Matthew 22:14

¹⁰Therefore, brothers,^[+] be more diligent to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you will never stumble.

²³One said to him, “Lord, are they few who are saved?” He said to them,

²⁴“Strive to enter in by the narrow door, for many, I tell you, will seek to enter in and will not be able.

¹⁴These will war against the Lamb, and the Lamb will overcome them, for he is Lord of lords and King of kings; and those who are with him are called, chosen, and faithful.”

¹³“Enter in by the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter in by it. ¹⁴How^[+] narrow is the gate and the way is restricted that leads to life! There are few who find it.

¹⁶So the last will be first, and the first last. For many are called, but few are chosen.”

²²Unless those days had been shortened, no flesh would have been saved. But for the sake of the chosen ones, those days will be shortened.
