MANY ARE CALLED BUT FEW ARE CHOSEN Polloi gar eisin kletoi oligoi de eklektoi - many are called but few are chosen. Jesus made this statement in Matthew 22;14, after giving the parable of the marriage feast, in which the king invited his subjects to the marriage of his son, and one was found without a wedding garment. The king ordered he should be cast into outer darkness, after he had asked him why he was without a wedding garment. The wedding garment is the one we obtain by Christ, the Son of the King, However this guy had his own righteousness, just as many do today. We say Jesus has taken all our sins away, however, people believe in their own righteousness, and not in the righteousness of Christ, the one we obtain through him..
