Matthew 7:13-14 Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. Two Entrances There are two entrances...
Matthew 7:12 So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets. I like executive summaries. The bottom line. The main point. Cut to the chase. Give me a few bullet points on one side of a sheet of paper and...
