Show Notes

In this message, Hanli speaks on the parable of the Great Banquet recorded in Luke 14:15-24. The Lord Jesus uses this simple yet profound parable or story to teach us about the blessed truths regarding the Kingdom of God. 

The initial guests described in this story refused their invitation and therefore did not have even one taste of the feast. In contrast, the unworthy were compelled to enter in by the generous host; each having their fill of the great feast. What was the key difference between these two groups of people? It is the place of God in their hearts - whether or not being with God was more important than everything else in their lives. Is this true of you today? Only those who treasure God above all else, yes, even their own lives, can be sure that they will enter the blessed Kingdom of God. May the Lord make this true of all our hearts!
