How do I go through that narrow gate? He didn't tell him. And he sends him back. Okay, so, and I told Lee, we were talking about this, and I told him, you know, it's so fascinating because God, for people who have not necessarily searched or don't know Jesus, he often gives them parables, even on the other side, which is fascinating because Jesus taught in parables. And no one liked it.

What is a parable? A parable... is a teaching that doesn't just tell you what to do. It makes you think and it makes you search. And if you're just impatient and you're like, just either tell me or I'm done with you, God's like, okay, I guess you're done with me, but I want you to seek. And when you seek, you will find. And that's why Jesus taught in parables. He wanted to see what's in the heart.

See, because that's what God is after. He's after our hearts. He wants relationship. That's what he said to Santosh. I want relationship. How honest will you be walking with me? Santosh didn't understand any of that, but he comes back. And he is seeking God. Every day he's praying. He's like, Lord, you weren't like the gods I learned about in the Vedas. Who are you?

Who is this God of compassion and love and mercy? I want to know you. And his daughter, two years later, so he's seeking for two years. His daughter is invited to sing at a church with a friend because she was a choral major in college. Santosh goes to hear her sing. walks into the church and feels the same loving presence of this God of light.

And then John 10, where Jesus said, I am the gate for the sheep. Whoever enters in through me will be saved and will find eternal, will find rest. And Santosh was blown away. He was like, oh my gosh, this is like just for me.

So not only is there biblical evidence from all history, but I think what God's doing today is he's saying, look, I created all people of all nations to be my children. And like Lee said, the reason he did what he did through Jesus is so that anybody anywhere
