Podcasts about strait gate

The Bible speaks very simply of two roads and two destinies. One road is broad and very crowded. It has room for everybody's opinions and ideas. It has room for every pleasure and distraction you can think of. Unfortunately, multitudes choose this road. It's easy and it steadily flows along day after day as we pursue our own desires. However, the other road is narrow. There's no room for a hundred different viewpoints and a thousand different pleasure trips – there's only room for God's way, for righteousness and truth. Unlike the other road, this one goes up – upwards to heaven, and it's a road we'd all be wise to choose. 

Matthew 7:13-14 — Did Jesus shape the gospel to fit humanity, or did He shape humanity to fit His gospel? In this sermon on Matthew 7:13–14 titled “The Strait Gate…” that Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones preached to an American audience in 1969, he addressed the great charge often brought against Christians for being narrow. He preaches of the importance of guarding against becoming too “wide.” The church has been so anxious to please modern humanity that the gospel message has been lost. Dr. Lloyd-Jones declares that Christians must boldly stand their ground as being narrow Christians. Christ delighted and exalted in this idea of being narrow. Why did Christ choose to call His way of living “narrow”? The Bible deliberately specializes in one subject—the human soul. The gospel is intensely personal. The world resents narrowness, but it is this very narrowness that would lead to paradise. Salvation is “narrow” through the death of one man. No one can meet God without the cross of Christ. Turn to Him and He will receive His people unto Himself. Straight is the gate and narrow is the way that leads to life.

The difference between agonizing and casually seeking to enter the kingdom of God. Those who agonize through prayer, laboring in His work, battling against sin and who engage in faith will be the ones who enter in as good and faithful servants.

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...   Matthew 7   13 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:   14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.  

Sunday Morning

Mary chats with TA McMahon of The Berean Call about the nature of so many false teachings today, and the various reactions by the church as to what, if anything, can be done about it. Why is there so much apostasy? The bible says we have a choice, that we must choose to enter by the strait gate, and yet "few there be that find it."  When the church started to go through many different phases in the last 30 years or so, many believers didn't follow up on warnings, and as such it has become very difficult to keep up. And to say there is sorcery in the church, that is something many may not understand; but through the New Age and experientially-based Christianity, this has indeed become the case. Times ahead may get tougher, so we have to ask ourselves, are we standing firm on the foundation of truth?   Shameless plug for swag for our listeners/donors! https://www.redpillprints.com/stand-up-for-the-truth - Thanks for YOUR Support!

James and Jonathan are excited to kick off the Theology on the Go book club today with their good friend Jeffrey Stivason, coming together to discuss The Pilgrim's Progress by John Bunyan. Jeff is pastor of Grace Reformed Presbyterian Church and a professor at Reformed Presbyterian Theological Seminary.  In this episode, they will discuss the book's first section, from The City of Destruction until The Wicked Gate. So grab your copy of The Pilgrim's Progress (or order one here if you don't own one) and follow along with our knowledgeable and passionate hosts. Jeff believes this book has profoundly impacted his Christian experience, and he highly commends it to others. [The Pilgrim's Progress] has the ability to take me by the heart…I just find myself thinking; this is so much like us – to not be able to see the best of things but to be able to see the worst of things so clearly. And here [Christian] is, arriving at the gate, and it's a little triumph and it's a lot of joy to see him move through this part of the path. It feels like life itself, doesn't it? – Jeff Stivason Thanks to the generosity of our friends at Banner of Truth, we have a couple copies of  Bunyan's classic work to offer for a giveaway. Click here to enter.  Each episode over the next several months will discuss a few chapters of the classic work. Part 2 of the book club will air on April 29th.  Show Notes: To order your copy of The Pilgrim's Progress: https://reformedresources.org/the-pilgrims-progress-clothbound/ The Strait Gate by John Bunyan https://a.co/d/abUTGaJ

The Strait Gate, The Narrow Way

The Strait Gate, The Narrow Way

“Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.” Hebrews 4:11HOMEPAGE:   https://safeguardyoursoul.comMAKE PEACE WITH GOD NOW: https://safeguardyoursoul.com/peace-with-god/SUPPORT:  https://safeguardyoursoul.com/donate/STORE:   https://store.safeguardyoursoul.com/ABOUT:  https://safeguardyoursoul.com/about/email Todd:  info@safeguardyoursoul.comBackground Music by: Thad Fiscella https://www.thadfiscella.com/ 

Listen to these forceful words of the Lord Jesus Christ from Luke 13, "Strive to enter in at the narrow gate: for many will seek to enter in, and shall not be able." Why is this? Simply because they have not come God's way - through His only begotten Son. Through the cleansing power of the blood of Christ. Only Christ can take away sin through His sacrificial death on Calvary. Go in for God's salvation. You'll find a Saviour waiting to bless you.

