I see all the Messengers are those Gates.
So Krishna, Abraham, Moses, Muhammad and Zoroaster, to name a few, were that Narrow Gate, to which all paths lead us to.
I agree that all the Messengers were those Gates, but they were only the Narrow Gate in the beginning, when their religions were first established, when only a few people had walked through the Gate.
Matthew 7:13-14 Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.
It says that
few find the small gate and the narrow road that leads to life.
But 2.4 billion people are Christians, 1.9 billion people are Muslims, and 1.2 billion people are Hindus, and that is a lot more than a few people, so we know those are not the people who have entered through the narrow gate.
I believe that those verses applied to Christians of 2,000 years ago when
few had found Jesus but those verses are do not apply to Christians of today. Given 29% of people in the world are Christians many have entered through that gate so it must be a wide gate and a broad road, not the narrow gate that few find.
Jesus told us to enter through the narrow gate, the gate that leads to eternal life, and He said
few people would find that gate...
It is narrow, so it is difficult to get through... It is difficult to get through because one has to be willing to give up all their preconceived ideas, have an open mind, and think for themselves. Most people do not normally embark upon such a journey. They go through the wide gate, the easy one to get through – their own religious tradition or their own preconceived ideas about God or no god. They follow that broad road that is easiest for them to travel.
