Jesus Christ our Lord described some of these excuses in the parable of the Great Supper. One man said, &quot;I have bought a piece of land,&quot; another said, &quot;I have married a wife,&quot; another said, &quot;I have bought five yoke of oxen.&quot; These were the excuses rendered and they were accepted, insomuch that the Lord said: &quot;There shall none of them eat of My Supper.&quot; There are many other excuses which we hear on every corner. One man says, &quot;I am too great a sinner to be saved,&quot; another one says, &quot;I am good enough already.&quot; One man says, &quot;God is too good to damn me,&quot; another, &quot;I am too good to be damned.&quot; One man says, &quot;There are too many hypocrites in the church,&quot; overlooking the fact that hypocrites are all under the condemnation of Christ.<\/p>\n<p>The purpose of this lesson is twofold. First, we want to present the claims of Christ, and then we want to show why men reject those claims.<\/p>\n<p>Autor: R.E.
