Matthew 22: 9-10
“… ‘Go therefore to the main highways, and as many as you find there, invite to the wedding feast.’ Those slaves went out into the streets and gathered together all they found, both evil and good; and the wedding hall was filled with dinner guests.”
This is the parable of the king’s servants being ignored and killed while presenting people with an invitation to the king’s son’s wedding feast. After the destruction of those that killed his servants the king sent out the invitation to anyone who would come to join him in his celebration.
This parable is aimed at those that had ignored or killed the prophets that God had sent. The good news is that God then sent an open invitation to all of us to join Him at His eternal banquet. My mother used to say, "When God closes a door He opens a window." Thank you God for opening the window to allow sinners like me into Your banquet.
I am so thankful to have a merciful and loving God.
