Matthew 13:9
This is one of Jesus’ favorite sayings. It’s like saying, ‘Ya got ears don’t ya, why don’t ya use ’em?’ That’s the southern version, anyway. Literally, Jesus is saying that his words are so important that anyone who has ears should listen to him. They will find that his words are the most important thing they will ever hear. Almighty God gave people ears so we could use them, and there is no better use of them than to hear the words of Christ.
