    Don't Excuse Yourself From God's Banquet Of Salvation

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Nov 19, 2003
    based on 68 ratings
     | 8,381 views

    In the parable of the great banquet Jesus gives us a graphic warning about excusing ourselves from God’s feast of salvation in time and in eternity.

    “Are you looking for just the right excuse for a certain situation? Ask your pastor he has heard them all.” Although more of joke than advice there is some truth to it. Pastors do hear a lot of excuses. But I think it would be more correct to say that only God has truly heard all the excuses ...read more

    The Bible is so vast ... we can’t possibly memorize it all. Let’s not use this as an excuse for not living righteous lives. Jesus gives us ONE VERSE as a guide to live by.

We have seen what Jesus taught about: the Holy Spirit, Prayer, the Tongue, Thanksgiving, Repentance. This morning, we will see what Jesus teaches about “Priorities”. Everybody needs a ...read more

    God wants HIs house full. It is evident He is not content with half full churches as seen through the parable of the Great Supper.

    A FULL HOUSE LUKE 14:16-24 INTRODUCTION: Jesus was the dinner guest of a ruler of the Pharisees. At the dinner one of the guests hearing Christ speak, expressed a view held by many Jews that only Jews would be invited to the great feast of the Messianic kingdom.

    Offering excuses will never make better people.

    WHAT EXCUSE DO YOU HAVE FOR MAKING EXCUSES? Luke 14:18 And they all with one consent began to make excuses. Rom. 1:20... so that they are without excuse.

    We all give excuses. but when we give one to God, He knows the truth. An excuse is a reason not to do something. If you do that with God then any excuse will do!

    Any Excuse will do! Luke 14:16-14:24 This morning we are going to talk about excuses. We all have made them. Some excuses are better than others. Some are more valid than others and some are just plain lame. I have heard that some girls when asked out on a date, and they did not want to ...read more

    This parable got people listening to Jesus - as always. There was a twist for his hearers, and for us. Will we accept Gods invitation or will we make excuses?

    For the second week in a row the subject of food appears in our Bible reading. Last week we thought about Jesus sending out teams of two into the local towns and places that he was about to go (Luke 10:1). His teams were instructed to accept the hospitality of food and drink and shelter they were ...read more

    There are many excuses for rejecting what God has to offer, and God sees through them all. If we’re full of the world we’ll have no appetite for Heaven.

    Today’s parable starts out as table-talk. At a dinner, Jesus mentions “the resurrection of the righteous”, an encouraging truth. Someone at the table gets so excited, he declares a Beatitude: “Blessed is everyone who will eat at the banquet in the Kingdom of God!” ...read more
