[edit] Summary
[edit] Plot
It’s another episode of “Adventures in the Bible!” This time, Whit begins by reading a letter from Brooke. It states: “Dear Mr. Whittaker, I have a friend who says that everybody is going to go to heaven no matter how good or bad they are, because God is love, and so He can’t send us to hell. I say my friend’s crazy. Who’s right?”
Whit answers the question by narrating his own version of Jesus’ parable of the marriage feast. The point is well made: God gives us many chances to come to Him. If we refuse Him and reject His Son, God can--and will--punish us. But there is hope. “The wages of sin is death, but the [free] gift of God is eternal life in Jesus Christ our Lord” (Romans 6:23).
[edit] Discussion Questions
- Why wouldn’t the duke, earl, or countess accept the king’s invitation?
- Why did the vulgar man refuse to wear the king’s wedding clothes?
- Do you know anyone who believes what Brooke’s friend believes, that because God is love, He won’t send us to hell?
- What would you say to that person?
- How do you feel about God sending those who reject Jesus to hell?

[edit] Notes
- The Duke of Terra quotes Gone With the Wind, saying 'Land's the only thing worth living for-worth dyin for! That's why they call me the Duke of Terra!'
