Many people who say they are traveling the narrow-road through the narrow-gate believe it is a legit reason for them to be narrow-minded. They even say, "I am proud to be narrow-minded because Jesus was narrow-minded." Many narrow-minded people who think they have entered through the narrow-gate and are traveling the narrow-road leading to life, have entered through the wide-gate and are traveling the broad-road that leads to destruction! People think that because Jesus said that the narrow gate and the narrow road leads to life, that Jesus Himself was narrow-minded. Jesus said, "Narrow is the way that leads to life" (Matt. 7:14).  I used to think that meant that narrow is the way to go to heaven and few there be that find it. That is the traditional concept.

 Denominationalism is a religious man-made tradition that is anti-God, antiChrist and anti-Gospel. Segregating the Body of Christ into denominated pens called churches, signing membership forms in order to be considered a member in good standing, agreeing to abide by codes of conduct and bylaws are man-made and has NO basis in scripture. There are thousands of different denominations all with different conflicting doctrines, beliefs, and teachings.
