"Narrow Is The Road That Leads To Life, And Only A Few Find It."

So many millions of nominal Christians!
(Arthur Pink)

"Not everyone who says to me, 
'LORD, LORD,' 
will enter the kingdom of Heaven, but only 
he who does the will of my FATHER who is 
in Heaven."Matthew 7:21

"Holding to the form of godliness but 

denying its power." 2 Timothy 3:5

Never have there been so many 

millions of nominal Christians 
as there are today--
and never has there been such 
a small percentage of real believers. 

Never has Christendom been so crowded 
with those who have a form of godliness
but who are strangers to its transforming 
power. We seriously doubt whether there 
has ever been a time in the history of 
this Christian era when there were 
such multitudes of deceived souls 
within the churches, who truly believe 
that all is well with their souls, when 
in fact the wrath of GOD abides on them!

It is not that those empty professors 

who call themselves Christians are all 
conscious hypocrites, rather are they 
deceived souls; and the tragic thing 
is that in most churches there is nothing 
in the preaching which is at all calculated 
to un-deceive them; instead, there is only 
that which bolsters them up in their delusion! 

There is a large class in Christendom 

today who are satisfied with a bare 
professionThey have heard some 
of the fundamentals of the Christian 
faith, and have given an intellectual 
assent thereto, and they mistake that 
for a saving knowledge of the Truth. 

Their minds are instructed--
but their hearts are not reached, 
nor their lives transformed! 

They are still worldly in their 
affections and ways. There is . . .
  no real subjection to GOD,
  no holiness of walk,
  no fruit to CHRIST'S glory.

"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 L
Matthew 7:13-14
