When my wife was sick at home she called me at the office and asked me stop by the grocery store on my way home to buy a loaf of bread.
Listen; if I am not mistaken I can not remember going to a grocery store since I became an adult. But as I got inside I had no idea where the bread was. I walked all over the store and finally found the section that had the bread. That was not an easy job because there were all kinds of bread on ...read more

There are many excuses we can offer for not accepting the invitation to come to the banquet which God has prepared, but none of our excuses are valid because Jesus deals with them all.
Friends in the Lord, One thing you can guarantee when you have Jesus over to your place for dinner is that the table conversation will always be very interesting. Which is exactly what is happening in our text. But the teachings of Jesus aren’t recorded just because they are “interesting”. The ...read more

So great was Lot's love of Sodom, the angels had to drag him and his family out. Sin had such a hold on them and they left with nothing. He should NEVER have been in Sodom in the first place. We look at Lot's offering his daughters to be gang raped. A disgrace.

The original recipients of the invitation to the banquet (Matthew 22:1-7) refused to attend, giving flimsy excuses that resulted in their destruction (v.7). Who would attend the banquet now? Here is where we see the king's mercy extend to "the least of these".
