Togas Gospodarot se nalutil i naredil da otidat slugite po patistata i da gi pokanat site koi ke gi najdat. Pokanetite sme nie site koi sme krsteni i se narekuvame Hristijani, koi go slusame slovoto Bozjo koe postojano ne hrani i kani da odime po Hristoviot pat, po Bozijot pat i da bideme negovi gosti vo Carstvoto Bozjo. No cestopati nasite zelbi i potrebi ni davaat izgovori da ne se odzivame na taa pokana od Boga, zatoa Bog veli mnogumina se povikani, odnosno znaat za Boga no malcemina se izbrani odnosno ja prifakaat Bozjata pokana da bideme so Nego vo Carstvoto Bozjo. ⛪☦💒
On the 28th Sunday after Pentecost, we reflected on the Gospel reading concerning the Lord’s invitation to a banquet. Many who were initially invited offered various reasons for their inability to attend the celebration. Consequently, the Lord, in his displeasure, dispatched his servants to gather anyone they encountered from the roads to partake in the festivities. As individuals who identify as Christians, have been baptised, and are familiar with the word of God, we too have received an invitation. However, we sometimes find ourselves making excuses that prevent us from adhering to God’s will and progressing towards the Kingdom of Heaven, to which we have been called. This illustrates the divine message that while many are invited, or possess an understanding of God and His salvation, only a select few are chosen, those who earnestly fulfill His will and orient their lives towards the Kingdom of God.
