Guest DRS81 Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Matt 7:14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. It means there will be more of a falling away than revival, more people going to hell than heaven. Matt 19:24 Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God."

I am not referring to nonbelievers because that is a given that they would travel the wide road.They would not think of taking another route.But I am referring to Christians.

Yeah I would say repentance is the only way to receive the blessings you were meant for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not referring to nonbelievers because that is a given that they would travel the wide road.They would not think of taking another route.But I am referring to Christians. You might not be, but in terms of contrast Jesus Christ most certainly was Look back to verse 13 "Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it." (Mat 7:13 NKJ) The broad way is the one that leads to eternal destruction, in contrast to that the narrow way is one that leads to life (Salvation). He then goes on to warn about false prophets, no because they can cause on to loose salvation, but because they turn people away from the path to life.
