Kerry teaches from Luke 14:1-24, examining three pivotal conversations Jesus had during a tense dinner at a Pharisee's house. This passage shows how Jesus confronted hypocrisy, taught about humility, and revealed God's mission to fill His heavenly banquet.
Key points covered:
- Honesty shuts up hypocrisy (vv. 1-6)
- Humility is rewarded (vv. 7-14)
- Hosting is His mission (vv. 15-24)
Jesus was on His way to Jerusalem when He accepted this Sabbath dinner invitation, knowing the religious leaders were watching to trap Him. What unfolds is a masterclass in truth-telling, Kingdom values, and the stunning reality that God's invitation extends to everyone willing to come.
The parable of the great banquet reminds us that while many make excuses, God's house will be filled—and the invitation is still going out today.
Scripture: Luke 14:1-24
