Brian, this verse teaches that God does not wish for all men to hear the truth and understand, lest they should be healed. (Or saved) Matthew 13 " 13 Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand. 14 And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive: 15 For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them." Sadly, we have a few of these on this thread. James

Excellent post Brian. If you had a bible that correctly translated aionian(ie, pertaining to the eon or age), you'd be on the money. alan
