Enter through the Narrow Gate
If a dog can think of God, it will assume that God is a kind of dog.
If a cat can think of God, it will suppose that God is a kind of cat. If a bad man can think of God, he can at most think that God is a kind of bad man. If an abnormal man can think about God, he must think that God is a kind of abnormal man.
But, as Christ Jesus is a righteous man, He can see that God is super righteous.
So, the Bible says, "Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the way that leads to life, and only a few find it ."
To love a dog or a cat is a kind of wide and broad way to be reciprocally pleased psychologically. Bur to love a righteous man or a holy man is a narrow gate to get satisfaction in return, since you must always feel how bad and mean you are while facing such a man.
In other word, do not trust a popular man. A popular priest is a kind of contradictory expression. Christ Jesus must have been also a narrow gate for ancient Jewish people, even though thousands admitted that He was a holy man who could exercise miracles.

Mar 7:14 And when he had called all the people unto him, he said unto them, Hearken unto me every one of you, and understand:
Mar 7:15 There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him can defile him: but the things which come out of him, those are they that defile the man.
