Matthew 7:13-23 - Looks Can Be Deceiving
Oct 5, 2025 • Mike Montgomery
Jesus presents us with critical choices that impact our eternal destinies in Matthew 7:13-23. He commands us to enter by the narrow gate, which leads to life, rather than the wide gate that leads to destruction. The narrow path is difficult and unpopular, while the broad way is attractive and well-traveled. Jesus warns about false prophets who disguise themselves as followers but lead people astray. We can identify them by their fruits - both their doctrine and their practice. Most sobering is that not everyone who claims Jesus as Lord will enter heaven; true faith must be accompanied by obedience and a transformed life.
