REFLECTION Psalm 63:1-4 Foundations: The Bible is the WORD of GOD! (2 Timothy 3:16, 2 Peter 1:21) Jesus Christ is who He claims to be! (Philippians 2:5-11) The Gospel is essential! (John 3:35-36; 1 Corinthians 15:3-6) 1. ONLY 2 TO GO! Matthew 7:13-14 2 Gates: and (John 10:7-10) 2 Ways: Hard and (Matthew 16:24-26) 2 Destinations: and Destruction (Luke 16; John 5:24) 2 Crowds: The and The Many (2 Timothy 3:1-5) ALL ROADS DO LEAD TO GOD, BUT ONLY 1 LEADS TO HIS FORGIVENESS! See John 14:6; Acts 4:12; 1 Timothy 2:5 2. 2 OF THOUGHT Matthew 7:15-20 1 School is anchored in the of God's Word! The other is anchored in the great lie from Satan himself.

Will you choose the difficult road and the narrow gate that lead to eternal life or the broad road and the wide gate that lead to eternal destruction (7:13-14)? Will you believe the truth or a lie? Will you choose the good tree with good fruit or the bad tree with bad fruit (7:15-20)? How will you stand before God at the judgment? Will you choose a genuine confession marked by obedience or a false profession marked by disobedience (7:21-23)? (Here is a link to a wonderful gospel presentation: TwoWaysToLive.com)
