The Gate and Way That Lead to Life #11

“Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it.

“Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.” (Matt. 7:13-14)

In this stunning word picture Jesus describes the nature of radical, biblical conversion and discipleship. Only the narrow gate and the restricted way lead to life, and only a few are found on that path.

The gate is so narrow that we must drop the baggage of our self-righteousness, self-will, sin, and love of the world. The way is so compressed that we must leave off those patterns and take up the ways of Jesus Christ. The issue at stake is nothing less than eternal destruction or eternal life!

This is a compelling and searching series for every person who truly wants to avoid the destruction awaiting those on the broad way and to gain the eternal life to which Christ in His mercy points us.
