What does it mean that the path to salvation is narrow?

Answered in 1 source

The narrow path signifies that salvation is through Christ alone and that it restricts any human works or merits.

The narrow way described in Matthew 7:14 highlights that true salvation is limited to those who come to God through Jesus Christ, rejecting any notion of self-sufficiency or dependence on one’s own works. This narrowness points to the fact that God’s plan for salvation is specific and intentional, designed for His chosen people. It is through Christ's righteousness alone that one can be justified before God. This understanding encourages believers to uphold the integrity of the gospel against cultural and theological deviations that suggest a broader, more inclusive way to God than what Scripture teaches.
