Sermon from November 22nd


The Parable of the Great Feast

Luke 14: 15 - 24

1. The best gift we will ever receive is being allowed to enjoy eternal fellowship with God in heaven.
2. Jesus warns that everyone has been invited, but we have to accept his invitation and go to the feast.
3. It was customary to send two invitations. The first announced the event well in advance. The second meant it was time to go to the feast.
4. The first group simply did not have time to go. This represents people who don't see Jesus as the most important thing in their lives.
5. God has plenty of room at his table. He has invited everyone to his banquet. Sinners, poor people, and even Gentiles are invited into God's fellowship.
6. Only those who accept Jesus' invitation will enjoy his wedding feast. Revelation 19: 9
