The Gospel, Matthew 22:1-14 is the parable of a king inviting people to his son’s wedding. The story serves as a metaphor for what Heaven is like. The message is quite radical. We have a king whose invited guests refuse to come. It is abundantly clear the king’s invitation is not a priority in their lives. Everything else is more important. I The King’s response, however, is surprising; he instructs his servants to go out and invite anyone they can find. This parable is presented to us as a metaphor about Heaven but actually, the story says more about who God is. This King – God shamelessly pursues the guests.
