The inquirer in verse 23 is not uncommon. People wonder. But here

a narrow door to enter the Kingdom of God. It is </span></span></span><u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="">not</span></span></u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">
as difficult as some would make it - but it is </span></span></span><u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="">far</span></span></u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">
from as easy as others would say and teach. It is far better </span></span></span><u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="">not</span></span></u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">
to listen too closely to fellow human beings. Rather, </span></span></span><u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="">go
back</span></span></u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">
to the true words of Jesus and His apostles. If there are those who
do </span></span></span><u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="">not</span></span></u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">
speak in accordance with God's words - it is because there is </span></span></span><u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="">no

in them. </span></span></span><u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="">Prove</span></span></u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">

Take nothing for granted! The risks are </span></span></span><u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="">too
great</span></span></u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">.

</span></span></i><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">a
heaven to gain, and a hell to shun! Jesus and His apostles said so!
Is it worth taking a chance by listening to and following those who
do </span></span></span><u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="">not</span></span></u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">
line up with these words? For </span></span></span><u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="">me</span></span></u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">
- I have made up my mind 66 years ago - I have made my choice - I
</span></span></span><u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="">side</span></span></u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">
with Jesus and His apostles, and His 8 NT writers! I find that </span></span></span><u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="">here</span></span></u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">
there is safety! - </span></span></span><u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="">here</span></span></u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">
there is security. Eternity is too long a time to play fast and loose
with. Our 70-90 years down here is altogether too short a time to put
all our hopes on, and ignore the possibility of a very long future in
one of two places.</span></span></span></font></p>

News of His Kingdom to reach </span></span></span><u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="">every</span></span></u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">

choice</span></span></u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">
- but at the Judgment - the foolish ones will be without excuse! They
heard, but either neglected - or made the wrong choice. I have </span></span></span><u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="">not</span></span></u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">
neglected, and I believe I have made the </span></span></span><u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="">correct</span></span></u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">

fellow human beings to join me in my choice. Why not? you have little
to lose. If you deny yourself in this life - it is only up to 90 or
so years at the most - but </span></span></span><u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="">then</span></span></u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">

Him! How sad! But the </span></span></span><u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="">small</span></span></u><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="">
