MY FRIENDS IS THIS THE LAST INVITATION?

0_0_0_0_250_228_csupload_44154945My friends let’s focus on Matt 22 today “when Jesus spoke to them again in parables, saying: “The kingdom of heaven is like a king who prepared a wedding banquet for his son. He sent his servants to those who had been invited to the banquet to tell them to come, but they refused to come……….“Then he said to his servants, ‘The wedding banquet is ready, but those I invited did not deserve to come.

So go to the street corners and invite to the banquet anyone you find. So the servants went out into the streets and gathered all the people they could find, the bad as well as the good, and the wedding hall was filled with guests. “But when the king came in to see the guests, he noticed a man there who was not wearing wedding clothes… He asked, ‘How did you get in here without wedding clothes, friend?’

The man was speechless. “Then the king told the attendants, ‘Tie him hand and foot, and throw him outside, into the darkness….. FOR MANY ARE INVITED, BUT FEW ARE CHOSEN.“  My friends it’s only a wedding what is the big deal? we should be able to just go home and change, and even if we miss this wedding there will be OTHER INVITATIONS. Or will there be?

Oh what faith, and the Sacrifice of Calvary that was made so that everyone who accepted THE INVITATION could be there. But there will be some clothed in the dress of the world. It will show that they spent no time in knowing, or making the preparation required by the king to be there. For in Matt. 7:21(NKJV) it tells me “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.

In addition, the saddest words we will ever here will be “How did you get in here without wedding clothes” And what could possibly be one’s answer when the King gave 2.resizedeveryone who was invited His own robe of righteousness, His only Begotten son. The only thing that was required was to accept the KING’S INVITATION and the free gift of His garment.

So in not accepting we have condemned ourselves. And then the king said, “Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness.” So yes my friends this will be the LAST INVITATION so we must get the required attire right the first time. The Marriage represents the unification of Jesus Christ incarnate as the son of God and humanity.

The wedding garment represents the transformation of our character to be like that of God’s only Begotten Son Jesus Christ. And to everyone who got it right one day soon we will be part of that “great number” who will witness “Jesus [as He] raises “His mighty, glorious arm, [and] lays hold of the pearly gate, swings it back on its glittering hinges and says to us, “You have washed your robes in my blood, stood stiffly for My truth, enter in.

images” We all march in and fill that we have a perfect right in the city…….We try to call up our greatest trials, but they looked so small compared with the far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory that surrounds us that we cannot speak them out, and we all cry out, “Alleluia, heaven is cheap enough!” we then touched our glorious harps and make heaven’s arches ring….

There we saw most glorious houses, most glorious to behold….…. Soon we heard Christ lovely voice, saying, “Come, my people, you have come out of great tribulation, and done My will; suffered for Me; come in to supper, for I will gird Myself, and serve you.” We shout, “Alleluia! Glory and honor to the King of King and Lord of Lord’s” (From the writings of E.G. White)

My friends, THE LAST INVITATION HAS BEEN SENT OUT and God’s Kingdom is where the final banquet of the redeemed will take place. The decision is yours, so are you willing to do whatever it takes to be there for my God will come soon, and His reward is with Him, “to give every man or woman according as his work shall be.” Rev. 22:12

 

So my friends today. Stay focused, remain faithful, love one another and endure till the end and never forget to STUDY&PRAY
