The gate is narrow and few find it. Not because God hides it from them, but because few are willing to pay the price to truly follow Jesus.
It looks like Jesus. It is not a real gate but is refering to Jesus.
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. John 14:6 (NKJV)

quote: brother, in your opinion, what does this narrow gate look like?
Is what Jesus did on the cross the narrow gate?
John 10:7 Then said Jesus to them again, Verily, verily, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.
When compared to the world and all of its philosophies, choosing Jesus and His death and resurrection instead of the rest, that IS a narrow gate.
May I ask you, becauseHElives, What does the gatekeeper of the narrow gate ask anyone who tries to enter the narrow gate?
And let's say that some AdamandEve person MAKES IT THROUGH THE NARROW GATE BY PERMISSION FROM ITS GUARD, at that poin the AdamandEve person is a CHRISTIAN right, even if they stay close to the narrow gate after that?
They are STILL in the kingdom of God aren't they, as long as they are on the INSIDE of the narrow gate? Help me out here...
with love, Eden
Eden, that is a great question!
I hope to hear what others have to say?
I will try to respond soon.
