+### [Read the passage.](https://biblia.com/bible/esv/Lk13.22-30)
+
+Because it is nearly time for Him to die, Jesus is making His way to Jerusalem.
+But with perfect timing, He is continuing to do ministry along the way. At some
+point, He is asked if there will be only a few people saved. It has the feel of
+someone seeking to settle a debate, rather than someone who is genuinely
+curious, but that might be just me reading into the text. In any case, the
+motivations of the asker aren't important.
+
+It's always interesting when Jesus is asked a question, and then He doesn't
+answer it directly. He sets up a metaphor such that the way to salvation is to
+go through a narrow door, which implies that only a few people can get in it.
+And then He states that many will try to get in through it, but won't be able
+to because it is shut. However, there will also be people from the four corners
+of the world who will come to eat at the King's table, which does not sound
+like just a few people. Will only a few be saved? It depends on how you look at
+it. In absolute terms, no, probably not. In comparison to those who will not be
+saved, then yes, it is a smaller number than that.
+
+It is important to note that the people who seek to get in the door, but
+cannot, are unable to do so because the door has already been shut. There will
+come a time when salvation will no longer be available, and that's when a whole
+bunch of people are going to wish they had it. They had the chance earlier, but
+it wasn't important enough to them then. Make sure to enter the narrow door
+while the invitation is offered.
