List Of Parables In The Bible Pdf

The parables in the Bible were part of Jesus’ teaching style. He used them to help people understand the truth about God and his kingdom, as well as their place in it.

Here are some of the most popular parables from the Bible:

1. The Prodigal Son – This story is about a son who leaves his father’s house and squanders his inheritance on wasteful living. His father welcomes him back with open arms when he realizes how much he needs him.
2. The Good Samaritan – This story shows us that we should be kind to everyone, even those who don’t deserve it. A Samaritan helps a man who has been beaten by robbers, despite being hated by Jews at the time for being a foreigner.
3. The Mustard Seed – This parable tells us that something small can grow into something great with time and care—just like how our faith can grow over time if we nurture it with love and devotion!

Introduction

Jesus taught in parables. And like His culture, He was an expert storyteller. But unlike the stories we tell today, Jesus’ stories have a purpose and meaning to them. They’re designed to help us understand what living the Christian life is all about. This article will explain a few of the parables Jesus told and how they can help us live better lives. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it!

YE ARE THE SALT OF THE EARTH

• You are the salt of the earth.
• You are the light of the world.
• You are the city set on a hill that cannot be hidden.
• You are the foundation that is not shaken, but you must remain firm in your faith even when your faith is tested by persecution, temptation and doubt.

THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD

In the parable of the Light of the World, Jesus is portrayed as a light that shines into a dark world. This parable has several important lessons for us to learn:

• Light symbolizes truth (John 3:19-21).
• Light is goodness (Psalm 97:10).
• Life comes through light (John 1:4-5).
• Salvation comes through Jesus, who is our “way back home” to God’s presence in heaven (John 14:1-2).

A CITY SET ON A HILL

The city of God is the church. It is described in terms of light, salt and toil.

The city of God is a light set on a hill so that all may see it. The church is also called a pillar and lampstand (Rev 1:12), which highlights her role as guide for all nations (Isaiah 49:6). In this respect she is like the pillar or lampstand in front of the tabernacle built by Moses when he brought forth the law from Mt Sinai (Exodus 27:21-22).

The church bears the same relationship to Christ as salt does to food – without it there would be no savor or flavor but instead corruption, decay and death (Matthew 5:13).

God has established His people as an example for others by giving them certain characteristics so they can shine brightly in their surroundings, whether they be dark or light ones!

THE TWO FOUNDATIONS

The two foundations are the Law and the Prophets.

The two foundations of our faith are the Word of God. The first witnesses are Moses and all the prophets who testified about his coming, including John the Baptist.

THE TRUE VINE

> Jesus is the vine and we are the branches. He is our source of life and nourishment, as well as all that we need to bear fruit and be fruitful. The Lord wants you to experience wholeness in your life through His Word so that you can know Him more intimately and love others better.

Jesus said, “I am the vine; you are the branches” (John 15:5). You cannot bear any fruit apart from Him because He gives us everything we need both spiritually and physically to live out our lives on earth—the same way a vine provides moisture, nutrients, stability and beauty for its branches.

If there were no sun shining on a grapevine or if its roots were not firmly planted in soil rich with nutrients then it would die immediately without any hope of producing sweet grapes! Likewise if our hearts did not receive spiritual nourishment from God each day through prayerful meditation upon His Word then they would become parched and unable to produce good works which glorify God’s name!

GOOD SHEPHERD AND WOLVES IN SHEEP’S CLOTHING

A good shepherd is one who cares for and protects his flock. Good shepherds keep their sheep from danger, and they protect them from wolves.

Jesus is the Good Shepherd; He loves us and protects us from wolves in sheep’s clothing. The Bible teaches that there are many false prophets who lead people astray, but Jesus teaches and guides us to Himself so that we can have eternal life with Him.

WHEAT AND TARES

The Parable of the Wheat and Tares

The parable of the wheat and tares is a story about the end times, where Jesus Christ will return to earth and judge everyone who has ever lived. In this scenario, there are two groups: those who believe in Jesus Christ as their savior (the wheat) and those who do not (the tares). The ones who believe are resurrected into heaven while those who don’t are cast into eternal hellfire.

In order to understand what it means for you to be saved by Jesus Christ, consider reading Matthew 7:13-14: “Enter through narrow gates; for wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.”

DRAUGHT OF FISHES

Another parable that Jesus told was about a man who had a net with a hole in it. The man threw the net into the water, and it was full of fish. When he brought it up onto the land, he found that there were so many fish that they were breaking through the net and escaping. So he cut off part of the net to make it larger and put his catch back into it. And when he threw this new version overboard, all these fish went through as promised—but they kept escaping through every crack and hole they could find!

And so Jesus asked: “What is this Kingdom like? Who can live in it? A house without windows or doors cannot be lived in!”

GREATEST COMMANDMENT

According to Jesus, the greatest commandment is to love God. The second is to love your neighbor as yourself. The third is like the first and second, which means if you want to go to heaven, make sure you love God and treat everyone equally with respect. The fourth one is like the first two, because it’s important not just for Christians but also for non-Christians or nonbelievers who want to get into heaven too.

The fifth commandment goes beyond this thought process though: “You shall not murder; you shall not commit adultery; you shall not steal; you shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.” This may seem overly restrictive but it’s really about how we treat other people in general rather than what specific actions we take towards them

BARREN FIG TREE, PARABLE OF TALENTS, AND RICH MAN AND LAZARUS (linear order)

• BARREN FIG TREE, PARABLE OF TALENTS, AND RICH MAN AND LAZARUS (linear order)

The parable of the barren fig tree is a story Jesus told about a man who went out one day to find fruit on his tree. When he didn’t find any, he said to his servant “Go out quickly into the streets and alleys of the town and bring in here the poor and crippled, the blind and lame.” The servant told him that there was none of these people outside but only one sick person inside. The master then said “Surely I tell you that even though they were not able to do anything while they were healthy, when they are broken or injured then they will be useful for something.”

WICKED HUSBANDMEN (Carries over from Matthew and Mark)

Parables are short stories that have a hidden meaning, and they are often used to teach lessons. They explain the nature of God and the Kingdom of God by using everyday situations that we can all relate to.

The parable of the wicked husbandmen (also known as The Parable Of The Tenants) is found in Matthew 21:33-46, Mark 12:1-12, Luke 20:9-18; and it carries over from Matthew and Mark.

Parables explained

A parable is a story with hidden meaning that requires interpretation. Parables have no practical application and are only meant to teach lessons, not tell stories. Parables are used to convey a message, or to teach some type of lesson about life or God.

The following are some examples of parables in the Bible:

• The Prodigal Son (Luke 15:11-32)
• The Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25-37)

Conclusion

You will be able to understand parables better if you know the meanings of words used in them. Study the meaning of words or phrases and it is possible that those words mean something other than what they seem to say.
