Matthew 7:13-14: 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 straight is the gate, and narrow is the way which leadeth unto Life, and few there be that find it.
There are Two Paths: Which one are you on? Or which will you choose: We make choices every day: We will do this or we will do that: We want that which is good, but at times these choices that we make are very detrimental to our welfare: With every choice there follows a consequence, both in the physical as well as in the spiritual life:
God has given lots of instructions in the Bible and as generous Father eager to protect and guide us, He says that if we will hearken to His Voice, it will bring to us Life and not death: Deuteronomy 30:19-20: I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you Life and death, blessing and cursing: Therefore choose Life that both thou and thy seed may live: That thou mayest love The Lord Thy God, and that thou mayest obey His Voice and that thou mayest cleave unto Him, for He is thy Life, and the length of thy days: That thou mayest dwell in the land which The Lord swear unto thy fathers, to Abraham to Isaac, and to Jacob to give them: God cares so much, He is counselling all to choose Life:
The wrong Path of Life, is broad and leads to destruction, like the highway, many lanes very fast and wide, leading to death and hell: Most choose that Path not realizing the dangers until it is too late: You cannot make a U-Turn:
There is another Path of Life: The strait gate and narrow is the way which leads to Life and there be few that find it: It is narrow because it is only one way leading to Salvation and that way is Jesus: John 14:6: Jesus said I Am The Way, The Truth and The Life: No man comes to The Father but by Me: Acts 4:12: There is Salvation in No Other Name, The Name of Jesus:
Matthew 7:15: Jesus warns of false prophets, those who oppose Him and the things of God:
Led by the prince of darkness, who will blind the eyes: Can you imagine being blind and in darkness? that is double blindness: But Jesus opens blind eyes, physical and spiritual:
He encourages His listeners to seek the narrow way: It is less travelled and few there be that find it: Seek God’s will in all aspects of life: It leads to Eternal Life, a life of Purpose, Joy and Fulfillment in His Presence:
This is The True Path of Life: The Holy Spirit will help us as we travel: There are valleys deep and mountains steep: Many has gone on before us, who have travelled this Path: They have made it and are cheering us on: If you will hear His Voice, harden not your heart: Today choose the straight and narrow way: None on This Path of Life has regretted their choice: Tell someone: Many are seeking if we do not tell them, then who?
