In Mark 4 people ask Jesus why He uses parables. He explains, "To you has been given the secret of the kingdom of God, but for those outside everything is parables, so that they may indeed see but not perceive, and may indeed hear but not understand, lest they should turn and be forgiven."
God has blessed those with Him in that we hear and understand the meaning of these parables, they are not just stories. Those however that are not in Christ, hear the story, but do not understand. They miss the meaning and the lesson of each story.
