1
00:00:01,610 --> 00:00:04,830
It has been said, if you say something

2
00:00:04,830 --> 00:00:08,610
enough with a combined loud voice and keep

3
00:00:08,610 --> 00:00:13,310
repeating it, people will eventually begin to believe

4
00:00:13,310 --> 00:00:13,750
it.

5
00:00:13,890 --> 00:00:18,530
As seen in the recent legislation and legalization

6
00:00:18,530 --> 00:00:23,430
of sodomy as an acceptable alternate lifestyle, as

7
00:00:23,430 --> 00:00:28,110
sexual perversion in society has become recognized and

8
00:00:28,110 --> 00:00:32,590
promoted by our governments because of the loud

9
00:00:32,590 --> 00:00:36,430
voice that was heard heralding it.

10
00:00:36,910 --> 00:00:40,010
And behind it all is the satanic one

11
00:00:40,010 --> 00:00:43,810
whose desire is the destruction of the traditional

12
00:00:43,810 --> 00:00:44,650
family.

13
00:00:45,270 --> 00:00:49,230
So too, as in the affairs of politics

14
00:00:49,230 --> 00:00:53,210
and governments, we have been told by modern

15
00:00:53,210 --> 00:00:57,970
evangelism that getting to heaven is easy.

16
00:00:58,930 --> 00:01:01,510
All you have to do is believe.

17
00:01:02,190 --> 00:01:07,130
Pastors and evangelists have been repeating that same

18
00:01:07,130 --> 00:01:10,730
perversion of the gospel for over 60 years

19
00:01:10,730 --> 00:01:16,250
with a combined loud voice until everyone has

20
00:01:16,250 --> 00:01:19,250
adopted it and believed it was so.

21
00:01:19,750 --> 00:01:24,530
So too is Satan behind this perverted gospel

22
00:01:24,530 --> 00:01:28,090
in the damning of the souls of man.

23
00:01:28,930 --> 00:01:32,010
But it is not easy a thing to

24
00:01:32,010 --> 00:01:32,990
get into heaven.

25
00:01:33,830 --> 00:01:37,990
Rather, it is fraught with great obstacles and

26
00:01:37,990 --> 00:01:39,170
difficulties.

27
00:01:39,790 --> 00:01:43,850
Man's rune nature, whereby he is dead in

28
00:01:43,850 --> 00:01:48,770
sin and trespasses, and man's great adversary, the

29
00:01:48,770 --> 00:01:53,370
devil, whose combined hatred toward all men and

30
00:01:53,370 --> 00:01:58,330
hatred towards Christ is a boiling, seething pot

31
00:01:58,330 --> 00:02:03,390
of trouble spilled upon any soul seeking salvation

32
00:02:03,390 --> 00:02:07,090
and deliverance from his kingdom of darkness.

33
00:02:07,669 --> 00:02:10,470
For the devil will keep his goods in

34
00:02:10,470 --> 00:02:15,550
peace so long as he can ultimately destroy

35
00:02:15,550 --> 00:02:17,630
the souls of man.

36
00:02:18,530 --> 00:02:23,250
Any minister who tells you it is a

37
00:02:23,250 --> 00:02:27,330
easy thing to get to heaven either is

38
00:02:27,330 --> 00:02:30,990
a good man with bad theology or he

39
00:02:30,990 --> 00:02:34,610
is a bad man with selfish motives of

40
00:02:34,610 --> 00:02:38,370
his own advancement as he is only interested

41
00:02:38,370 --> 00:02:42,430
in trafficking in the souls of man to

42
00:02:42,430 --> 00:02:44,570
enlarge his church and ministry.

43
00:02:45,650 --> 00:02:48,930
Satan is so full of pride he swells

44
00:02:48,930 --> 00:02:51,930
up like a bullfrog by his pond.

45
00:02:52,210 --> 00:02:55,150
And any minister who tries to promote himself

46
00:02:55,150 --> 00:02:59,070
and advance himself in the eyes of man

47
00:02:59,070 --> 00:03:03,130
is a man full of satanic pride.

48
00:03:04,030 --> 00:03:07,290
If we take the sayings of Christ literally,

49
00:03:07,910 --> 00:03:11,770
then there is no easy way into heaven.

50
00:03:12,350 --> 00:03:17,710
Jesus declared its great difficulty to his disciples

51
00:03:18,190 --> 00:03:19,810
over and over again.

52
00:03:20,210 --> 00:03:24,850
He informed them, enter ye in at the

53
00:03:24,850 --> 00:03:28,070
straight gate for wide is the gate and

54
00:03:28,070 --> 00:03:32,070
broad is the way that leadeth to destruction.

55
00:03:33,730 --> 00:03:37,490
And not only did our Lord say the

56
00:03:37,490 --> 00:03:42,170
way was difficult by being exclusively narrow and

57
00:03:42,170 --> 00:03:47,670
straight, meaning any attempt by ministers to broaden

58
00:03:47,670 --> 00:03:50,830
that way is to do the devil's biddings

59
00:03:50,830 --> 00:03:55,010
and carry out his errands in misleading the

60
00:03:55,010 --> 00:03:56,330
souls of man.

