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.”

Entering the Narrow Gate
“I know you inside and out, and find little to my liking. You’re not cold, you’re not hot – far better to either be cold or hot! You’re stale. You’re stagnant. You make me want to vomit. You brag, “I’m rich, I’ve got it made, I need nothing from anyone,” oblivious that in fact you’re a pitiful blind beggar, threadbare and homeless.”
REVELATION 3:15-17

“Nothing would be more calamitous than to meditate long and hard on Matthew 5 to 7 and then resolve to improve just a
little. The discipleship which Jesus requires is absolute and radical. A
person either enters the kingdom or he does not. There is no third alternative.
Nothing, nothing at all, could have more crucial significance than following Jesus.”

And after they preached the gospel to that city and had made many disciples, they returned […]
strengthening the souls of the disciples, encouraging them to
continue in the faith, and saying, “Through many tribulations we must
enter the Kingdom of God.”
