- To sum up the above statement, there is a road to heaven, a door, and a key to open it. This road is narrow and the door is small and there are few who find it. The obstructors hold the keys of knowledge and blocks those who do not enter. The content of knowledge is the confession that Christ is my king. Entering the door is the obedience under king’s reign.
