The Narrow Door and the Cost of Entry

Luke 13:22-30
22And he was passing through cities and villages, teaching and making a journey toward Jerusalem. 23Then someone said to him, "Lord, if only a few are being saved?" Then he said to them, 24Struggle to enter through the narrow door, for many, I say to you, will seek to enter and will not be able. 25Once the householder has arisen and shut the door, you will begin to stand outside and knock on the door, saying, "Lord, open to us." And he will answer and say to you, "I do not know you or where you are from." 26Then you will begin to say, "We ate in your presence and drank, and you taught in our streets." 27And he will say to you, "I do not know where you are from. Depart from me, all workers of unrighteousness." 28There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, while you yourselves are being expelled outside. 29And people will come from east and west and from north and south and will recline in the kingdom of God. 30And behold, some who are last will be first, and some who are first will be last.
