Sleepin'

Let’s face it, the world is corrupt. It is filled with debauchery and many kinds of evil. The Bible even refers to Satan as the god of this world and prince of the power of the air (Eph. 2:2). In 2 Cor. 4:4, it states that “...the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving so that they might not see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.”

The road that leads to destruction and ultimately hell is broad. Most people are trotting down a path that is futile, fruitless, and dishonoring to God. They are “sleepin’” on Him, meaning they do not take God seriously. In the parable of the sower we see some of the different types of people who are on the broad road. These people include ones from whom Satan has snatched away the word which was sown in them; ones who fall away when affliction and persecution arises; and ones whom worries of the world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the desires for other things enter and choke the word that was sown (Mark 4:13-19).

In contrast, is the narrow way. The narrow path leads to life. The people on this road are the ones where the word is sown on good soil and bears much fruit. Eternal life with Christ is found through the narrow gate.

Tell someone you know who is on the broad path that they can enter through the narrow gate through faith in Christ.
