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.
|
Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
