"THE GATE"
"ENTER THROUGH THE NARROW GATE.
FOR WIDE IS THE GATE AND BROAD
IS THE ROAD THAT LEADS TO DESTRUCTION,
AND MANY ENTER THROUGH IT.
BUT SMALL IS THE GATE AND NARROW
AND NARROW THE ROAD
THAT LEADS TO LIFE.
AND ONLY A FEW FIND IT.
"I TELL YOU THE TRUTH,
THE MAN WHO DOES NOT ENTER THE SHEEP
PEN BY THE GATE,
BUT CLIMBS IN BY SOME OTHER WAY,
IS A THIEF AND A ROBBER.
THE MAN WHO ENTERS BY THE GATE
IS THE SHEPARD OF HIS SHEEP.
THE WATCHMAN OPENS THE GATE
FOR HIM,
AND THE SHEEP LISTEN TO HIS
VOICE.
HE CALLS HIS OWN SHEEP BY NAME
AND LEADS THEM OUT.
WHEN HE HAS BROUGHT OUT ALL HIS OWN,
HE GOES ON AHEAD OF THEM,
AND HIS SHEEP FOLLOW HIM BECAUSE
THEY KNOW HIS VOICE.
BUT THEY WILL NOT FOLLOW A STRANGER;
IN FACT THEY WILL
RUN AWAY FROM HIM BECAUSE THEY DO NOT RECOGNIZE A STRANGER'S
VOICE."
"I AM THE GATE,
WHOEVER ENTERS THROUGH ME
WILL BE SAVED.
HE WILL COME IN AND GO OUT AND FIND
PASTURE".
JOHN 10 1:9
MATT 7:13
