LORD, ARE ONLY A FEW SAVED?!   Our Lord Jesus was asked many questions. Some were by the local people and others by the "Masters of the Law", who did not like Him and wanted to lead Him into a trap and attack Him. According to Saint Luke, a question was asked by one of them. And I think the way the question is asked showed that it was likely asked by a local; I consider it a great question because it has to do with Salvation, Eternal Life, eternal perdition and death. This question shows a heartfelt interest in having an answer on how to avoid death and something for us to ask ourselves today. Let us see how such a question was asked of Jesus and ponder His answer, as it conveys a Divine Revelation. And if we believe in Jesus' Word, the answer holds the key to inheriting Eternal Life. The question is found in Luke 13:22-30 “Lord, will those who are saved be few?” Jesus replied, "make every effort to enter through the narrow door!” What does this mean? I think it is a call to fight, to make the ultimate effort, even if you have to suffer and cry in doing so, that you can enter through this narrow door, for such a narrow door is the gateway to Life. The Lord also reveals that only a few will pass through such a door. This confirms what we see in our time today. Few are seeking Jesus, few are attending their local parish, few are receiving Communion, and very few are serving their brothers as He commanded. Those who do what Jesus requires are struggling to enter through the narrow doorway that He commanded. Thus, the flock is small that walks the path of Salvation. If you have heard God's Voice in your heart and believe in His promise of Eternal Life, you are indeed part of the small flock that strives to enter through the narrow door every day, even as Satan tries to persuade you to go through the wide door through which, according to the Scripture, most people go. Let us not be surprised that most of our friends and family do not seek God, and many make fun of you and say that you have been brainwashed and led astray in your obedience to Jesus’ commands. Jesus' answer reveals what the final judgment will be like. The way He describes it makes us understand that, at some point, the narrow door will close, and many will be left outside the doorway where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. What does this mean? Let's check Matthew 7:13-14, where a broad or wide door is described, which is entered by most people as a result of not recognizing the Love of God and in disregarding His instructions to enter through the narrow door. Outside the narrow door is interpreted as hell, eternal death. But those of us who have recognized that…
