Story behind the song
15 Now when one of those who sat at the table with Him heard these things, he said to Him, "Blessed [is] he who shall eat bread in the kingdom of God!" 16 Then He said to him, "A certain man gave a great supper and invited many, 17 "and sent his servant at supper time to say to those who were invited, 'Come, for all things are now ready.' 18 "But they all with one [accord] began to make excuses. The first said to him, 'I have bought a piece of ground, and I must go and see it. I ask you to have me excused.' 19 "And another said, 'I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to test them. I ask you to have me excused.' 20 "Still another said, 'I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.' 21 "So that servant came and reported these things to his master. Then the master of the house, being angry, said to his servant, 'Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in here [the] poor and [the] maimed and [the] lame and [the] blind.' 22 "And the servant said, 'Master, it is done as you commanded, and still there is room.' 23 "Then the master said to the servant, 'Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel [them] to come in, that my house may be filled. 24 'For I say to you that none of those men who were invited shall taste my supper.' " Luke 14:15-24
I don't think it's too far fetched to say that God's whole purpose in creation was to obtain a bride for His Son. All of eternity will give those of us who've accepted that invitation the privilege of loving and serving Him in the pureness that He deserves. Mike
Lyrics
God Sent An Invitation
First Verse
Has anyone told you you’ve been invited
To a supper for a King
Or maybe you missed it, it’s not too late
He’s still arranging everything
Chorus
God sent an invitation, He sent it with His Son
Written on a wooden cross, signed with His own blood
There with arms wide open, addressed to everyone
God sent an invitation, won’t you come
Second Verse
Has anyone told you of living water
You can drink from now on
Or how He’s offered life eternal
To those who’ll trust in what He’s done
Repeat Chorus
Bridge
There is a way to Heaven, Jesus is that way
He wants you to be there, He offers you His grace
Repeat Chorus
