All would like to think Heaven
Is waiting for them in the end,
For God is a truly Loving God
And wants so to be our Friend.
But many will miss the Narrow Way
Entering the Broad downward paths by mistake,
Which unleft,will seal their utter doom--
When God opens Heaven's Gates.

You see, the Path to Heaven
Is for those who do Seek and Find,
In Jesus Christ, the one True Way
Both Narrow and Refined.
Don't think All roads lead to Heaven
Lest you be deceived with humanities great,
Seek Christ Now, who will lead you to Glory
When God opens His Heavenly Gates.

How sad 'twill be in Judgment
For those who did not find the Way,
"Depart from Me, for I know ye not"
The Righteous Judge will say.
But for those gathered at His Right Hand--
All His sheep who did live for His sake,
He'll say,"Come ye Blessed of My Father"
And then open those Heavenly Gates!

(Biblical Basis:MATTHEW 7:7-8,13-14,21-23/
25:31-46/MARK 8:34-38/II THESSALONIANS 1:3- 12)

David, you did more than alright. This is great! And you are definitely right, not all roads lead to Crist, and I think that is something we all need to remember!
