Our paragraph topic is: (The king's anger) Part 4.
The king will not be deterred from his celebration. He wanted to have a party. He wanted others to enjoy his happiness, his joy. He had invited those that he thought were worthy. But they thought otherwise of the king. They apparently did not like the king. They must have hated him. They had contempt and animosity for him because they killed the messengers. But despite all that, he would not be deterred from this celebration.
So the king continued to make preparations for this celebration. He told his servants: Go therefore to the crossroads, and invite to the marriage feast whomever you shall find." And so it was that the king would invite all that would come and celebrate with him and his son. It would be a grand occasion. All would enjoy the music and the dancing and the food and the drinks for this happy occasion. And the king would be happy to see such joy in the people.
What does this say to us today? Would we like to go to the kings party? Would we like to be one of those invited to come? Go to the crossroads, go to the major intersections, shout it from the rooftops, tell everyone you know. Post it on Facebook, take pictures and show them on Instagram so everyone would know of the celebration. All will be invited and all will be welcomed at the party.
Will you come? Will you be there with everyone else? It will be the talk of the town. But this is different from the parties that we know of today. There will be no drugs. There will be no strip dancers. No guns allowed. Proper attire only. This will be the celebration of the year, of the century because this is the message that Christ wants all to understand about the kingdom of heaven. His father is having a party and he wants all to be invited.
Don't miss out! Don't hesitate! You are given the notice well in advance of the event so that you will have enough time to prepare, to get ready, to become worthy of the event. There are those who say they are not going. There are those who do not believe that it is worth their time. There are those who hate the king and would persuade you that you are not worthy to attend. Do not be persuaded by those who would turn you away from the party of the century, the party that is yours to attend. The decision is yours to make. Do not let someone else make it for you. The doors are open for all to attend. Put on your party outfit and come join the party!
Read the sign of the times! Read the Highlighted New Testament Bible and lift the scales from your eyes that you may see, that you may know, that you may find the truth of who you are in Christ. Read it as though you would read a good book, from cover to cover, and see for yourself. Do not study it in parts reading one passage nd then skipping to another, but read it for understanding. Read it for knowledge. Read it for faith. Read it that your eyes may be opened, that your ears may hear, that your heart may be filled with the light of Christ . The Holy Spirit awaits you. Christ seeks to know you. Open the door and let him in.
