Ideas? Jesus talked to the crowds about ideas? He lectured and taught the crowds with ideas? I presume that you mean ideas unconnected with His other teachings.

All I was saying is that the story of the prodigal son was not designed to give a full picture of salvation.

Sure it was. It shows that God loves us even when we debtray Him and are ungreatful to Him; He treats us with mercy we don't deserve, He gives in abundance, and accept those fallen away when they repent. If that's not being a full picture of salvation, I don't know what is!
