Luke 13:24-26

The Voice

Jesus: ²⁴ Strive to enter through the narrow door now, because many people—hear Me on this—will try to enter later on and will not be able to. ²⁵ Imagine you want to enter someone’s home, but you wait until after the homeowner has shut the door. Then you stand outside and bang on the door, and you say, “Sir, please open the door for us!” But he will answer, “I don’t know where you’re from.”

²⁶ Then you’ll say, “Just a minute. We ate and drank with you, and you taught in our streets.”
