Key Verse: Verses 15,18,31 – “And for the other side of the court gate, on this hand and that hand, were hangings of fifteen cubits; their pillars three, and their sockets three. And the hanging for the gate of the court was needlework, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen: and twenty cubits was the length, and the height in the breadth was five cubits, answerable to the hangings of the court. And the sockets of the court round about, and the sockets of the court gate, and all the pins of the tabernacle, and all the pins of the court round about.”

The Tabernacle had only one gate or one entrance way, which is a picture of salvation …only one way.
Jesus said, “I am the way” (John 14:6).
“Enter ye in at the strait gate” (Matthew 7:13a).
“Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it” (Matthew 7:14).
I was in Washington, DC, on September 11, 2001. As a matter of fact, I was in the White House on the morning of September 11, 2001. A day that those of us who were alive and old enough to recount that day, will always remember.
I was stranded in DC…no planes were going out, no trains were traveling…so I heard an advertisement on television that Greyhound busses were all still running. So I caught a taxi, went to the bus depot, and purchased my ticket to Birmingham. It was literally the only way to get to where I wanted to go.
So it is with Heaven! If you want to go there, there is only One Way, and Jesus is the Way, not our baptism, good works, or our church membership. One gate leads to Heaven and Jesus is the Way. Are you going through the Gate to Heaven? If so, it must be through Him.
What to do:
✞Ask Jesus to save you. He is the Only Gate that leads to Heaven.
