Matthew 7:13-14–Aiming for the Narrow Gate

Matthew 7:13-14: "Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many.  For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few."

Although it may not need to be said, the narrow gate is Jesus.  It is through is broken body and torn flesh that God is found.  To be in the presence of the holy One requires that we step through the gate that is Christ.  There is a common lie that is spread about Christianity, that it is just one way among many.  The truth is far different.  The truth is that God has prescribed a way, the way, which is Christ Jesus.  It is faith in Jesus, He is the way to God; there is no other way.  We need to always keep this primary as we fix our gaze on the way to God!
