Hi, I'm Robert Jeffress and I'm glad to serve as your Bible teacher every day on this great radio station on today's edition of Pathway to Victory.

You know, every day we make decisions, don't we? Most are in consequential. Some are more important and some are life altering decisions.

But no choice we make is any more consequential than the one we're going to look at today. The choice of where you're going to spend, eternity.

Welcome to Pathway to Victory with author and pastor Dr. Robert Jeffress. You know, we can't possibly predict when or where, but the truth is the day is coming for every one of us.

Some day our hearts will stop beating and will be on the threshold of a new beginning. So when that day comes, what's next for you?

Today on Pathway to Victory, Dr. Robert Jeffress shares what Jesus said about your life beyond the grave. Now here's our Bible teacher to introduce today's message.

Dr. Jeffress, thanks David and welcome again to Pathway to Victory. We have come to the final day in my teaching series called 18 Minutes with Jesus.

And this is the very last day to request a copy of my bestselling book by the same title 18 Minutes with Jesus.

I imagine asking Jesus to meet you at the local coffee shop so that you could have a one-on-one conversation. Given that opportunity, what do you think Jesus would say to you?

This is what I had in mind when I wrote 18 Minutes with Jesus. In its pages or things I believe had shared with you if your time was short and your eternity was at stake.

Please, on this final program in May, reach out and request my book 18 Minutes with Jesus. I can hardly wait to share it with you because I know that your faith will be strengthened.

Plus, when you give, you're equipping others to live in love like Jesus as well. Not long ago I heard from Diane and Mississippi who said,

Pathway to Victory has been a huge blessing in my life. This morning especially, I needed your message on living by faith.

I'd been in a bit of a slump and lost focus for a little while. God used that message to refocus my spiritual eyes. Thank you for your ministry.

It's one of the pavers on my walkway to eternity. Beautifully said Diane, and your encouraging comment inspires all of us to keep giving generously to Pathway to Victory.

Now, we'll say more about my best-selling book and other resources later. But right now, in this final message of the series, I'd like to address the most important topic of them all.

I title today's message straight talk about your eternal destiny.

If you have your Bibles, turn to Matthew 7 as we look at some straight talk from the Savior about your eternal destiny.

Matthew 7. Jesus draws four sharp contrasts. He's going to talk about two kinds of roads, two kinds of prophets,

two kinds of followers, and two very different kind of houses. Let's look at what he says first of all about two different kinds of roads in life.

Matthew 7 beginning with verse 13. Enter through the narrow gate for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it.

But the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to salvation, and there are few who find it. Some theologians I read this week try to make a distinction between the gate and the road.
