No. What I have seen is liberal Christians, if there is such a thing, tearing down the narrow gate to make it wide enough for everyone to get through.

Makes me wonder why Jesus told those those who were practicing lawlessness to Depart from Him.

So you agree then that it is the Christian who strives to enter via the straight gate.

How come then they are unable?

I don't have to quote you. Since you did not address the question, and talked about something unrelated, you did try to change the subject.

Pastors, Evangelists, and Preachers, based upon the passage. What is the point of veering off into the obvious part of the passage--"Why did He say that to them? If you can't figure that out, come back and I will explain it to you." Like that part is even in dispute? It is to avoid looking at reality, wadr.
Prezaxley. I don't understasnd why that is so hard to understand.

That they did what they said, is what is in dispute.

Explain how. I am not finger pointing, I have quoted Scripture and ask, why Jesus said to them, what He did.

Is good politician not an oxy-moron?

The wide gate leads to destruction because, it is the wrong gate.

What challenges and builds your faith, when you don't get what you want?

My true identity is who I am posting as. You have done it again. Instead of answering my question, you ask me one.

I will tell you when you tell me why Jesus said "depart from Me" and accused them of practicing lawlessness. Until you do that I will not answer any of your questions.
