Welcome To The Rose Ave Church of Christ

Introduction: "Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few..” Matt 7:13-14 THE NARROW WAY

There are roughly 7 Billion people on this planet. Where do they all stand when it comes to serving God and getting to Heaven? The Bible is very clear on both these subjects. The Narrow Way is singular and as God’s people we must ensure we are on the right path to be numbered among the few. THE NARROW WAY

The Way is always singular. …. so that if he found any belonging to the Way, men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.” Acts 9:2 “I persecuted this Way to the death, binding and delivering to prison both men and women” Acts 22:4 “But this I confess to you, that according to the Way, which they call a sect, I worship the God of our fathers, ….,” Acts 24:14 “But Felix, having a rather accurate knowledge of the Way,…, I will decide your case.” Acts 24:22

There are roughly 7 Billion people on this planet. Where do they all stand when it comes to serving God and getting to Heaven? The Bible is very clear on both these subjects. The Narrow Way is singular and as God’s people we must ensure we are on the right path to be numbered among the few. However, in choosing the single Narrow Way we sadly by default place the majority of the world on the Broad Way. If you don’t believe me, then answer the following questions. THE NARROW WAY

Do you think one must believe in God the Father? Heb 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to be well-pleasing (unto Him); for he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and (that) He is a rewarder of them that seek after Him.

THE NARROW WAY Conclusion: The next time someone says “you think you are the only ones going to heaven”, ask them this series of questions and see how much of the world they eliminate from being saved? It is a very sad situation, but none the less (without repentance) it is the truth and we must have the courage to preach, teach and live it. What path are you on tonight?
