The parable of the wedding feast
The parable of the wedding feast (Mt 22,1-14; Lk 14,15-24) teaches that God invites all people into His Kingdom, but that rejecting this invitation brings a grave judgment. Spoken in the Temple of Jerusalem on the Tuesday of Passion Week, it prophetically announces the destruction of Jerusalem in AD 70. The man without a wedding garment reminds us that entering the Kingdom requires a genuine spiritual transformation, received by faith in Christ.
John 3.16-17 (King James Version) :For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.King James Version (1769), domaine public — texte : eBible.org
