A detailed explanation of the 'Parable of the Royal Wedding' (Matthew 22:1-14), an intense, shocking, and yet beautiful message taught by Jesus. In this parable Jesus graphically illustrates God's persistent judgments on the nation of Israel for consistently rejecting God's truth and Messiah, while at the same time cleverly emphasizes God's overwhelming grace to every Jew and Gentile who embraces Christ Jesus in faith. We encourage you to listen, not only for the spiritual benefits of this parable, but for the historical ones as well.
