In the last verses on the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus warns us against things that can keep a person who has heard the Gospel from ultimately committing their life to the Lord. Firstly, there are two roads, a wide road that is easy now but leads to destruction and a narrow road that is hard now but leads to life. Many take the easy road while a few take the hard road. The hearers are left with a choice of which road will they take? There are two trees. Good trees bear good fruit, and bad trees bear bad fruit. What fruit do we bear? In other words, what do your words and deeds reveal about who you are? Then there are two ways to call upon Jesus. Some call upon his name and even prophesy and perform wonders in his name, but they do not know him and are not saved. On that last day, when all stand before Jesus, the Judge, there will be one question. Do they know Jesus as saviour or not?
