Understanding the meaning of the parable of the wedding banquet. Explanation, reflection and moral lesson.

Jesus frequently compares the kingdom of God with parables or stories. The kingdom of God is like yeast…(Matthew 13:33), jesus in this parable explain that the kingdom is progressive; the kingdom of god is like a hidden treasure (Matthew 13:44-46), the kingdom is self knowledge, self discovery.
The parables are designed to describe a characteristic of the kingdom of God. The kingdom of God is in practical terms the domain of mercy, the empire of godliness, the government of the perfections of God.
Jesus uses the parable of the wedding banquet to illustrate what the kingdom of God means, this parable is similar to the Parable of the Sower; like the seed in the parable of the sower, the king's son personifies the word of god, the wisdom and in front of this word there are different types of people (natural man, spiritual man and rational man):
"Jesus spoke to them again in parables, saying: "The kingdom of heaven is like a king who prepared a wedding banquet for his son. He sent his servants to those who had been invited to the banquet to tell them to come, but they refused to come.
Then he sent some more servants and said, "Tell those who have been invited that I have prepared my dinner: My oxen and fattened cattle have been butchered, and everything is ready. Come to the wedding banquet."
But they paid no attention and went off - one to his field, another to his business. The rest seized his servants, mistreated them and killed them. The king was enraged. He sent his army and destroyed those murderers and burned their city.
Then he said to his servants, "The wedding banquet is ready, but those I invited did not deserve to come. So go to the street corners and invite to the banquet anyone to find." So the servants went out into the streets and gathered all the people they could find, the bad as well as the good, and the wedding hall was filled with guests.
But when the king came in to see the guests, he noticed a man there who was not wearing wedding clothes. He asked, "How did you get in here without wedding clothes, friend? The man was speechless.
Then the king told the attendants, "Tie him hand and foot, and throw him outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth"
"For many are invited, but a few are chosen""" Matthew 22:1-14

In the parable the men who do not attend the wedding banquet are the natural men, the rational man instead has an ambiguous attitude, is tie hand and foot and cast. The spiritual man are the chosen.
