1. There are two ways: a broad way and a narraw way.
2. The broad way leads to destruction, it is a wide gate and many people follow this
    way – it is a sinful way.

4. Those on the narrow way are those who believe in Jesus.

APPLICATION
Get on the Narrow Road. The gateway to eternal life is called narrow. This does not mean it
is difficult to become a Christian, but that there is only one way to live eternally with
God and a few that decide to follow it. Believing in Jesus is the only way to heaven,
because he alone died for our sins and made us right before God. Living his way not be
popular, but it is true and right. Thank God there is one way!

MESSAGE OF SALVATION

Narrow way. At church you will know that Jesus said “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life;
no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”
