Helpful Questions

 

And someone said to him, “Lord, will those who are saved be few?” And he said to them, “Strive to enter through the narrow door. For many, I tell you, will seek to enter and will not be able.” Luke 13:23-24 (ESV) “So the text teaches us. It does not say, “a few may be misled,” but many shall seek to enter in, and shall not be able. That many professors are deceived is clear enough from the language of Christ Himself, both here and in other places.” (C. H. Spurgeon.) The academic world seems to enjoy posing questions that leave people dangling for answers. The educational elite often portray their thought process as extraordinary, even infallible as they implore students to discuss the problem of whether or not a tree that falls in a forest makes a sound if no one hears a sound. There are discussions and questions that can be helpful in discovering truth, but the motivation for those questions needs to be the discovery of truth. If the motivation is something other than truth, then we are set up to be deluded. Charles Spurgeon said of this verse “...this delusion may last through life, and be sustained by many specious arguments, but IT MUST ALL BE DISPELLED.” (C. H. Spurgeon.)
