Watch Las Parabolas de Jesus

Jesus's parables were there to explain messages only to those who have accepted God into their hearts and to those who have "hardened their hearts" and have "closed their eyes" and can not understand. Those short stories told by Jesus of Nazareth enclose a moral and religious education, revealing a comparatively spiritual truth. Parables aren't fables, because these characters are not involved animals with human characteristics, or allegories, they are based on credible facts or observations, taking most of these elements of everyday life. The parables are contained in the canonical Gospels, but can be found in the apocryphal gospels.
