Two Ways of Life

"Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it." ~ Matthew 7:13-14

Salvation is given to us by God's grace. Simple many may think it is, but it is not easy.

Salvation calls us to repent of our sins, calls us to remove everything from our finite minds that we thought was truth and learn the truth of God.

It means that we must submit ourselves to God completely and start a new life with Him. We must obey God by reading the bible. It calls for knowledge of the truth and a willingness to submit to His will.

The narrow gate symbolizes the difficulty of truly following Christ. The way is broad symbolizes other types of religion and how so many follow man made ideologies, religions, etc.

Following the narrow gate may seem too hard for you to commit to today. However, once we receive Christ as our Lord and Savior, He gives us the Holy Spirit who helps us stay on the right path. The Spirit of God puts a hunger in your heart to obtain knowledge of the truth, to pray, to change your life and live according to the Word of God.

Let God help you today enter through the narrow gate and enjoy the peace that only God can provide.
