Those who hear, understand and know the Lord's will. John 6:40
"Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”John 8:32
"whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life" John 5:24
Twin,
does it offend you that God might have mercy on EVERYONE?
Does it bother you that you are not the only one going to heaven?
If God decided to save the world through Jesus Christ, does that not sit well with you?
Does it surprise you that with God nothing is impossible?
Peace,
Brian

Apparently Christ wanted those on the outside to burn in hell forever, because that's just the kind of guy He is. Go figure.
Yes makes perfect sense. Instead of speaking clearly, confuse them so they will burn in agony forever.
Wasn't Jesus trying to keep the religious from hearing? That way they couldn't figure out how to flee from the wrath to come and be saved from judgment in 70 A.D. Something like that.

No, Jesus wanted the masses to burn in hell. That's why He spoke in parables - so they wouldn't understand and be forgiven.
You actually think Jesus confused people so that they would end up in eternal torment?
This is worse than I thought. Egad.

So you agree with the assessment that Jesus confused people so they would burn in hell?
