Conviction

"The kingdom of heaven is like a king who prepared a great wedding banquet for his son. He sent his servants to those who had been invited to tell them to come, but they refused.
"Then he sent more servants to tell them that everything was ready and to come to the banquet. But they paid no attention and went off- one to his field, another to his business. The rest seized his servants, mistreated and killed them. The king was enraged and sent his army to destroy the murderers and burn their city.
"Then he said to the servants, 'The wedding banquet is ready, but those invited did not deserve to come. Go to the street corners and invite anyone you can find.' So the servants gathered all the people they could find, good and bad, and the wedding hall was filled with guests.
"But when the king came in to see the guests, he noticed a man there who was not wearing wedding clothes. 'Friend,' the king said, 'how did you get in here without wedding clothes?' And the king had him tied hand and foot and thrown outside where there was weeping and gnashing of teeth.
"For many are invited, but few are chosen."
Matthew 22:2-14
