"know when to stop interpreting and start obeying"

Sums it up right there

[NaiKiD]

so when Christians say they want new-revelation, the actually mean want further insight on existing revelation conveyed by CHRIST JESUS, PRAISE GOD

@cmpresents have you tried turning your volume up? or considered hearing aids?

[cmpresents]

This man didn't say anything.

[tweedleboo]

Damn this man can speak well. I enjoyed this a lot.

@usagicam Its from the Sermon series, Luke's Gospel: Investigating the man who is God, the sermon is called The parable of the barren fig tree.

[blainer19er]

(referring to Jesus' parables) "These are parabolic stories."

Any other people out there who have taken advanced math will also find this funny.

The last line is the punch line he was talking about. Makes alot of sense. Time to write our ending. Will we obey?
