As far as symbols go; they are only good for pointing to someplace you do not yet know
how to find. Once you find it, the symbol is no longer needed because you have found
what it was pointing to. These Scriptures are here to remind us of what we are to do
and also not to do; if we are to continue into the strait Gate. Exodus 32:8:
They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them: they have made them
a molten calf, and have worshipped it, and have sacrificed thereunto, and said, These be your
gods, O Israel, which have brought you up out of the land of Egypt.
Numbers 22:23:
And the as s saw the angel of the Lord waiting in the road with his sword in his hand; and turning
from the road, the as s went into the field; and Balaam gave the as s blows, to get her back on
to the road.
Deuteronomy 9:12:
And the Lord said to me, Get up now, and go down quickly from this place; for the people you
have taken out of Egypt have given themselves over to evil; they have quickly been turned from
the way in which I gave them orders to go; they have made themselves a metal image.
Deuteronomy 31:29:
For I am certain that after my death you will give yourselves up to sin, wandering from the way
which I have given you; and evil will overtake you in the end, because you will do evil in the eyes
of the Lord, moving him to wrath by the work of your hands.
I Samuel 12:20:
Then Samuel said to the people, Have no fear: truly you have done evil, but do not be turned
away from the Lord; be his servants with all your heart;
I Samuel 12:21:
And do not go from the right way turning to those false gods in which there is no profit and no
salvation, for they are false.
Matthew 7:13:
Enter you in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leads to destruction,
and many there be which go in thereat:
Hebrews 12:1:
For this reason, as we are circled by so great a cloud of witnesses, putting off every weight, and
the sin into which we come so readily, let us keep on running in the way which is marked out for us,
