I see it somewhat like the Old and New Testament and Heaven.
It is hard to get into Heaven. The water's going down, it's a mighty tight squeeze. The floods of Noah; God promised not to destroy the world like that again. Jesus is coming and there will be a new way.
All alone the Capitan (God) stands. He hasn't heard from his deck hands (prophets and other religious people of the Old Testament). The gambler (the devil) makes his bet with God. It's the second half of the cruise (New Testament) and you know He (God) hates to lose. God sends his only Son to save everyone and win the bet.
From Matthew 19:24 "Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God." A mighty tight squeeze indeed.
