Open House 2026 Message 02 of 02
There is Room at the Table
Pastor Anthony King· October 18, 2026
Luke 14:15-24
In this sermon, “There Is Room at the Table,” based on Luke 14:12–24, we learn that God has already made a way for us to come to Him through His grace, and we do not have to earn our place at His table. The message reminds us that even good things can keep us from Jesus when we allow them to take first place in our hearts, and that God invites even those the world overlooks to come to Him. Since there is still room at the table but the invitation will not last forever, we are challenged to come to Jesus today and invite others to come with us.
“And when one of them that sat at meat with him heard these things, he said unto him, Blessed is he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God.”
Luke 14:15

God has already prepared everything the invitation promises.
Good things become deadly things when they keep you from Jesus.
God sends for the people everybody else passes over.
There is still room, but the invitation will not stand open forever.
Come to Jesus as you are.
Don’t just come to the table, bring somebody with you.
15And when one of them that sat at meat with him heard these things, he said unto him, Blessed is he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God. 16Then said he unto him, A certain man made a great supper, and bade many: 17And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that were bidden, Come; for all things are now ready. 18And they all with one consent began to make excuse. The first said unto him, I have bought a piece of ground, and I must needs go and see it: I pray thee have me excused. 19And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove them: I pray thee have me excused. 20And another said, I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come. 21So that servant came, and shewed his lord these things. 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 hither the poor, and the maimed, and the halt, and the blind. 22And the servant said, Lord, it is done as thou hast commanded, and yet there is room. 23And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled. 24For I say unto you, That none of those men which were bidden shall taste of my supper. Luke 14:15-24
