How To Understand The Parables of Jesus | The Catholic Talk Show

[@thebronzebaron2419]

I'm not Catholic I wasn't raised Catholic. I'm Protestant, yet I find these videos very interesting, & intriguing!

[@davidhoward2074]

I was raised Protestant and made the switch two years ago and haven’t looked back. The Real Presence in the Eucharist is something Protestants don’t practice. And it’s a shame.

Great episode. I really hope you revisit the parables again. Maybe every few months take another 3 or 4 to examine. One of the most sobering thoughts I’ve heard came from a homily a few years ago. The priest made the point that even if you were they only person alive on the face of the earth, Jesus would have still gone through his crucifixion, death, and resurrection to save you. That really hits home and illustrates how much each of us are loved by God.

[@fakecubed]

Please cover every single parable, however many videos it takes.

[@CarolineRobicheaux-gx2xn]

I Love the parables and discussing them. Nothing is better than growing up spiritually

[@rc3088]

Thank you, as I don't always understand the parables. Excited to learn more.

[@marthammiller2280]

i enjoy listening to you all. I wish I could have lived in Jesus time and have known Him! Wao!

[@margueritelangton6362]

Great episode. Please do at LEAST one more of these. And please continue unpacking the multiple layers of the parables. That provides lots of food for meditation. Thanks. M

[@theresajohnson5872]

Just want to tell you guy's, that I watch everyday. I love how you have great discussions and to be honest, you have taught me things about my faith I never knew. I have started a journal of your broadcast. I take notes and write down what inspires me and make notes about books, church's and people of the spirit. I would like to see what the woman of the church read. Who did they follow. Mother Theresa is fabulous. Thank you for bringing me closer to God and back to the basics.

Very interesting episode. I would not mind another one on the parables. I always struggle on parables.

[@ElizabethBoldy-ks3iw]

Very interesting views on parables. They've often puzzled me and this has given me a whole new perspective.

[@JeremyTaylor-bh6dx]

The parable of the Prodigal Son is about why is the Gentiles and Jews can now B one over the heavens and the Earth in the same uncreated God through space and it's only begotten son our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ what a beautiful story was it was even Charles Dickens said something incredibly beautiful and profound about this story give thanks to the lord, for he is good. His Mercy endures forever

[@jean4575]

A priest told us before, "Parables are earthly stories which have heavenly messages. . . . Holy Family loves you 💗 💓 Jesus, I trust in you 💗 💓

[@Imahuckleberry]

He is right, parables are earthly stories with heavenly meanings. Jesus spoke nothing but parables. But sadly most all don't understand them. A parable is a comparison, and nothing more. I will give you an earthly example with a heavenly meaning. When Jesus spoke he was revealing his FATHER. He said no one knows, nor see or heard his FATHER. He always spoke COMPARISONS ( parables). He did this non stop. Even when he taught us to pay to the FATHER in heaven, he was still comparing. In the prayer he mentioned " lead us not into temptation ", he was comparing to an earthly story. He was comparing his FATHER to the one who tempted all those people in the desert. He compared ABBA to YHWH

[@Alex.the.humble]

I love secrets

[@jamesflynn4741]

Totally agree re humor / irony in some of our Lord’s parable. The Merchant selling everything just to own a single perfect pearl? That guy’s nuts! Our Lord gently mocks those chasing earthly wealth there, I think. But the Gospel of course is always read aloud in a very solemn way, miss that humor/irony. Though it’s good to err on side of reverence. Hey, could you guys also join Rumble? Would be great to stream your show there. It’s free and can play in background mode, unlike KZbin (i canceled my YT subscription)

[@anonkurian]

Great episode guys.

[@michaelkahl4940]

I am one of those like the brother, who are likely to fall into angry thoughts when being confronted with people who don't act according to my imagination of how things are supposed to be handled. It is a curse. And I know other people who are cursed like this. I am at that point, that I realized, that my thoughts themselves are okay when there is no anger, because I can go on and have new thoughts on the situation. But in the spirit of anger I am stuck with that one first thought, like the brother who only thinks "why did I not get even a goat?". Frustration is the result. So my way out of this dillema is to always be aware and when this kind of anger, that is not justifiable is appearing in my heart, I keep on thinking, talking honestly with the father, expressing my feelings and processing the situation. Keeping my mouth shut, asking questions like "what does this person need?", thinking praying about answers and listening and watching closely to what is going on outside of me.enables me to overcome anger and dive into the dimensions of love. S I want to encourage you to process your thughts out of anger to love. Church is a great place, for example when someone is late for holy mass.

[@michaelkahl4940]

Thank God for bringing this parable into my life 2000 years after his son telling it to us and making it easily accesible.

[@andywatson1776]

NEVER let the Sun set on your anger. And you might do that by using it to do good. First you will need to lighten your judgment on His Kingdom. Anger is a wonderful gift. Read the Sermon on the Mount CAREFULLY a few times.

[@CHepp-ts4mu]

LOL, may God bless you with peace. I apologise for my late entry to daily and Sunday masses for many years. I did my best with full time work, full time homeschooling, barfing babies, lost shoes, my forgetful elderly aunt whom I also cared for. You gave me such a smile! My spouse dislikes tardiness concerning Mass also. Family life is a reality check, especially when few Churches consider mass times for young families.