61
00:03:57,010 --> 00:04:00,110
And the Lord Christ not only stated the

62
00:04:00,110 --> 00:04:04,650
difficulty, he told the masses who would never

63
00:04:04,650 --> 00:04:07,890
find it for regarding perdition.

64
00:04:08,890 --> 00:04:13,390
And many there be which go in there

65
00:04:13,390 --> 00:04:17,730
at a hill fills by the hour with

66
00:04:17,730 --> 00:04:23,010
deceived religious hypocrites who never knew Christ intimately

67
00:04:23,010 --> 00:04:26,910
and of whom were but strangers to Christ

68
00:04:26,910 --> 00:04:28,030
ultimately.

69
00:04:28,810 --> 00:04:32,790
And then will I profess unto them, I

70
00:04:32,790 --> 00:04:36,650
never knew you depart from me, ye that

71
00:04:36,650 --> 00:04:38,290
work iniquity.

72
00:04:39,050 --> 00:04:43,750
In other words, they die outside Christ's blood

73
00:04:43,750 --> 00:04:46,610
and beyond God's grace.

74
00:04:47,070 --> 00:04:51,050
They enter a region that represents the kingdom

75
00:04:51,050 --> 00:04:53,910
they belong to in life for they perish

76
00:04:53,910 --> 00:04:57,690
into outer darkness, never having been brought out

77
00:04:57,690 --> 00:05:00,370
of the devil's kingdom of darkness.

78
00:05:01,050 --> 00:05:05,590
They were deceived, deluded, and defrauded by modern

79
00:05:05,590 --> 00:05:09,950
evangelists to the damning of their eternal soul.

80
00:05:10,950 --> 00:05:15,190
The next time you hear some ignorant pastor

81
00:05:15,190 --> 00:05:18,990
tell you that getting to heaven is an

82
00:05:18,990 --> 00:05:22,730
easy thing, run from that man like you

83
00:05:22,730 --> 00:05:25,950
would flee from a hungry pack of wolves.

84
00:05:26,630 --> 00:05:29,830
At the final judgment day you will not

85
00:05:29,830 --> 00:05:32,150
be able to defend yourself.

86
00:05:32,410 --> 00:05:36,210
At the final judgment day your excuses of

87
00:05:36,210 --> 00:05:41,330
bad ministers and faulty evangelism will not help

88
00:05:41,330 --> 00:05:41,750
you.

89
00:05:41,990 --> 00:05:44,710
You will stand there at the bar of

90
00:05:44,710 --> 00:05:49,050
Almighty God in your own merits and in

91
00:05:49,050 --> 00:05:53,230
your own condition as you were held up

92
00:05:53,230 --> 00:05:58,130
against the strictness and severity of his holy

93
00:05:58,130 --> 00:05:58,790
law.

94
00:05:59,950 --> 00:06:03,350
And you will stand there guilty and condemned

95
00:06:03,350 --> 00:06:07,510
with no sympathy from the judge of all

96
00:06:07,510 --> 00:06:10,510
the earth who must carry out the sentencing

97
00:06:10,510 --> 00:06:13,190
of the law upon the heads of all

98
00:06:13,190 --> 00:06:15,390
guilty lawbreakers.

99
00:06:15,890 --> 00:06:20,250
Jesus already warned you, but you paid him

100
00:06:20,250 --> 00:06:21,870
no, never mind.

101
00:06:22,230 --> 00:06:27,630
He warned, beware of false prophets which come

102
00:06:27,630 --> 00:06:32,090
to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they

103
00:06:32,090 --> 00:06:33,830
are ravening wolves.

104
00:06:35,070 --> 00:06:38,150
I've been in the church, friends, for the

105
00:06:38,150 --> 00:06:41,650
last 60 years, and I've never seen a

106
00:06:41,650 --> 00:06:45,330
time in my life like the day in

107
00:06:45,330 --> 00:06:48,210
which we live now where there is such

108
00:06:48,210 --> 00:06:54,130
an overwhelming prevalence of false prophets and false

109
00:06:54,130 --> 00:06:58,670
teachers occupying the pulpits of the land, and

110
00:06:58,670 --> 00:07:02,210
the astounding thing about it is their prominence

111
00:07:02,210 --> 00:07:05,490
within their apostate denomination.

112
00:07:06,050 --> 00:07:10,730
There is no easy way into heaven, friend,

113
00:07:11,350 --> 00:07:13,890
for it was not easy for God the

114
00:07:13,890 --> 00:07:20,830
Father to sacrifice his only begotten son on

115
00:07:20,830 --> 00:07:25,730
a bloody cross, and it was not easy

116
00:07:25,730 --> 00:07:31,370
for Christ as he sweat the great drops

117
00:07:31,370 --> 00:07:36,970
of blood in his passions at Gethsemane, nor

118
00:07:36,970 --> 00:07:40,430
was it an easy thing for the Son

119
00:07:40,430 --> 00:07:44,490
of God to be arrested by mere mortals

120
00:07:44,490 --> 00:07:47,670
when he could have at any time had

121
00:07:47,670 --> 00:07:51,890
10,000 legions of mighty angels for his

122
00:07:51,890 --> 00:07:56,250
rescue, nor was it an easy thing to

123
00:07:56,250 --> 00:08:01,750
be manhandled and abused by base Roman soldiers

124
00:08:01,750 --> 00:08:06,930
who put a purple robe upon him, and

125
00:08:06,930 --> 00:08:09,550
a reed in his hand, and a thorny

126
00:08:09,550 --> 00:08:13,930
crown upon his head, and then mocked the

127
00:08:13,930 --> 00:08:19,330
Prince of Glory, and spit their foul phlegm

128
00:08:19,330 --> 00:08:21,650
into his innocent face.

