Nuestra imagen de Dios revela no sólo el carácter de Dios, sino también el nuestro. Las parábolas de Jesús revelan un Dios que está intencionalmente disponible para quienes lo buscan. Invitan al oyente a entrar en la narrativa e interactuar con Dios uno a uno para ampliar nuestra comprensión de la fe y de nosotros mismos. La imagen de Dios en el Nuevo Testamento toma al menos tres formas: la persona de Jesús, las enseñanzas de Jesús sobre el reino de Dios con las parábolas y la fundación de la iglesia en Pentecostés por el Espíritu Santo. En este libro me centraré en la imagen de Dios Padre que se encuentra en las parábolas. La autenticidad de las parábolas como palabras del propio Jesús rara vez se cuestiona, en parte porque las parábolas de Jesús son únicas, un género en sí mismas, pero no un género típico. Un género típico puede adherirse a una estructura o forma de historia particular, pero no una parábola. Imagen de Dios en las Parábolas está escrito en un formato devocional con reflexión, oraciones y preguntas para estudio. ***** Our image of God reveals not only God's character, but our own. Jesus' parables reveal a God who is intentionally available to those who seek him. They invite the listener to enter the narrative and engage with God one-on-one to expand our understanding of faith and of ourselves. The image of God in the New Testament takes at least three forms: The person of Jesus, Jesus' teaching about the kingdom of God with the parables, and the founding of the church on Pentecost by the Holy Spirit. In this book I will focus on the image of God the Father found in the parables. The authenticity of the parables as Jesus' own words is seldom questioned, in part, because Jesus' parables are unique, a genre unto themselves, but not a typical genre. A typical genre might adhere to a particular structure or story form, but not a parable. Image of God in the Parables is written in a devotional format with a reflection, prayers, and questions for study.