[@cynthiakane9928]

Oh my the beautiful words that you speak from your open heart through the Holy Spirit just helped my discerning. Today is my day of four hours of adoration I was not able to go due to weather, so I tuned in sooner to the Catholic Talk Show where the Holy Spirit spoke to me through your comment🙏 thank you and God bless you 😇

[@michaelkahl4940]

@@cynthiakane9928 Thanks to the Holy Spirit for your beautiful comment! It made me reread my comment and I needed that right now. I was somehow lost in the search for christmas gift ideas and was not aware of other peoples real needs. I was drawn into agression due to some mean encounters I had with people close t me.It was unpleasant. I was circling in thoughts around the wounds, they gave me. But by thinking about their needs, the pain I feel gets instantly treated with God's Love which is a very good medicine, probably the best. :)

[@IK31704]

Ok.. I'll believe you. But if it was, that wasn't necessary. After all the good talk you guys had in this show, then made that little remark, it's seems like you didn't hear yourselves and what you were talking about earlier. But what do I know, maybe I'm wrong... I'm just very, very sad that catholics are going after each other, like we don't have enough attacks from the others, that's all . I'll admit, I stopped the video after that comment. I promise I'll finish the rest of it, maybe it gets better. Love your shows always (and "those other" too). Greetings to all, especially Fr. Pagano. God bless!

[@tenderlyone]

I can tell that you come from a protestant church because, as you know, they are very good at telling people how to think about the Bible. In reality, the Bible should be interpreted according to the way, we are able to read it. Jesus only gave us advice and ways of getting along better.

[@CatholicTalkShow]

We are all Catholics from birth.

[@aaroncordle4344]

I can’t believe they didn’t make the connection of the house on the rock to the foundation of the Catholic Church and Peter as the first Pope. “I name you Peter and on this ROCK I will build my church….” Everything in that passage about the gates of hell not prevailing against it etc. is a reference to the winds and the storms that were unable to topple the house on the rock. The church is the Lord’s house and Peter was the first piece of bedrock.

[@CHepp-ts4mu]

Yes I agree! Jesus told Peter that and that he is. Though when building we know the Most important is the cornerstone. As everything rests upon the cornerstone. The cornerstone will continue to hold up the building even if the foundation has a crack!

[@CHepp-ts4mu]

@@dirkfirkle73 yes Jesus laid the foundation of the Church, Peter. So we all must do our best in building of the Church, as not to cause cracks in the foundation! Jesus the cornerstone will hold up the Church; though it would be best if we built it properly as not to allow any leaks when the storms come.

[@CHepp-ts4mu]

@@dirkfirkle73 well I guess my theology professor explained it different than yours. I can never see Jezu cracking from deception. My Jesus is strong, is the rejected cornerstone. Have a blessed day

[@margaretrogers9811]

It is important to realize that Santa Claus is a parable of God the Father, who loves us beyond all telling, who knows our faults and talents, who knows the greatest desires of our hearts, and who blesses us with all we need.

[@CHepp-ts4mu]

Hmm, I was taught St Nicholas was real and his feast day is coming up!

[@margaretrogers9811]

St. Nicholas is real. I mean that the story of Santa Claus teaches children about love.

We are so deceived by the devil, if we rearrange Santa you get Satan. St. Nicholas feast is near. Good bye "Santa"

[@donnaharding7702]

Guys don’t get people mixed up, yes our Lord wants all of us to have relationships with him. He also teaches sin no more. So don’t confuse people with living a lifestyle of living with someone and or living a life style that is against the sin that cries to heaven. If we are living according to that being life that is chase . This what confuses people, make sure your clarify. Being chase is for all!!!

[@andywatson1776]

The Way is by hookers and beer. Thanks Be to G-d. The Eyes are the Lamps of the body. (Mathew 6). the Ears Be Open (Luke 7). So that His Kingdom may be on Earth as it is in Heaven. We are all called to Be healers if only of our selves our own souls so that we may see and be and hear the word of the Lord. There is a lot of mystery in the Wisdom books. What a marvelously difficult mystery. But keep looking until you can move beyond the exoterics. Remember, the debate in part between Saducees and Pharasee (which the Apposles were according to Acts) is a dispute that the Torrah remain oral not written. And in the OT, parable is used to convey mystery and esoterics.

A parable is nothing more than a comparison, and it's that simple. Jesus is comparing his FATHER to YHWH. For instance, when Jesus asked what kind of father would give a snake to his kid, that would be YHWH. Or he asked what kind of ( sorry) father would give a stone when his child wanted bread? YHWH gave stones ( manna)that they grumbled about, thus YHWH sent snakes. Jesus said it wasn't Moses that gave bread, BUT HIS FATHER GIVES TRUE BREAD. Who's FATHER? Jesus's FATHER, Not the father of the catholics, their father is the John 8:44 YHWH. No Christians understand the parables, because the parables [ COMPARISONS] oppose their God YHWH the devil. There you have it, the mystery is solved
