JESUS TEACHES ABOUT THE WAY TO HEAVEN | |
  |
Heaven can be entered only through the narrow gate! The highway to hell is broad, and its gate is wide enough for all the multitudes who choose its easy way. But the Gateway to Life is small, and the road is narrow, and only few ever find it. Not all who sound religious are really godly people. They may refer to Me as 'Lord', but still won't get to heaven. For the decisive question is whether they obey my Father in heaven. At the Judgment many will tell me, 'Lord, Lord, we told others about You and used Your Name to cast out demons and to do many other great miracles.' But I will reply, 'You have never been Mine. Go away, for your deeds are evil.' All who listen to My instructions and follow them are wise, like a man who builds his house on solid rock. Though the rain comes in torrents, and the floods rise and the storm winds beat against his house, it won't collapse, for it is built on rock. But those who hear My instructions and ignore them are foolish, like a man who builds his house on sand. For when the rains and floods come, and storm winds beat against his house, it will fall with a mighty crash. (Matthew 7:13,14,21-27 Life Application Bible). |
