In today’s reading Jesus tells the parable of the great feast. The parable was really about the rejection of Jesus by the Jews. In the end, because the Jews refused to accept Jesus as Messiah, the invitation for salvation was opened to all people. The last verses of the parable plainly states the outcome in Luke 14:23-24, 23 “Then the master told the servant, ‘Go out to the roads and country and make them come, so that my house will be full. 24 I tell you, not one of those men who were invited will get a taste of my banquet.'” As a result of the Jews rejecting Christ as savior, we are the adopted children of God, and as such, we receive the same inheritance.
