441. The Narrow Gate (Part 2)
Why did Jesus say the gate was narrow that leads to life? Perhaps it had something to do with the truth that Jesus Christ himself is the only way that leads to life. He is the door. No one comes to the Father except through Him. He is our entrance. Many sermons have pointed to the narrow gate as a call to a works-based performance. Before mentioning the narrow gate, Jesus had just finished a sermon covering 3 chapters in Matthew that showed the Jewish people the way of the law (works) would be impossible. Attempting to attain righteousness through works is a wide gate to enter but it brings destruction, not life.
