“Perhaps you do not understand that those that reject his commandments also reject all else of his kingdom.

He would not have said that few will find his gate if it were not so.”

Jesus said many things. He also said to the disciples when He sent them out,”The things that I do and more you too shall do in my name.”

He said “Ask and you shall receive.”

I prefer to look at the whole glass and with hope in the truth of His message, find that the glass is always more than half full.

Others take the legalistic interpretation of a few of Jesus’ teachings and the glass is always half empty or less by holding onto fear of not being good enough.

This is the message in Galatians 5.

Remember, God’s Love is there for each of us and Jesus said many times that He came to save and not to judge. By accepting Jesus as my savior and my strength, I trust using Him as my beacon to find the gate and pass through, again.

By my actions, others may also find truth in Jesus and find the gate no matter how well it is hidden.

No, that is not the ‘message’ in Galatians 5.
