Parables, more Parables, everywhere Parables

Hi Joe,
When He was up on the mountain with His disciples (students), how many were up there with Him?
At daybreak He called them all to Him and out of these He chose the 12 apostles.
I hope that I'm not off base here or out of line in answering you post.
Peace, Bluzman

Hey Joe,
      I was watching the video of the Chrysalis morphing into the Butterfly and it was truly amazing. It brought to my remembrance what I had heard some time ago. To save money, many times the WCG local congregation would use silk flowers as the arrangement. On the "holy days" they were always real. As long as you were across the room you could not tell whether they were "real" or "fake".  However, the closer you were to the flowers the more apparent it became. Those that were made by man became less and less perfect the closer you looked until you knew they were made by the hand of man. Those made by God became more and more perfect until you knew they were made by Him. The closer you look at something God has made the more orderly it becomes-the more beautiful those things are. This shows me that what man does is only a shadow of what he will be able to do when he is granted real life in the family of God.

Very Very Good Posts! My kids are chapters 17, 16, 11, 3 and 1 of my life of parables. Ok. Even that sentence is a parable. Amazing!

 What a wonderful thread  really open up my mind to the creation of God.  Not to be anger because those around us are walking in darkness,  seeing the parables in every day life and knowing God is choosing us by this witness of having his truth.  Praise God 
doesn't this just make you wanta grow and grow and grow!!!even though its through suffering?  now we can understand and look at our trials and hardness of our life differently.  peggy  the sheep are feeding and it is good
