Chapter 1: Two Roads, ONE WAY



"Two roads diverge in a yellow woods and I took the one less travel by, and that makes all the difference..."-Robert Frost

"Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it.

For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it."

-Matt. 7: 13-14

Mostly of all the people does not know the simple way to heaven. People say by doing good works, obeying the commandments of God, loving one another, praying to the saints, going to church every Sunday, education, religion and many others is the way to go to Heaven. Yet, absolutely this ways are totally wrong!

In fact, the 14th verse of Matthew 7 says that only few were able to find the real way. This way
is only through Jesus Christ. Jesus said "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life no one comes to the Father except through Him". That's it! The only and simple way to heaven.

Maybe you would ask how. It by believing Jesus Christ by faith as your personal Lord and Savior. In Ephesians 2: 8-9 it says, "For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast".
Faith is not by believing only but by believing and trusting Jesus to take control of your life. Now that's the faith we need to enter the Kingdom of God. That's not the only catch, if we believe him by faith we will have eternal life and all of our sins will be forgiven. Wonderful is his Grace!

Now talking about the two roads, which one will you take? The wide road which most people travel by that leads to destruction (Hell) or taking the narrow road with few people travel by that leads to life (Heaven)? It is now up to you which will you choose.
