 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Matthew 7:13-14
We are living in an age of almost total unbelief as far as the Bible is concerned. There is a lot of religion but it is not according to “thus saith the Lord”. In this scripture, there are just two gates. There is a narrow gate and there is a wide gate. There are not a multitude of gates. The narrow gate leads to where? It leads to Heaven. The wide gate leads to where? It leads to destruction and Hell. There are not a multitude of ways to get to Heaven. You have to go through one gate to get on the narrow way that leads to Heaven. |

Edith Tolbert: I had been raised religious all my life, going to church every week. I thought I was a christian because I measured myself by every one else in the religious organization. When I was 23 years old we move to Sacramento and God led me to the Church of God in Carmichael. I heard old time gospel preaching and saw people really living what the Bible said. God convicted my soul and showed me I needed to repent of all sin and be saved. I counted the cost and decided I wanted the truth and I wanted to go to heaven. I repented of all bitterness, bad attitudes, rensentments and sin. God saved me and put peace and joy in my heart. I have never regretted the day I gave up sin and religion and found real salvation. It is a joy to see young and old alike saved and growing in the Lord. It is a blessing working for God in Bible studies and the ongoing work of the kingdom of God.
