The Great Banquet Made Simple

"Many are called — and the table is still open."

The Lord Jesus Christ told of a master who prepared a great supper and, when the invited made excuses, sent his servant into the highways and hedges to compel them to come in, that his house might be filled; for many are called, but the table of the Father is still open to all who will come to Christ (Luke 14:15-24). This verse-by-verse walk through the Parable of the Great Banquet examines the three great excuses — possessions, occupation, and relationships — and follows the servant's urgent mission to the streets, lanes, highways, and hedges, calling every reader to take their seat at the feast and then go compel others to come.
