Seemingly contradictory statements:
God wants all men be saved -
1 Timothy 2:3-4
Road to God is narrow and only a few will find it -
Matthew 7:13-14
Both are true
God shows he wants all me to be saved
He sent his son who spoke clearly and plainly about what it takes
The broad road says - I know better than God what life and eternity are all about
On the broad road - so many people and so many standards
Bible warns those on the broad road will face terrors and traps of many kinds -
Proverbs 4:10-19
Many agree that the narrow road teaching Jesus describes is one of the most difficult
Can not be faithful to Jesus' message and teach anything but the narrow road
Only a few find = fact is that only a few search
Everyone who seeks finds - Matthew 7:7-8
Key Phrase: Only a few find the narrow road but the fact is that only a few really search
