What is Jesus revealing to his disciples and those who were about him in Matthew 13:12?
He was revealing to his disciples after speaking in parables the mysteries of the kingdom of God, which can be explained by the parables and teachings a person must believe to enter the kingdom an obedient person. Verse 12 means that Some believers increase in knowledge but unbelievers go into more ignorance and darkness – Romans 1:18. To take away what a person has is through man’s own unbelief and the work os satan through rebellion. Verse 15.
