Wicket Gate!

Luke 13:23-24 (NIV)

Someone asked him, “Lord, are only a few people going to be saved?” He said to them, “Make every effort to enter through the narrow door, because many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able to.

Perhaps the questioner had observed that despite the very large crowds that came to hear Jesus’ preaching and be healed, there were only a few followers who were loyal.  Jesus did not answer directly but warned that many would try to enter after it was too late.
