“Brothers and Sisters, if you are ever in a doubt about which is the right path, remember those words of the Savior - ‘Strait is the gate and narrow is the way, and few there are that find it.’
Prefer strictness to laxity. Do not mistake me, I wish to be understood, even if I am charged with censoriousness and bigotry. We need to pull up, every now and then, and say to ourselves, ‘Which out of these two courses is the right way?’ for in these times, exceedingly clever men are crying up new roads and extolling them after some such fashion as this:

‘Here you have a road worthy of the period. None of your narrow ways! Be liberal, be broad—this is the road for the cultured and advanced.’

Your Savior lifts His warning hand as He cries, ‘Broad is the way which leads to destruction and many there are that go in there.’ Be it yours and mine, even if charged with bigotry and illiberality, to still select that way which the saints of old have chosen, unpleasing to the flesh, but pleasing to God—the strait and narrow road which leads to life eternal!”

Charles H. Spurgeon
