A Nugget of Truth.
GOD HAS NEVER HAD THE MAJORITY WHO STANDS FOR THE TRUTH

From the beginning of Scripture to the end, God has never had the majority on His side. Truth has never been determined by numbers.

Abel stood for righteousness, yet he was murdered by his own brother (Genesis 4). In Noah's day, only eight souls entered the ark while the rest of the world rejected God's warning and perished in the Flood (1 Peter 3:20). Lot escaped the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, but the cities themselves refused to repent (Genesis 19).

This pattern continues throughout the Bible. The faithful have always been a minority because the majority often chooses the easier path rather than the righteous one.

Jesus Himself declared:

«"Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it." — Matthew 7:13–14 (KJV)»

Christ also explained why many reject the truth:

«"Men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil... neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved." — John 3:19–20 (KJV)»

Today, many prefer human traditions to God's revealed truth. Many are willing to defend error while resisting those who faithfully proclaim the Word of God. Jesus warned that false prophets and wolves in sheep's clothing would arise, appearing outwardly righteous while inwardly leading people astray (Matthew 7:15).

The Bible also foretold that in the last days many would become lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God (2 Timothy 3:4). Entertainment has replaced reverence, and many desire messages that make them feel comfortable instead of messages that call them to repentance and holy living.

Do not mistake God's patience for His approval of sin. Ecclesiastes 8:11 teaches that because judgment is not executed immediately, many become emboldened to continue in evil. Yet God's delay is an expression of His mercy, not His acceptance of sin. He is "not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance" (2 Peter 3:9).

God's grace is still extended to you today. But grace is an invitation to repentance, not a license to continue in sin.

The same Jesus who forgives also commands:

«"Sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee." — John 5:14 (KJV)»

Now is the time to repent, be converted, and walk in obedience to God's Word. Do not follow the crowd. Stand with Christ, even if you stand alone. In the end, it is not the majority who will be saved—it is those who faithfully follow the Lamb wherever He leads.
