Jesus ends His sermon on the Mount with choices. These choices will lead us to a final destination. Today, we discover that Jesus identifies 2 gates that have 2 roads with 2 different crowds and lead to 2 different destinations. What gate you choose to enter will determine the road and destination. Can we get off the wide and easy road? Yes we can! But we must then go through the narrow gate with a difficult path. The Christian life is not easy! It’s fraught with difficulty. Salvation is not hard. We are saved by God’s grace at the expense of Jesus Christ. It is His work at Calvary and tomb that brings us salvation. The hardship is taking this gate and road that is contrary to the nature of sin and the wisdom of the world. Come and hear the word of the Lord! Let it penetrate your soul, that you may examine what gate you have entered.
