Matthew Week 123

Matthew 22:1 ESV

 

And again Jesus spoke to them in parables, saying,

 

 

 

Jeremiah 6:10a ESV

 

To whom shall I speak and give warning,

 

that they may hear?

 

Behold, their ears are uncircumcised,

 

they cannot listen;

 

 

 

Isaiah 56:7b ESV for my house shall be called a house of prayer

 

for all peoples.”

 

 

 

Jeremiah 7:9-11 ESV

 

9 Will you steal, murder, commit adultery, swear falsely, make offerings to Baal, and go after other gods that you have not known, 10 and then come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and say, ‘We are delivered!’—only to go on doing all these abominations? 11 Has this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, I myself have seen it, declares the Lord.

 

 

 

Acts 7:51-53 ESV

 

51 “You stiff-necked people, uncircumcised in heart and ears, you always resist the Holy Spirit. As your fathers did, so do you. 52 Which of the prophets did your fathers not persecute? And they killed those who announced beforehand the coming of the Righteous One, whom you have now betrayed and murdered, 53 you who received the law as delivered by angels and did not keep it.”

 

 

 

Matthew 21:43 ESV

 

Therefore I tell you, the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people producing its fruits.

 

 

 

Matthew 22:2-14 ESV

 

2 “The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who gave a wedding feast for his son, 3 and sent his servants to call those who were invited to the wedding feast, but they would not come. 4 Again he sent other servants, saying, ‘Tell those who are invited, “See, I have prepared my dinner, my oxen and my fat calves have been slaughtered, and everything is ready. Come to the wedding feast.”’ 5 But they paid no attention and went off, one to his farm, another to his business, 6 while the rest seized his servants, treated them shamefully, and killed them. 7 The king was angry, and he sent his troops and destroyed those murderers and burned their city. 8 Then he said to his servants, ‘The wedding feast is ready, but those invited were not worthy. 9 Go therefore to the main roads and invite to the wedding feast as many as you find.’ 10 And those servants went out into the roads and gathered all whom they found, both bad and good. So the wedding hall was filled with guests. 11 “But when the king came in to look at the guests, he saw there a man who had no wedding garment. 12 And he said to him, ‘Friend, how did you get in here without a wedding garment?’ And he was speechless. 13 Then the king said to the attendants, ‘Bind him hand and foot and cast him into the outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’ 14 For many are called, but few are chosen.”

 

 

 

Revelation 19:6-9 ESV

 

6 Then I heard what seemed to be the voice of a great multitude, like the roar of many waters and like the sound of mighty peals of thunder, crying out,

 

“Hallelujah!

 

For the Lord our God

 

the Almighty reigns.

 

7 Let us rejoice and exult

 

and give him the glory,

 

for the marriage of the Lamb has come,

 

and his Bride has made herself ready;

 

8 it was granted her to clothe herself

 

with fine linen, bright and pure”—

 

for the fine linen is the righteous deeds of the saints.

 

9 And the angel said to me, “Write this: Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.” And he said to me, “These are the true words of God.”

 

 

 

Galatians 3:26-27 NASB

 

26 For you are all sons and daughters of God through faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.

 

 

 

Matthew 13:29a ESV

 

29 “‘No,’ he answered, ‘because while you are pulling the weeds, you may uproot the wheat with them. 30 Let both grow together until the harvest.
