Note 2 at Mt. 13:12: In context, Jesus is speaking about those who have revelation knowledge (see note 1 at Lk. 2:26, p. 22) of the mysteries of God. They will receive more revelation and therefore will walk in the abundant life that Jesus provided (Jn. 10:10; 2 Pet. 1:3). Those who do not receive God's revelation will lose whatever truth they did have and will go farther and farther into deception. God reveals His truths to us in stages and not all at once (Isa. 28:9-10). Therefore, as we walk in the revelation of what the Lord has already shown us, then He will reveal more of His truths to us.
