews standing in front of him! He told the disciples not to go tell the Gentiles until he has finished with his brothers FIRST! HIS BROTHERS ARE TRULY DEAD!!! Jesus then explains how the “OLDER BROTHER” (the Jewish religion of salvation) was dead and alive again ( STANDING IN FRONT OF THEM!).
Then he says the younger brother was dead but now found! None of that relates to the “older son”. We can check by reading some more scripture. Like I told you, all the parables relate.
Luke 16:14-15:
“And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him. And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.”
Luke 16:14-15 KJV
The older brother is a type of Pharisee! I believe it is very clear Jesus is talking to them ABOUT THEM (they are his brother Jews; they are the “older righteous deserving salvation by inheritance; they do NOT have the correct HEART of God; they rejected Him just like the older brother rejected his father and was mad!; and the boy NEVER DOES WHAT THE “PRODIGAL SON” DOES!
He got on his knees!
Go back and read all the signs of the forgiven son!
There is absolutely NOT A SINGLE VERSE IN ANY STORY THAT WOULD DECLARE THAT “TYPE OF PHARISEE” ( which is the “older son”) RECOGNIZING JESUS AS GOD!
SO, WHO HAS WASTED ALL THAT HE HAS?
LOOK AT THE PHARISEE AND TELL ME HE IS NOT THE “PRODIGAL SON”! HE IS!!!!!!!!!!!
The younger has been PUT FIRST!!!!!!
The younger has considered himself last amoung all the others!!!!!!!?
The Dad had ALL OF HEAVEN SING, PLAY MUSIC AND HAVE A GRAND BANQUET!!
Now apply this parable with the end of those eight parables Jesus stood there for the Pharisees: “
Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it. For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
Matthew 16:24-26 KJV
Who is the “substance waster”?
Was it the rich man that walked away?
Here it is the Pharisees who denied Christ and ALL THAT HE HAS! THEY ARE THE PRODIGAL SONS! THE STORY IS ABOUT JESUS AND ALL OF HUMANITY ARE HIS CHILDREN; SOME COME TO THEMSELVES FROM HEARING THE TRUTH AND OTHERS REJECT HIS LOVE AND TRUTH FOR WHAT THE WORLD, THE TREE OF KNOWLEDGE, AND MAMMON HAVE TO OFFER; BUT IT WAS NOT the younger boy who wasted JESUS dying on the cross!
Look back at the board with all those strings of yarn. What do you see? You should recognize a shaw, coat or robe of many colors. A jewish garment especially worn while tending sheep and even more so by the Father’s favorite. Jesus has made you a robe out of your Spiritual recognition of ALL THE WHOLE BIBLE OFFERS, not just an expository thread or ripped piece of truth. Take the PTN robe and wear it when reading. Think of every thought of how it relates to Jesus; not so much the character in the story. Everybody is a type of Jesus or Satan. There is nothing else on this planet but fullfilled plans or unfullfilled plans of God’s plan! A testimony is great! But a testimony has no life. A robe is a result of daily living and discerning EVERYTHING will be taken with you into the afterlife! The Egyptians, Chinese and all the cultures understood this ideology; they just missed the train with “what and how their stuff would get there”. They buried it all in the ground around them. You can take it if you store it in your heart! Jesus provides the treasure box and he promises that “there it will be also”! Jesus is the crown of your life if you generate a PTN for him. Bless all who see more of Jesus from the veils that are removed in your studies for him. Give him praise. Hear the music! Dance and let your mouth water for the “sweeter” water in heaven (the story of Moses at the end) and the feast at his table like Mephibosheth.
