Your entire argument is based on the wild speculation that "parables are lies so Jesus never told one" -- which is totally false.
Do you forget so quickly....your explanation?
You are the one who said;
??
So now you think PARABLES "ARE" words used in the strict meaning of the words?
Poor thing....
severely lacking in understanding!
Men speak in PARABLES According To, their nature, telling a story, speaking words in allegories, To get a Point across.
Apparently, unbeknownst TO YOU...
Jesus' nature IS NOT "EARTHLY" NATURAL!
Jesus came forth out from God in Heaven!
Jesus IS the TRUTH!
He can, According TO HIS Heavenly nature, only, literally Speak the Truth!
Allegory, Figuratively, not Literal, Does NOT APPLY TO Jesus!
When Jesus opened His mouth and spoke PARABLES To a Crowd....
Some, like you, believed, He was simply telling a MADE UP (which is NOT TRUTHS), Allegorical story, To make a Point......
While others, like me, do not care if His speech IS CALLED, a story, a parable, whatever.......but hang ON HIS EVERY WORD as ABSOLUTE TRUTH....and HIS WORD coming out of the MOUTH of He WHO IS ABSOLUTE TRUTH.
YOU go through Jesus' Parables, with the nature of a natural man, LOOKING FOR A POINT.
I go through Jesus' Parables, LEARNING, "secrets" that "Had been KEPT SECRET" from natural men, and Being Revealed out of Jesus' mouth.....
Many like you, read and dismiss the words in Jesus' Parables .... Even scripture tells of the huge crowds, and men walking away IN DISBELIEF.
It's like saying, yah, yah, "believe in Jesus, but not what He says".....
Matt 13:35
....I will open my mouth in parables;
I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.
Secrets Jesus uttered....that you do not believe.
That's on you.
Glory to God.
