Jesus Christ said, "Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it." (Matt. 7:13,14 NKJV). Narrow Gate Ministry serves to assist the christian to completion in Christ Jesus; to walk just as Jesus walked. The christian must understand what Jesus meant by "difficult is the way" to experience His victory in it.

"The Kingdom of Heaven is Like..."
"The kingdom of heaven is like"...........a buffet restaurant, where everything you think you like to eat is so perfectly done that you are willing to TASTE EVEN THOSE DISHES THAT YOU THOUGHT YOU WOULDN'T WANT, and. because you couldn't possibly taste EVERYTHING OFFERED on any one day, you go back DAILY.
Now that my family is done laughing due to my affinity for buffet - style restaurants, we may proceed. For sure, physically and spiritually healthy people eat!
"I now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and FILL UP IN MY FLESH what is lacking in the afflictions of Christ, for the sake of His body, which is the church." (Colossians 1:24) Yep, just what I was thinking about when I received salvation to God through Jesus Christ- "filling up in my flesh the afflictions of Jesus Christ" for the sake of others! No, I was interested in helping ME with what I thought was GOOD. It is imperative to understand that we christians CANNOT help others with what we have not partaken of.
I heard a minister say, "we must be willing to believe what we read, not read what we believe."
