How do we know the doctrine of few being saved is true?

Answered in 1 source

The truth that few are saved is derived from Scripture, where Jesus explicitly mentions that many will not enter the kingdom of God.

The doctrine that only a few will be saved is supported by Jesus’s own words in the Gospels. In Luke 13:22-24, He is asked directly if only a few will be saved, to which He responds by urging them to strive to enter through the narrow door. This indicates that while many will attempt to enter, only those who genuinely seek Him with repentance will find the way to salvation. Throughout the Bible, there are numerous examples where God’s chosen people are portrayed as a remnant amid a majority that rejects Him, reinforcing the stark reality of salvation’s rarity.
