The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg

In this discourse, Steve Gregg unpacks a parable in Matthew 22 about a king who invites guests to his son's wedding banquet, only to be rejected by some. Gregg offers a three-part interpretation of the parable, which he relates to the Resurrection and Christ's second coming. He also explains the clothing metaphor within the parable, emphasizing that it is not about one's own good deeds but rather God's provision. Wrapping up, Gregg touches on the issue of rendering unto Caesar and God, explaining that it is not a matter of a "strange mix" but rather a call to be responsible citizens and obedient to God.
