Am I going to have to post the MANY times Jesus said:

"I tell you the truth."

No, I've read the whole Bible, most of it more than once. I know what Jesus said. The truth he revealed was a bigger picture of life and God and man's place in the world.

And many times, if not almost all the time, He did this through parables. Remember this verse?

"Jesus spoke all these things to the crowd in parables; he did not say anything to them without using a parable. So was fulfilled what was spoken through the prophet: 'I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter things hidden since the creation of the world.'"

-Matthew 13:34-35

...he did not say anything to them without using a parable.

This sentence is not true.
