On this 28th day of Common Time, the evangelist Matthew, we are presented with the text that speaks of the Feast of the Covenant.

God to invite everyone to an alliance. From Abram, Moses and the Prophets, but the hard-headed people refuse to keep the covenant with God. In this way, the people of Israel, who have always been the elect people, cease to be so with the birth of Jesus, who inaugurates the NEW ETERNAL ALLIANCE!

Jesus spoke to the chief priests and elders of the people, who were among the elite of Israel. He makes the comparison with the Kingdom of Heaven, as being like a King who gave a banquet, but the guests did NOT SPARE !!!

Then he sends his servants at the crossroads to invite everyone, without discrimination, good and bad, rich or poor to attend his wedding banquet.

But to enter this BANQUET it was imperative to have the "Wedding Dress". What does this wedding garment consist of? It is the dress of law and, above all, of JUSTICE, of solidarity, of sharing. Without this you can not enter the banquet of the Kingdom of God!
God wants to save everyone. But as the human being is endowed with free will, he who chooses which way to go. It can either opt for good (justice and law) or evil (death).

With Jesus, the people of Israel cease to be the chosen people! The people are now called: PEOPLE OF GOD! (where all are called to attend the Kingdom banquet!)

"But God never abandons the covenant with mankind. With Jesus, God renewed this covenant, extending the invitation to all who were at the crossroads of the world, wicked and good, sinners and non-Jews. Today we are all invited to the feast of the Covenant. " ( 1 )

My brothers and sisters in Christ, what is your decision? Wearing the bridal dress or opting for the values ​​of the world? What is your choice?
Choose the best: the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, in the person of the Master Jesus Christ! Amen!

Let it come down upon you, the blessing of Almighty God: + Father, + Son and + Holy Spirit, amen!
