Matthew 22:1-14 describes the fate of those led to disobey Any Words of He Who Fulfilled the Prophecies for the past 2,000 years: “Jesus again in reply spoke to the chief priests and the elders of the people in parables, saying: ‘The Kingdom of Heaven may be likened to a King who gave a wedding feast for His Son. He dispatched His servants to summon the invited guests to the feast, but they refused to come.’ That disobedience describes every Protestant for the past 2,000 years.
Then, Jesus explained that God would give them a “second chance”: “A second time He sent other servants, (They were His first Catholic Pope, Bishops, priests, and religious.) saying, ‘Tell those invited: ‘Behold, I have prepared My banquet, My calves and fattened cattle are killed, and everything is ready; come to the feast.'”
Then, Jesus described one kind of Protestant: “Some ignored the invitation and went away, one to his farm, another to his business.” The second kind of Protestants were those desperate to avoid obedience to He Who Fulfilled over 300 Prophecies because their incomes and positions were threatened. They are described and predicted in this Prophecy: “The rest laid hold of His servants, mistreated them, and killed them.” Those Protestants did that to as many Catholics as they could!
How did The King respond? “The King was enraged and sent His troops, destroyed those murderers, and burned their city.” That specific Prophecy predicted the total destruction of Jerusalem in 70 AD and the killing of two million early anti-Catholic Protestants by Roman Legions in the century after Jesus. Everyone who knows History sees that Prophecy was both specific and fulfilled!
Then, those whose souls could get into Heaven were described: “Then The King said to his servants, ‘The feast (Prophesying that The Body and Blood of Jesus would be provided by The Miracle of Transubstantiation at every Catholic Mass.) is ready, but those who were invited (The First Two Protestant groups.) were not worthy to come. Go out, therefore, into the main roads and invite to the feast whomever you find.’
The servants (His Catholic Popes, Bishops, priests, religious, and followers.) went out into the streets and gathered all they found, bad and good alike, and the hall was filled with guests.”
Then, a third kind of Protestant is described! “But when The King came in to meet the guests, He saw a man there not dressed in a wedding garment. He said to him, ‘My friend, how is it that you came in here without a wedding garment?’ But he was reduced to silence.”
What is the eternal fate of that kind of Protestant? “Then The King said to His attendants, ‘Bind his hands and feet, and cast him into the darkness outside, where there will be wailing and grinding of teeth.’ Many are invited, but few are chosen.”
Catholics are blessed to gratefully say: “Thank You, Your Majesty!” for letting me be both “invited” and “chosen” to obey The Church-Creating Invitation of The King to every person on earth: “And I say unto you thou art Peter and on this rock I build My Church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I give you the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven.”