129
00:08:22,130 --> 00:08:25,610
Was it an easy thing to be ridiculed

130
00:08:25,610 --> 00:08:28,790
by sinners and punched in the face by

131
00:08:28,790 --> 00:08:30,750
his tormentors?

132
00:08:31,169 --> 00:08:35,169
It was no easy thing to stand trial

133
00:08:35,169 --> 00:08:38,470
before a Roman governor when there was never

134
00:08:38,470 --> 00:08:40,990
a man in the history of the world

135
00:08:40,990 --> 00:08:45,090
who stood more innocent before his judge than

136
00:08:45,090 --> 00:08:45,630
he.

137
00:08:46,290 --> 00:08:49,970
It was no easy thing for Christ to

138
00:08:49,970 --> 00:08:53,890
be stripped and scourged by a cruel and

139
00:08:53,890 --> 00:08:58,810
bloody taskmaster until his back was flayed open

140
00:08:58,810 --> 00:09:02,490
to resemble ground hamburger meat.

141
00:09:02,710 --> 00:09:06,830
No, friends, I will not lie to you

142
00:09:06,830 --> 00:09:09,750
and tell you it is an easy thing

143
00:09:09,750 --> 00:09:12,730
to get to heaven when it was not

144
00:09:12,730 --> 00:09:15,770
easy for the Son of God to be

145
00:09:15,770 --> 00:09:19,790
fastened to a cross by nails being driven

146
00:09:19,790 --> 00:09:22,930
in his tender hands and feet.

147
00:09:23,470 --> 00:09:26,550
It was no easy thing to hear the

148
00:09:26,550 --> 00:09:30,550
religious mob that day cry out against him

149
00:09:30,550 --> 00:09:35,350
saying, he saved others, let him save himself.

150
00:09:36,270 --> 00:09:38,830
And it was no easy thing for that

151
00:09:38,830 --> 00:09:42,050
blessed Savior to have the sins of the

152
00:09:42,050 --> 00:09:47,290
world laid upon him and thereby experiencing the

153
00:09:47,290 --> 00:09:50,670
turned face of the Father and crying out,

154
00:09:50,970 --> 00:09:55,790
my God, my God, why hast thou forsaken

155
00:09:55,790 --> 00:09:56,610
me?

156
00:09:57,630 --> 00:10:02,530
No, friend, no matter what the majority opinion

157
00:10:02,530 --> 00:10:05,570
is in the church, it is no easy

158
00:10:05,570 --> 00:10:08,910
thing to find Christ in salvation.

159
00:10:09,810 --> 00:10:13,670
The only believed gospel is a hellish assault

160
00:10:13,670 --> 00:10:16,090
upon the souls of men.

161
00:10:16,890 --> 00:10:20,910
There is no easy way into heaven but

162
00:10:20,910 --> 00:10:25,010
by a narrow way of heartfelt repentance toward

163
00:10:25,010 --> 00:10:28,350
God and faith in his dear son Jesus.

164
00:10:29,190 --> 00:10:32,410
And that faith means to believe on him

165
00:10:32,410 --> 00:10:35,170
by receiving Christ as Lord.

166
00:10:35,690 --> 00:10:38,610
When a man or woman is awakened to

167
00:10:38,610 --> 00:10:41,610
their lost condition and gets under the terror

168
00:10:41,610 --> 00:10:43,810
of the law and has a sense of

169
00:10:43,810 --> 00:10:47,430
curse for sin, then they will flee to

170
00:10:47,430 --> 00:10:51,070
the only refuge and remedy for sin in

171
00:10:51,070 --> 00:10:53,070
the Lord Jesus Christ.

172
00:10:54,110 --> 00:10:59,270
Jesus declares, I am the way, the truth,

173
00:10:59,630 --> 00:11:00,610
and the life.

174
00:11:01,130 --> 00:11:05,330
No man cometh unto the Father but by

175
00:11:05,330 --> 00:11:05,950
me.

176
00:11:06,930 --> 00:11:09,690
Flee to Christ, friend, and get an interest

177
00:11:09,690 --> 00:11:13,750
in him and surrender all you are to

178
00:11:13,750 --> 00:11:17,170
all he is, and he is Lord.

179
00:11:17,770 --> 00:11:20,430
There is no easy way in, but there

180
00:11:20,430 --> 00:11:23,010
is only one way in, and that is

181
00:11:23,010 --> 00:11:27,350
by bleeding and dying Christ as your remedy

182
00:11:27,350 --> 00:11:28,690
for sin.
