“I am the Way.”
JOHN 14:6
What
is God after? What does He seek from us? What does He want? First and
foremost, He desires a people who will be conformed to the image of His
Son, that they may demonstrate the preeminence of Christ in all
things. But how does He gain such a people for Himself? The first step
is to reveal His Son to us. This is the narrow gate. We cannot begin to
walk the narrow path until we have entered the narrow gate.
Upon
entering the narrow gate He begins to change us from the inside out so
that it is Christ expressing Himself through us. “Not I, but Christ.”
This is the narrow path. This narrow path we call discipleship.
It leads us somewhere. A path is not for standing still. It has a
destination. Where does the path lead? What is the End? Christ as All in
All. That is the End. All things work together according to this
supreme purpose, His Purpose.
