Et sic de similibus references:

The gate to Heaven is wide open, yet few they are who enter thereby.
Jhn 10:9
I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.
Mat 7:14
Because strait [is] the gate, and narrow [is] the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

Many are called, yet few are chosen because  they do not respond to the call.
Mat 20:16
So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen.
Jer 5:21
Hear now this, O foolish people, and without understanding; which have eyes, and see not; which have ears, and hear not:
Eze 12:2
Son of man, thou dwellest in the midst of a rebellious house, which have eyes to see, and see not; they have ears to hear, and hear not: for they [are] a rebellious house.
Mar 8:18
Having eyes, see ye not? and having ears, hear ye not? and do ye not remember?

One pathway leads to Heaven and everlasting life and many pathways lead to destruction and eternal death.
Pro 12:28
In the way of righteousness [is] life; and [in] the pathway [thereof there is] no death.
Jhn 14:6
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Rom 3:10-18
As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.
They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
Their throat [is] an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps [is] under their lips:
Whose mouth [is] full of cursing and bitterness:
Their feet [are] swift to shed blood:
Destruction and misery [are] in their ways:
And the way of peace have they not known:
There is no fear of God before their eyes.

Yet those pathways are filled with people in a hurry to get to their goal of destruction, while the pathway that leads to life is virtually empty.
Pro 14:12
There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof [are] the ways of death.

Come, Says the Spirit of God!
Rev 22:17
And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.

Come, Says the Lamb of God!
Mat 11:28
Come unto me, all [ye] that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Jhn 7:37
In the last day, that great [day] of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.

Let all that hear the call, respond and come.
Isa 34:1
Come near, ye nations, to hear; and hearken, ye people: let the earth hear, and all that is therein; the world, and all things that come forth of it.
Isa 43:9
Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the people be assembled: who among them can declare this, and shew us former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may be justified: or let them hear, and say, [It is] truth.

By listening to the Voice of God you can find everlasting salvation.
Jhn 5:25
Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.
Mat 7:24-25
Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:
And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.
Mat 12:50
For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.

By listening to the voice of other people and going with the masses you will find everlasting destruction.
Mat 7:13
Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide [is] the gate, and broad [is] the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
Mat 15:13-14
But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.
Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.
