Matthew 22:1-14<\/a><\/p>\nCompare 8:12; Luke 14:15-24<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Plainly, this famous parable\u00a0points to the rejection of Jesus by his fellow Jews and to their eventual replacement by the Gentiles.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
These things seem to provide types and archetypes, though, and history, as seen through a scriptural lens, tends to repeat itself (obviously with variations) in cycles. So I can\u2019t help but thinking that, in this last dispensation, too, some of the children of the Kingdom, the invited guests, the offspring \u2014 to be specific \u2014 of multigenerational Mormon families, will skip the banquet and be replaced with other guests, often from far away and very foreign places and peoples.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
So it goes, sadly. \u00a0So it seems always to have gone.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cGod is able of these stones<\/em> to raise up children unto Abraham.\u201d<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n
