The gospel is preached (announced) to those who believe it. It is not a job offer for the self-righteous to save themselves.Nope, Mt 22:14 doesn't prove a Calvinistic view of Predestination. The context speaks of a man invited to a wedding, but showed up not wearing wedding clothes. Not indication in the text that God controls people in puppetlike fashion to do what they do.
Many are invited to receive Christ. (It's called "Evangelism") But not everyone chooses to believe it. Those who genuinely believe it are the chosen. Upon coming to faith in Christ they are eternally secure, predestined for heaven and predestined to be conformed to the image of Christ.
