Intolerable Intolerance To Tolerance

Evangelism is our call to direct others to the narrow gate, but we cannot force them to enter it. The flesh is drawn by the wide gate for it promises the things of the world, the pride of accomplishment, and gratification, but the Spirit calls us to die to ourselves and enter the narrow gate so that we pass from death into life. Jesus is that gate and through Him we are born into the Spirit and find life. Just as few recognized Jesus in Israel in spite of many witnesses, few will recognize Him in our culture in spite of anything we can prove or provide as a testimony. Even so, our commission given by Jesus is to reach out with the truth and leave the results to Him.
