No middle way

Isaiah 35:8 (NIV) And a highway will be there; it will be called the Way of Holiness. The unclean will not journey on it; it will be for those who walk in that Way; wicked fools will not go about on it.

Psalm 16:11 (NIV) You have made known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand.

Matthew 7:14 (NIV) But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.

The Christian way is not the "middle way" between extremes but the "narrow way" between precipices.— Donald G. Bloesch
