He (Kuyper) means "invite" in the slangy sense, like when someone says "If
you leave your valuables in your unlocked car, you're just inviting someone
to steal them".  Pretty common usage, but of course, no one actually thinks
that you sent out hand engraved invitations to the thieves of the world to
come and share in your bounty.

That's the sense in which Kuyper was speaking.
