Expelled

The term "expelled" in the Bible often conveys the idea of being forcibly removed or cast out from a place or position, typically due to disobedience or unworthiness in the eyes of God. One of the most notable biblical references is the expulsion of Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden after their disobedience to God (Genesis 3:23-24). This act symbolizes not only a physical removal from paradise but also a spiritual separation from God’s presence due to sin.Another significant instance is found in the New Testament when Jesus expels demons from individuals, demonstrating His authority over spiritual entities (Mark 1:34, Luke 8:2). In these contexts, "expelled" reflects both a physical action and a spiritual reality, illustrating the consequences of sin and the power of Christ to deliver individuals from spiritual bondage. The concept serves as a reminder of the holiness of God and the need for repentance and restoration in the relationship between humanity and the divine.

Expelled From a Royal Feast

By J. Glyn Owen

1.5K36:28

MAT 22:1MAT 28:19LUK 9:2

In this sermon, the preacher focuses on the theme of the unheeded invitation found in the early verses of the passage. He explains that the call to the feast was rejected by those who made light of it and chose to prioritize their own interests. Despite this rejection, the grace of God is highlighted as he extends a second invitation to sinners who have defied him. The sermon also emphasizes the tragic consequences of rejecting God's invitation, drawing parallels to the historical events of the Romans' destruction of Jerusalem in 70 AD. The preacher concludes by highlighting the ongoing relevance of this message, as people continue to ignore God's invitation today.
