Bible Question (short): Can man refuse God's invitation?

Question (full): From Luke 14:16-24 (a man invites people to a feast, they refuse, so he extends the invitation to others).

Does this passage of scripture refer to election? I read it to say that the host (God) offers invitations and those invitations can be rejected. According to my Calvinist friends, the calling by God is irresitable and cannot be refused. My belief is that free will can be exercised by saying 'no' to God, and his sovereignty allows that.
