In this lesson we learned that Jesus communicated truth through miracles and parables. Give an example of each.
-
The truth of His miracles is that He is God. He defies the laws of nature in turning water to wine, resurrecting the dead, walking on water, and healings. He communicated truth of His teachings through parables such as the prodigal son.
-
The truth is that through God’s spoken word he can create something from nothing. And Jesus had that that power to speak and to create. All of jesus’s parables are clearly explained in the Bible through its context, they are not riddles so that we need to guess. We should never supply our own paintings to The parables with open to the context to see exactly what he meant.
-
The truth is revealed through miracles, such as the healing of the man with the withered hand. Jesus knew that the religious leaders were testing Him to see if He would violate the Sabbath. However, His healing of the man’s withered hand demonstrated that He is Lord of the Sabbath. In the parable of the prodigal son, we see a true expression of Jesus’ unconditional love, a love that leaves no room in the heart for rejection.
-
An example of a miracle is when Jesus went to the pool where sick and invalids went for healing and Jesus asked a man who was paralyzed for 38 years if he wanted to be healed. the man said yes, and Jesus told him to get up, and he was healed immediately. a parable would be when Jesus told about the wedding supper, and how those who were known and related to the bridegroom did not respond to the invitation, so the Father of the bridegroom sent out servants to invite strangers to the wedding, since the wedding feast was ready.

An example of a parable is the lost coin. An example of a miracle is when Jesus changed water into wine. Both types of communication were a powerful way Jesus communicated to the people.
