The narrow gate

Matthew 7:13-16, Luke 13:23-28, Messiah said we must enter through the narrow gate. This narrow gate is hard pressed meaning the way is full of afflictions, but this narrow gate leads to everlasting life once we find it.

Matthew 7:13-16 “Enter in through the narrow gate! Because the gate is wide – and the way is broad – that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter in through it. “Because the gate is narrow and the way is hard pressed (afflicted) which leads to life, and there are few who find it. “But beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are savage wolves. “By their fruits you shall know them. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes or figs from thistles?

This will be Life with our Heavenly Father Yahuah forever, with no sadness, sickness, slavery, stress, aging and pain. Very few will find this narrow gate to everlasting life. The reason why few will find this narrow gate to life is the deception by satan's lies and people who fall for his lies. The entertainment, nice to have things and riches are much more attractive then the path of righteousness. Satan uses corrupted church leaders, governments, school teachers, family and many other to draw us away from truth. Today we are taught that Heavenly Father Yahuah's law have been removed by His Son when He was on earth.

Abortion, divorce, same sex marriage, homosexual, drunkenness, idol worship, mix worship and adultery to name a few are now found to be acceptable. Man tells us that we can continue in this lawlessness as we are saved by grace alone.

Man says we are weak therefore it is impossible to keep Yahuah's laws, so we need only to confess that we believe in Him and we will be saved.

Why then would Messiah say that very few would find this narrow gate, if only we had to do is accept Him.

It is very easy to say with our lips that we believe in Yahusha the Messiah and confess that He is our savior and do nothing more. We carry on sinning because we are under grace and no longer under the law.

If this was the case then many would find the narrow gate, but this is not what Messiah says.

Do not be fooled,  Satan is lying.

Matthew 7:13-16, Luke 13:23-28, Messiah also said that the gate to destruction is very wide and many, many people will enter through it.

Luke 13:23-28 “Strive to enter through the narrow gate, because many, I say to you, shall seek to enter in and shall not be able. “When once the Master of the house has risen up and shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and knock at the door, saying, ‘Master, Master, open for us,’ and He shall answer and say to you, ‘I do not know you, where you are from,’ then you shall begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in Your presence, and You taught in our streets.’ “But He shall say, ‘I say to you I do not know you, where you are from. Depart from Me, all you workers of unrighteousness.’ “There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the reign of Elohim, and yourselves thrown outside.

Very tough words from the Messiah.

Why are many people finding this wide gate instead of the narrow gate.  Most people are looking for the entertainment gospel, where priests entertain them, make them feel good. People only want to feel good after the priest/pastor preached. It is called the feel good gospel, or prosperity gospel. I call it the bubblegum gospel.

These preachers will avoid preaching from the book of Daniel or Revelation, in fact any part in scripture where warnings are given or the verses are a bit hard on the ears.

The preacher will avoid a sermon that is hard on the soul (being hit over the knuckles) as many people will not come back because it does not feel good.

People say, Father Yahuah was only wrath in the Old Testament, and this is no longer applicable today.

Not so, you need to read your scriptures.

The priest will also not rebuke anybody that is out of line as he will lose income if that person leaves. This is the reason why so many people do not fear sinning because they are being told that forgiveness and believe is only required today.

 

People get drunk on a Friday and then confess their sins on Sunday and then everything is forgiven. The next Friday the cycle starts again, get drunk and then ask forgiveness on Sunday. This is just one example of how we think the Good News of Messiah is today.

Satan is misleading many, we need to wake up before it is too late.

Yahusha said that those that call Him Master, Master (Lord, Lord), "I never knew you, depart from Me."

The wide gate leads to destruction, the narrow gate is Messiah's way, this gate is the path to everlasting life.

 

I pray that all of us that have ears will hear.
