“A Great Supper” Luke 14:15-24

As Old as Adam and Eve Genesis 3:12-13 “The woman made me” “You caused it” “The devil made me do it”

As Sad as Aaron at Mount Sinai Exodus 32:24 “They gave me the gold, and I threw it into the fire, and out came this calf”

As Transparent as Moses at the Burning Bush “Who am I (Ex. 3:11)?” “What will I tell them (Ex. 3:13)?” “They will not believe me” (Ex. 4:1) “I don’t speak well” (Ex. 4:10) “I don’t want to go” (Ex. 4:13)

As Costly as the Excuses Offered at the Great Supper “I’m too involved with my business” (Luke 14:18) “I’m too wrapped up in my stuff” (Luke 14:19) “I’m too busy with my family” (Luke 14:20)

Point of The Parable “For I say unto you, that none of those men which were bidden shall taste of my supper” Luke 14:24

Remember… “If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloak for their sin” John 15:22
