    Luke 13:22-30, The priority of the straight gate.

    Luke 13:22 - And he (Jesus) went through the cities and villages, teaching, and journeying toward Jerusalem.

    Luke 13:23 - Then said one unto him, Lord, are there few that be saved? And he (Jesus) said unto them,

    Now why is this person is asking this question? It is like this person is telling Jesus, "We get the idea from you, from listening to your teachings that there are not very many people that are going to be saved because you just eliminated 99% of the people. Are there few that be saved?

    Luke 13:24 - Jesus says, " Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able."

    The word "strive" is the word AGONIDZO where we get the word agonize from. Agonize to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.

    That is when this life is over. Jesus said in Matthew that the way of destruction, the gate is Broad, the road is broad. But the narrow gate and the straight road, and He says that there are very few that find it. So do you think that Jesus made it easy?



    Only those people that had a heart for Him are the only ones that are going to go through that narrow gate and walk that straight road and give up the only life that they have by surrendering their life to Christ.

    Luke 13:25 - When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are:

    Luke 13:26 - Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets.

    "Hey, didn't we eat dinner with you at the Pharisees house? And we drank in your presence, and you taught in our streets. You were at that street evangelism sermon that we heard."

    Will continue as Part 2
