My wife and I are building a home. If you’ve ever done the same or even remodeled, you know there are many choices to be made. What flooring do we get? What color should the dining room be? The hardest choice for us involved choosing the type of doors we want. Our choices were many: four panel, six panel, solid oak, pine. We just needed something solid enough to withstand the pounding they’ll take from three little boys.  

When it comes to our eternity, how many choices of doors are there? ONE! And the door is Jesus. “Make every effort to enter through the narrow door” (Luke 13:24).

Jesus says that he is the door, and he is the only way to heaven. Others will say if you do good works, pray, fast, or do other good deeds that those will get you access to heaven. Nope! One door.

Jesus, who lived a perfect life for you and died in your place, made death a door to heaven. Your heavenly home awaits. Thank you, Jesus, for taking all the guesswork out of our eternity. When it comes to your heavenly home, one door is all that’s needed—Jesus—and that’s as solid as it gets!
