That is not my understanding. I don't understand this to be the case.
I am here to learn and to teach. To fellowship and to preach. To study and to do.
Let us learn in order to teach. Let us learn in order to do.

Matt 13:10-11

John 16:26-33
26 "In that day you will ask in My name, and I do not say to you that I shall pray the Father for you;
27 "for the Father Himself loves you, because you have loved Me, and have believed that I came forth from God.
28 "I came forth from the Father and have come into the world. Again, I leave the world and go to the Father."
29 His disciples said to Him, "See, now You are speaking plainly, and using no figure of speech!
30 "Now we are sure that You know all things, and have no need that anyone should question You. By this we believe that You came forth from God."
31 Jesus answered them, "Do you now believe?
32 "Indeed the hour is coming, yes, has now come, that you will be scattered, each to his own, and will leave Me alone. And yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me.

xxx Parables are actions or stories that are a likeness to the facts and reality. Everything Jesus spoke can be a parable.
One must believe what Jesus said as fact to see the parable. Jesus said and done all these things on the outside of man. But He was teaching about the inside of man. They all happened that you see and hear. And that is the milk understanding. But the meat understanding is when the Holy Spirit shows you all these things inside yourself.
Rom 4:17
17 (as it is written, "I have made you a father of many nations") in the presence of Him whom he believed-- God, who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did;
