Bible says enter you in at the straight gate, but what does that mean? It says enter you in at the straight gate S-t-r-a-i-t So the word straight means narrow a narrow passage So the Bible saying enter you in at the straight gate for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leadeth to destruction and many there be which go in there at because straight is the gate and narrow is the way which leadeth unto life and Few there be that find it So according to this verse Jesus is saying that there's few people that are actually going to be saved Here in the book of Luke It says then said one unto him Lord are there few that be saved and he said unto them strive to enter in at the straight Gate for many I say unto you will seek to enter in and shall not be able So again, Jesus is saying that there's few that are saved Here in Matthew chapter 7. He says not everyone that saith unto me Lord Lord shall enter into the kingdom of heaven But he that doeth the will of my father Which is in heaven see a lot of people look at this verse and they say see you have to do the will Of the father saying that you have to do works, but that's not what it's saying says do the will of my father Which is in heaven. What is the will of the father? Well in the book of John it tells us it says and this is the will of him that sent me That everyone which seeth the son and believeth on him may have Everlasting life and I will raise him up at the last day So the will of the father is that everyone will believe on the son and get saved that everyone will believe in Jesus that's what the will of the father is see that salvation has nothing to do with works It's all about believing on the Son of God says right here many will say to me in that day Lord Lord have we not prophesied in thy name and in thy name have cast out devils and in thy name done many wonderful Works and then will I profess unto them? I never knew you depart from me ye that work iniquity So the reason these people in Matthew 7 are not saved and Jesus said I never knew you because they were never saved Once you're saved, you cannot lose your salvation The reason they're not saved is because they don't believe they haven't put their trust in Jesus to save them Yeah, they know the name of Jesus because they say Lord Lord They know who he is, but are they trusting in Jesus to save them or are they trusting in their works? Well, it's very clear that they're trusting in their many wonderful works to get them into heaven and works has nothing to do with Salvation the Bible says for by grace you saved through faith and that not of yourselves It is the gift of God not of works lest any man should boast Salvation has nothing to do with works Here's the most famous verse in the whole Bible for God So loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life Again, it's not whosoever does many wonderful works. No, it's whosoever believeth in him What must I do to be saved believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved See Jesus is the only one that can save us We cannot save ourselves even so then at this present time also, there is a remnant according to the election of grace So we're saved by grace not of works. And if by grace then is it no more of works Otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then it is no more grace Otherwise work is no more work. So Bob was very clear that it has nothing to do with works Jesus did all the work on the cross We just have to put our faith and trust in him to save us You know That's why Jesus said there are few that are saved because so many people the majority of people just cannot Understand this they just cannot accept the fact that Jesus paid it all They want to do something to earn their salvation And that's why it's important that we go and tell people about Jesus and tell them about the free gift of salvation Then saith he unto his disciples that the harvest truly is plenteous But the laborers are few pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest that he will send forth laborers into his harvest So it's important that we go and tell people about Jesus Jesus said go ye therefore and teach all nations baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son of the Holy Ghost Teaching them to observe all things Whatsoever I have commanded you that's the entire Bible and lo I am with you always Even unto the end of the world. Amen So Jesus commands us to go and tell people about him. That's why soul winning is so important It's a command from Jesus Bible says for whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? So before you can call upon the name of the Lord you have to believe in the name of the Lord You have to believe in Jesus believe he's the Son of God and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard Lost people need to hear about Jesus and how shall they hear without a preacher? People need to go to them and tell them about Jesus and how shall they preach except they be sent That's why it's important that you go to a soul winning church that will send you Soul winning to preach the gospel to the lost as it is written How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace and bring glad tidings of good things Soul winning is so important and it's a command from Jesus That's why if you're not going to a soul winning church I highly encourage you to find one in your area so important that we go to church It says not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together and notice there's no exception here It says not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together as the manner of some is So yes, some people do forsake the assembly But there's no exception given in this verse to forsake the assembly says not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together as the manner of some is but Exhorting one another and so much the more as you see the day approaching So it's it's even more important today in the end times in which we're living in to go to church Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together That's a command from God go to church and go to a soul winning church That goes and tells people about Jesus and daily in the temple and in every house They ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ, and that's exactly what we need to do today We need to go to church and we need to go out and tell people about Jesus Christ so that they can be saved
