The Straight Gate
[Lk 13:24] Anyone who claims to have been saved has both found and entered
through the strait gate. They are now on the narrow path that leads to life...
...This is about the experience of entering into life, eternal life and having
the ability to worship in spirit and in truth.
The Christian has overcome (1 Jn 4:4).
Regeneration takes place once and at that point in time the sinner knows,
through trust, he’s been saved.
That's true (John
3:5,
8;
Titus 3:5);
but, there are many false converts.

The Strait Gate is the difficult one...

have no idea." ~ Jurassic Park
The strait gate symbolizes Jesus Christ. He is the "door" of the sheepfold. (John
10:7-9) Passing through is the miracle of regeneration (Matthew
25:10)...
Yes. And that same power that saved us

So you haven't passed through either.
God knows the heart. You do not (1
Co 4:5).
Ha! Loved that movie. Loved the second one too when the character
played by Jeff Goldblum said, "Oh sure, first it's all "Oooo and ahhhh". But
then comes the running and screaming."
