NewThe point of the parable?

Mon, 09/16/24

I’m not sure Alcorn has the point of the parable, though I’m also not sure what would be correct. Jesus makes a really intriguing statement here, but I’m not confident of what it means.

Views expressed are always my own and not my employer's, my church's, my family's, my neighbors', or my pets'. The house plants have authorized me to speak for them, however, and they always agree with me.
