The Two Ways
Matthew 7:13-14
Enter you in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leads to destruction…


I. THE WAY OF SIN WHICH WE ARE DIRECTED TO AVOID.

1. The gate is wide. It requires no difficulty.

2. It is broad. It is lawless.

3. It is crowded.

4. Its termination.

II. THE PATH OF CHRISTIAN HOLINESS WHICH WE ARE TO PURSUE.

1. Its entrance.

2. Its dimensions.

3. Its paucity of passengers.

4. Its blissful end.

III. RELECTIONS.

1. There is an inseparable connection between the present and the future.

2. There is no middle path in religion.

3. Never suffer the world to be your authority in matters of religion.

4. Strive to enter in at the strait gate.

(J. E. Good.)
