The Narrow Door | Don't Just Stand Near It | Luke 13:22-30

from NHCC Sermons & Teaching · host New Horizons Christian Church

Jesus said something that stopped people in their tracks — and it should stop us too.In Luke 13:22-30, someone asks Jesus a simple question: "Lord, will those who are saved be few?" Jesus doesn't answer the question. Instead, he turns it around and makes it personal. Don't wonder about everyone else, he says. Strive to enter through the narrow door — because many who think they're in, won't be.This is one of the most sobering passages in all of Scripture. And Jesus said it because he loved people too much to let them stay comfortable in a false assumption.Big Idea: The door to salvation is narrow. The opportunity to enter is limited. The decision to choose is personal. Strive now to enter through Jesus Christ.In this message:What Jesus actually meant by "strive" — and why the word should shake youThe difference between knowing Jesus and knowing about JesusWhy the prosperity gospel is a lie — and what Jesus actually promisedWhat it means that the first will be last and the last will be firstWhy the door is still open — and why it won't always be📖 Scripture References: Luke 13:22-30 | Philippians 3:13-14 | James 2:5New Horizons Christian Church | Clermont, FL11340 Howey Cross Rd, Clermont, FL
