Jesus Leads Us Through Narrow and Rough Path, but to Life ㅡ
What is our path to heaven? It is a path that is narrow and apparently inconvenient; it is a path of conflict, of trial, of tribulation and suffering.
Our Captain, Jesus Christ, has hid nothing from us in regard to the battles we are to fight.
He opens the map before us and shows us the way.
“Strive,” He says, “to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able” (Luke 13:24).
“Wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat” (Matthew 7:13).
“In the world ye shall have tribulation” (John 16:33).
The apostle echoes the words of Christ, “We must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom” (Acts 14:22).
Well, is it the discouraging aspect we are to keep before the mind’s eye?
This is Jesus, the life of every grace, the life of every promise, the life of every ordinance, the life of every blessing.
Jesus is the substance, the glory and fragrance, the very life itself.
“He that followeth Me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life” (John 8:12).
Then the royal path cast up the ransomed to walk in is not discouraging darkness.
Then let us gather every registered promise. Let us repeat them by day and meditate upon them in the night season, and be happy.
