FEW WHO FIND IT

Jesus said, "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. "Because narrow [is] the gate and difficult [is] the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it” Matthew 7:13-14. Jesus said enter the narrow gate and difficult is the way which leads to life. Do we understand what Jesus said? Enter the narrow gate means work, and not faith. Agree?
Brothers and Sisters. Why did Jesus say few can find the narrow gate and road that leads to eternal life? Do you know why? Because most Christians are lazy and do not want to work for their salvation. Why? Because of the teachings of Paul, aka as Saul. Has your Sunday school teacher or your Sabbath school teacher told you why? Has your pastor told you why it is difficult to get to heaven? I suspect they have not. Why? Because they are followers of Paul, aka Saul. They are blind. They follow anyone who can tickle their ears. They are not teachers like our Lord Jesus Christ. And you and I want to go to churches with real leader teachers who can explain to us the why’s. Why did Jesus say what He said? It is not easy to find heaven unless we understand what Jesus said. The demons will persuade us to believe that it is easy to get to heaven, but Jesus has never said that, never! And many Christians are too lazy to work for their salvation, again because of Paul, aka Saul. For example, read what Jesus said, "You have heard that it was said to those of old, 'You shall not commit adultery.' "But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart. "If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast [it] from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell. "And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and cast [it] from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell.” Matthew 5:27-30. Can we do them? Are we willing to do them?
"You have heard that it is said, 'An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.' "But I tell you not to resist an evil person. But whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also. "If anyone wants to sue you and take away your tunic, let him have [your] cloak also. "And whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two. "Give to him who asks you, and from him who wants to borrow from you do not turn away. Are you willing to give or loan to a homeless person $20.00? "You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' "But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, "that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. "For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? "And if you greet your brethren only, what do you do more [than others]? Do not even the tax collectors do so? "Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.” Matthew 5:38-48. Can you easily do them? Can we be perfect? Yes, I believe we can be perfect if we keep His commandments. Adam and Eve were perfect when God created them, were they not? So who says that we cannot be perfect? They became imperfect only after they ignored God's words and commandments. Little children were perfect too, were they not? Jesus said, "But Jesus called them to [Him] and said, "Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of God". Luke 18:16. How do these little children become imperfect later in life? Do you want to know why? Because their parents have never taught them to FEAR God when they were little children, and their church pastors have taught them to abolish all of God's commandments. Parents have never taught their children to FEAR God, just have "faith" in God and all that nonsense. Do you know that the demons also have faith in God? But they don't do what God tells them to do.
"Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples, 'The teachers of the law and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat. So you must be careful to do everything they tell you. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach.'" Matthew 23:1-3. Do my esteemed readers understand what Jesus said? God said that there is nothing wrong with the Torah, nothing. The problem is with the teachers of the law and the Pharisees. In today's terms we can say that the problem is with the Pastors who swallow anything that they learn or hear or read what the Biblical scholars say or write with little or no thinking.
And they preached them from the pulpit. And every church goer believes what they hear from the pulpit. Isn't that amazing what Lucifer can do to deceive us?
These are some of the things that make it difficult for us to go to heaven if we don’t do them right. These are the things that Jesus expects from us to watch if we want to go to heaven. Jesus said, "Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves." Matthew 7:15.
Finally, Jesus wants us to forgive others who have offended us. “Then Peter came to Him and said, "Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?" Jesus said to him, "I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven.” Matthew 18:21-22. Can you easily do them? Do you now understand why Jesus said, "
there are few who find it". There are few who are saved. Salvation must be earned by all except the thief on the cross. Why? Because the thief on the cross has no more time to repent! But we do.
If you want to know more about God's will, don't forget to read the Ten Commandments of God. Read also my article Pastor-Attorney to help you understand what you read. God bless!
