“Pipe dream!
Yeshua said that “few” would find his narrow gate.”
Matthew 7:
6 “Do not give what is holy to dogs; and do not throw your pearls before swine, or they will trample them under foot and turn and maul you.
Ask, Search, Knock
7 “Ask, and it will be given you; search, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened for you. 8 For everyone who asks receives, and everyone who searches finds, and for everyone who knocks, the door will be opened. 9 Is there anyone among you who, if your child asks for bread, will give a stone? 10 Or if the child asks for a fish, will give a snake? 11 If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good things to those who ask him!
The Golden Rule
12 “In everything do to others as you would have them do to you; for this is the law and the prophets.
The Narrow Gate
13 “Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the road is easy[d] that leads to destruction, and there are many who take it. 14 For the gate is narrow and the road is hard that leads to life, and there are few who find it.
These are all very true statements. However, If you ask, it will be given. Yes, the gate is narrow but when you ask, the guidance is given to go through the gate. The problem is, I cannot give you the secrets as you must go within and find them yourself. Scripture must not be taken out of context. It is a good policy to always read the entire chapter when you look up a scripture.
The more you focus on following our Teacher, the easier it is to find your way through the gate.
I once met an old man who I recognized by his glow that he had been through the gate. We chatted a few moments and he stated that he never went through the Dark-Night of the -Soul that many refer to as the journey to find the narrow gate. I knew he was a truthful man and had no reason to lie to me.
When I read his soul it became obvious. He was a minister who totally lived his life serving God by serving others. He had created an individual identity based upon being a “servant to God” and as such did not have to go through the hell of diminishing self to find the entrance to the gate.
The gate was wide open for him and he just sailed right through. That however, is very rare.
In order to pass through the gate, you must be “whole.” and you can only be whole by finding and removing all obstacles to Love that exist within your soul. If you are not whole, you will be turned back to do more work. On this I speak from personal experience as I had a lot of work to do to clean my house.
Perhaps you do not understand that those that reject his commandments also reject all else of his kingdom.
He would not have said that few will find his gate if it were not so.
No man has been through his gate.
John 3:13
And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.
Matthew 24:13
“He that shall endure to the end, the same shall be saved”
Are you "born of the spirit?
John 3:8
The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
Have you walked invisibly through any rooms lately?
Many of the things "Christians" say, they would not say if they knew his word.