The Parable of the Strait Gate Luke 13:22-30 and Matthew 7:13-14 Pastor John Tilley Sunday Morning, June 12, 2022

The Lord Jesus is the Gate.

IT IS THE COMMANDS OF GOD THAT CONVICT US THAT WE ARE SPIRITUAL CRIMINALS, FOR SIN IS SIMPLY A BREAKING OF GOD'S LAW. Ex 19:8And mount Sinai was altogether on a smoke, because the LORD descended upon it in fire: and the smoke thereof ascended as the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mount quaked greatly. IN THIS MESSAGE WE WILL FIND OUT THAT THE CONVICTION OF OUR ACTS OF SIN ARE SIN ARE A GOOD THING BECAUSE THEY ARE THE FIRST WORKINGS GOD TO BRING US TO SALVATION, BUT WE MUST NOW ALSO BEWARE THAT ONCE OUR HAND IS SET TO THE PLOW, WE ARE NOT TO LOOK BACK, BUT LOOK TO SEE THAT OUR SIN NATURE MUST BECOME SIN TO US AND THEN OUR SELF RIGHTEOUSNESS BECOME SIN TO US AS WELL AS OUR UNBELIEF BECOME SIN TO US. . NOW WE MUST DOGGEDLY AGONIZE TO ENTER IN AT THE STRAIT GATE BEFORE WE DIE: Luke 9: [57] And it came to pass, that, as they went in the way, a certain man said unto him, Lord, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest. [58] And Jesus said unto him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head. [59] And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father. [60] Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and preach the kingdom of God. [61] And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee; but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at home at my house. [62] And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.Heb. 6: [4] For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, [5] And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, [6] If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.

Did JESUS mean what He said? Why are so few going to be saved not being able to enter the strait gate? Obedience unto righteousness unto holiness is required to enter heaven.

Walk TO the Door then THROUGH the DoorIn my morning devotion time, I was reminded of the verses of scripture that talks about Jesus Christ being the Christian's OPEN DOOR: *John 10:7,9 (KJV) Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am THE DOOR of the sheep. [9] I am THE DOOR: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. *Revelation 3:8 (KJV) I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an OPEN DOOR, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied (to contradict) my name. The devil always has a lot of traffic around THE DOOR because he wants to keep you and I from going TO the door let alone THROUGH the door! It takes more than going to church or going to the Cross we must receive Jesus as Lord and Savior by coming TO and the THROUGH THE DOOR. *Matthew 7:13-14 (KJV) Enter ye in at the STRAIT GATE (NARROW FROM OBSTACLES STANDING ABOUT): for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: [14] Because STRAIT IS THE GATE, and NARROW IS THE WAY, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. The STRAIT GATE - door is narrow and the devil is like a bottleneck on a freeway! We must be led to make Godly decisions: A Columbia researcher named Sheena Iyengar has found that the average person makes about 70 decisions every day. That's 25,500 decisions a year. Speaking of decisions, turn to the Gospel of John and let's look at Peter: *John 18:15-18 (KJV) And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple: that disciple was known unto the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the palace of the high priest. [16] But Peter stood at THE DOOR without. Then went out that OTHER DISCIPLE (JOHN), which was known unto the high priest, and spake unto her that kept the door, and brought in Peter. [17] Then saith the damsel that kept THE DOOR unto Peter, Art not thou also one of this man's disciples? He saith, I am not. [18] And the servants and officers stood there, who had made a fire of coals; for it was cold: and they warmed themselves: and Peter stood with them, and warmed himself. NOTE V.16"PETER STOOD AT THE DOOR WITHOUT" but "JOHN" (GOD'S GRACE) brought Peter "TO" the door then "THROUGH" the door! But that's where Peter had to start talking and walking by faith, but he lost his testimony!  The servants of sin and the officers of law made a fire out of Peter's loss of testimony and Peter warms himself by the world.FEAR WILL KEEP US ON THE WRONG SIDE OF THE DOOR! Will you respond to the Lord's message?*John 20:19,26 (KJV) Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when THE DOORS were shut where the disciples WERE ASSEMBLED for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you. [26] And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: then came Jesus, THE DOORS being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be unto you. We can be "ASSEMBLED" - be in church in fear and literally shut Jesus out! Notice Jesus came to them all and then came back just for Thomas! Will you let the Lord – “THE OPEN DOOR” come to you now and speak peace to your situation? Take every system and source that is working against you now to “THE DOOR” and command it to bow at the door and be no more! We must walk the “THE DOOR” first for salvation but then healing, deliverance, understanding, wisdom, guidance, power in Jesus' name! Let Jesus shut the door on the negative works

-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---The preacher sets forth the need that we continue in the narrow way that the strait gate opens into. It does not open into a wider way. He looks at what needs to be removed to keep us in the narrow way.--The Lord Jesus Christ is clearly set forth as the way.-A helpful, searching sermon.
