In Psalm 118:15-29" we see a prophecy of the humiliation and exalt ion of Jesus and the suffering and glory that will follow.
V15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation IS in the tents of righteous; The right hand of The Lord does valiantly. V 16 I shall not die but live, and declare the works of The Lord.
In verse 19 Open to me the gates of righteousness; I will go through them, and I will praise The Lord. David asked permission to enter the gates of heaven. Verse 21 I will praise Yôu for Yôu answered me, and have become my salvation. We see him thanking God for granting him admission. He thanked God for the " gate of The Lord." Through which the righteous enter. We KNOW this gate IS Jesus! In John 14:6, Jesus said, " I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." HE IS THE ONLY GATE, but He is not only the gate. Jesus is also the cornerstone, which the builders rejected. In Acts 4:10, Peter accused the priests and religious scribes of being the ones who rejected Jesus. The One who was rejected became the Chief cornerstone v 11 the humiliated was exalted, as we see in Philippians 2. Ultimately , we also see that God will reject those who reject Jesus.
Father God, guide me today to do all things that wll bring glory and Honor to Yôu Amen. For it is with God all things are possible.

Therefore all people need to have an opportunity to know of and believe in Christ. Since Christ is the Saviour of this world we would think God would want all people to have the opportunity to choose Christ. We all need to spread the gospel to Jesus Christ so all can have that opportunity.
