And he spake a parable unto them, Can the blind lead the blind? shall they not both fall into the ditch? The disciple is not above his master: but every one that is perfect shall be as his master. And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but perceivest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Either how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me pull out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself beholdest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye, and then shalt thou see clearly to pull out the mote that is in thy brother's eye. For a good tree bringeth not forth corrupt fruit; neither doth a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes. A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh. And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say? Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like: He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock. But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.

'And after that He spoke to them in parables.' When He spoke to Nicodemus, He spoke plainly, and you are still rejecting His clear teaching. Have you read the scene where Jesus told Nicodemus about the brass snake?

It is interesting, since it parallels the History of Catholiciism in a sense, that several hundred years after the brass snake incident, the Children of Israel were making little snake idols and keeping them in their homes, praying to them. A new king had to clean up that mess of idolatry ...

BTW, you seem unable to answer The Question! But true to form you try to post a diversion so your ignorance is hidden.

Why are you quoting Luke??? You said John and Acts are the only books that were free from massive translation error??? How do you know that story even occurred???
