Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat. Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Matthew 7:13-14, KJV Those two roads still exist. Everybody is on one or the other. And most people are on the broad road which goes away from GOD, never passes the cross of CHRIST and leads to hell. By contrast, the narrow gate is the one-by-one entry point to eternal life, as we surrender our sins to CHRISTs blood and our lives to CHRISTS glory. Its destination is the presence of GOD. But it is a hard choice to enter and to stay on that path. Our friends and colleagues will mock us, our family may reject us and the world will think we are fools. Persecution will be normal, loneliness will be frequent, and life in the fast lane will seem to pass us by. But GOD will be our friend, JESUS will be our advocate and the Holy Spirit will be our comforter: instead of hell, we find heaven at the end of the road. Instead of isolation, we will gather with millions of other believers. So enter the narrow gate, stay on the narrow way and encourage our families, friends and colleagues to do the same.
