MATTHEW 7:13-14

13  “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.  14 For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.  

ENTER THROUGH THE NARROW GATE

We make decisions every day.. According to www.psychology.com average person makes 35,000 choices per day. But no decision is as important as the one Jesus highlights in Matthew 7:13-14: “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.” 

We make decisions every day.. According to www.psychology.com average person makes 35,000 choices per day. But no decision is as important as the one Jesus highlights in Matthew 7:13-14: “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.” 

We all stand at a spiritual crossroads, and there are two paths in front of us. The wide path leads to hell. The second, narrow path leads to eternal life in heaven.

33  Ang mga bagay na ito ay sinabi ko sa inyo upang sa akin ay magkaroon kayo ng kapayapaan . Sa sanlibutan ay mayroon kayong paghihirap . Lakasan ninyo ang inyong loob , napagta­gumpayan ko na ang sanlibutan . JOHN 16: 33

Huwag magulumihanan ang inyong puso : magsisampalataya kayo sa Dios, magsisampalataya naman kayo sa akin. JOHN 14: 1

Mga kapatid ko, ariin ninyong buong kagalakan , kung kayo'y mangahulog sa sarisaring tukso ; Yamang nalalaman na ang pagsubok sa inyong pananampalataya ay gumagawa ng pagtitiis . At inyong pabayaan na ang pagtitiis ay magkaroon ng sakdal na gawa , upang kayo'y maging sakdal at ganap , na walang anoman kakulangan . Santiago 1:2-4

Most people are good people and good people go to Heaven.

In Matthew 7:13-14 Jesus teaches that there are in fact two paths with two different destinations – one leading to eternal life and the other to eternal judgment

THE PATH TO DESTRUCTION

THE PATH TO DESTRUCTION A wide gate – The first path is entered by a wide gate. This is an entrance that everyone sees and that most people choose.

THE PATH TO DESTRUCTION An easy way – The wide gate leads to an easy path. That’s not to say that life is always easy, but it’s a path that doesn’t require repentance, self-denial, sacrifice or suffering in the way the other path does.

THE PATH TO DESTRUCTION A well-travelled way – Jesus says that many (most) enter the through the wide gate and travel the easy way. This is the path we are all born on and most never leave.

THE PATH TO DESTRUCTION Leads to destruction – This is the path that most are following, and yet it’s a path that leads to eternal destruction.

THE PATH TO DESTRUCTION Leads to destruction – – there is eternal judgment for all who die apart from Christ

MATTHEW 25:41 41  “ Sasabihin naman niya sa mga nasa kaliwa , ‘ Lumayo kayo sa harapan ko, kayong mga isinumpa ! Doon kayo sa apoy na di namamatay na inihanda para sa diyablo at sa kanyang mga kampon .

REVELATION 14:11 11  Ang  usok mula sa apoy na nagpapahirap sa kanila ay patuloy na tataas magpakailanman . Araw at gabi ay maghihirap nang walang pahinga ang mga sumamba sa halimaw at sa kanyang larawan , at ang mga natatakan ng kanyang pangalan .”

THE ETERNAL LIFE

ETERNAL LIFE A narrow gate – What we learn from Scripture is that the narrow gate is Christ Himself. It is only through Christ and His work on the cross that we can be forgiven and welcomed onto the path toward life

JOHN 14:6 6  Sumagot   si Jesus, “ Ako ang daan , ang katotohanan , at ang buhay . Walang makakapunta sa Ama kundi sa pamamagitan ko.

ACTS 4:12 12  Sa kanya lamang matatagpuan ang kaligtasan , sapagkat walang ibang pangalan sa buong daigdig na ibinigay ng Diyos sa mga tao upang tayo ay maligtas .”

ETERNAL LIFE A hard way – The path toward life is a way of repentance , self-denial, sacrifice and suffering

LUKE 18:29-30 29  Sinabi sa kanila ni Jesus, “ Tandaan ninyo : kapag iniwan ninuman ang kanyang tahanan , asawa , mga kapatid , mga magulang , o mga anak alang-alang sa kaharian ng Diyos ,  30  tatanggap siya ng higit pa sa panahong ito . At sa panahong darating , tatanggap siya ng buhay na walang hanggan .”

LUKE 18:29-30 20  Alalahanin   ninyo ang sinabi kong ito : walang aliping higit kaysa kanyang panginoon . Kung ako'y inusig nila , uusigin din nila kayo. Kung sinunod nila ang aking sinabi , susundin rin nila ang inyong sasabihin .  21  Subalit ang lahat ng ito'y gagawin nila sa inyo dahil sa akin, sapagkat hindi nila kilala ang nagsugo sa akin.

ETERNAL LIFE A less-travelled way – Because the narrow way is hard, there are few who will find and follow this path. Most will not choose to humbly repent and submit to following Christ

MATTHEW 22:14 14  Pagkatapos nito'y sinabi ni Jesus, “ Marami ang tinatawag , ngunit kakaunti ang pinili .”

ETERNAL LIFE • Leads to life – While the way is narrow and hard, the end of this path is eternal life (John 3:16). This reality should motivate us to follow Christ and compel us to tell others about their need to trust Him.
