Matthew 7:13-14
13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
The Christian walk is the narrow way. So it isn't just the gateway that is narrow.
Yes it is. The entrance is narrow. Only One Way, Christ. But the believer has plenty of room to work out his salvation. To do well, to trip and fall and get up, to wander, to come back. Plenty of room.
(Psalm 31:8) "And hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a large room."
