    Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Apr 12, 2022
     | 2,053 views

    This parable revolves around three categories of people, the host, the servants, and the Guests. Invited guests neglected and paid no attention to it. This parable conveys the divine call, divine clemency, and divine condemnation.

    Text: Matthew 22:1-14 Theme: Host or Guest? Greetings: The Lord is good. ‘Many are invited but few are chosen.’ (Matthew 22:14). Synopsis of the Parable: The word parable comes from the Greek word ‘parabole,’ which means “a placing beside”. It has a real-life or real-life situation from which ...read more

    The Wedding Banquet: Invitation, Ingratitude, And Indiscretion, Part I

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 20, 2023
     | 1,424 views

    Jesus' parable of the wedding banquet (Matthew 22:1-14) is a call to salvation. There will be many who will make poor excuses and refuse the invitation. There will be those who accept it with gratitude, but some will try to enter in their own way. In which category do you fit?

    Throughout the Scriptures, the call of God to come to Him for salvation, grace, and mercy is prominent. The paradise we lost at our fall into sin is not irreversible nor permanent. He has promised redemption even though we do not deserve it. He promised to make all things new, starting with the ...read more

    Those who responded were given white wedding garment and standing invitation to come until the banquet hall was full. The parable demonstrates the generosity of God who invites all to be saved and fellowship in His presence.

He said, 2 “The Kingdom of Heaven can be illustrated by the story of a king who prepared a great wedding feast for his son. 3 When the banquet was ready, he sent his servants to ...read more

    Over the next few days, Jesus taught in the temple daily and lodged in Bethany. The religious leaders looked for an opportunity to kill Him and tried to trap Him with questions. Jesus rebuked them publicly. He spoke parables and talking to his disciples about the end times.

    Coming To The Feast Series

    Contributed by Michael Blitz on Nov 5, 2022
     | 3,102 views

    This message is intended to explain the great offense shown in ignoring both the invitation to the Feast and the refusal to wear the proper wedding Garment, which is a reflection of Christ's Righteousness.

    The parable which began Matthew 22, our Gospel lesson this morning, is a parable that can really bug people. It’s shocking and disturbing and I have found over the years that people complain about it because of how harsh it is. It also serves as a good way for us to better understand how to ...read more

    How should we go about inviting people to come to Christ?

    Jesus enjoyed parties. His very first miracle was at a wedding feast. When He called Matthew to follow Him, He went to Matthew’s house for a party. So it’s not surprising, when the religious leaders criticized Him, they said He went to too many parties, attended by wrong people. “The Son of Man ...read more

    One of the ways that we know we will be saved is the fact that we are clothed with Christ. Entrance into the great heavenly wedding feast requires the proper clothing...the righteousness of Christ.

    The Deceptive Power Of A Good Excuse

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Jul 29, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,075 views

    Excuses can rob us of God's best. They are an enemy of great faith and accomplishment. In this examination of Luke 14:15-24, we learn from Jesus's story about those who excused themselves from a great feast. Those people missed the opportunity of a lifetime.

    Intro We take as our text today Luke 14:15-24. Follow with me as we read that passage. “Now when one of those who sat at the table with Him heard these things, he said to Him, ‘Blessed is he who shall eat bread in the kingdom of God! 16 Then He [Jesus] said to him, ‘A certain man gave a great ...read more

    Las excusas pueden privarnos de lo mejor de Dios. Son enemigas de la gran fe y de los logros. En este análisis de Lucas 14:15-24, aprendemos de la historia de Jesús sobre aquellos que se excusaron de asistir a un gran banquete. Esas personas perdieron la oportunidad de su vida.

    Introducción Hoy tomamos como texto Lucas 14:15-24. Acompáñenme a leer este pasaje. “Oyendo esto uno de los que estaban sentados con él a la mesa, le dijo: Bienaventurado el que coma pan en el reino de Dios. 16 Entonces Jesús le dijo: Un hombre hizo una gran cena, y ...read more
