21072016 Gospel Mt 13:10-17

Then his disciples came to him and said, “Why do you speak to them in parables?”

Jesus answered, “To you it has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but not to these people. For the one who has will be given more; and he will have in abundance. But the one who does not have will be deprived of even what he has. That is why I speak to them in parables; because they look and do not see; they hear; but they do not listen or understand.

In them, the words of the prophet Isaiah are fulfilled: However much you hear, you do not understand; however much you see, you do not perceive.

For the heart of this people has grown dull. Their ears hardly hear and their eyes dare not see. If they were to see with their eyes, hear with their ears and understand with their heart, they would turn back, and I would heal them.

But blessed are your eyes, because they see; and your ears, because they hear.

For I tell you, many prophets and righteous people have longed to see the things you see, but they did not see them; and to hear the things you hear, but they did not hear them.

Nan bata pa ako, makadumdom ako sa lumon nako sa Habungan na si Mano Dodoy na molaong na susambingay inin ako deklarasyon dijo para kamo magpinsada sa ijo mga huna-huna.

Pero dinhi sa ato Ebanghelyo kuman, nangatana an mga disciple kon uno man na ipaagi man ni Jesus sa susambingay an Ija mga pagtudlo?

Para dako, kon an tawo dili kon sinsero sa ija pagpamati sa panultihon hilabina sa Balaang Kasulatan, dili gajud motuhop sa ija kasing-saking an mga pagtudlo.

Pero kon tinuoray gajud sanan sinsero ini sa pagdawat sa mga pagtudlo, iproseso nija an ija taghidunggan sa ija utok, pagkatapos, ija ini isuyod sa ija kasing-kasing, despuwes, ija na ini gamiton sa ija adlaw-adlaw na kinabuhi.

Kuman, andam ba ‘sab kita modawat nan mga pagtudlo nan ato Lord Jesus Christ pinaagi sa mga pulong sa Bible?
