WARNING : Jesus Gives It Straight With No Chaser, Can You Handle It?

"Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it."
— Matthew 7:13–14
“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. 22 Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ 23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’
— Matthew 7:21–23

Most folks today are enjoying a gospel message that deletes the message of repentance. They believe in an all-caring, nonjudgmental God who requires no repentance or a change in their lifestyle. They will say things like, "I believe in Jesus Christ, but my God is not judgmental.

My God would never send a person to hell. But I am a Christian.

"Hey, you can’t have it both ways. You can't make it up as you go.

This watered down gospel that most believe in today is extremely dangerous because it gives a sense of false assurance to the person who believes it. In the Bible we see false prophets who give false assurance. In Jeremiah 6:14, God says, "They have also healed the hurt of My people slightly, saying, 'Peace, peace!' when there is no peace."

Hey, how would you like to go to the doctor when you are having a heart attack, and have the doctor tell you, "Oh, you are fine, just walk it off(as one of my favorite football coaches would say) or You are being so dramatic! You will be OK. "There are ministers today who say, "God loves you and everything is fine. You can do whatever you want and live however you want to live. Let's just love one another and have a great time."

This is a false gospel. Yes, God loves us. Yes, God receives any person who comes to Him. But He asks us to repent. He asks us to turn from our sins. If we are not willing to do so, then we are not experiencing Biblical faith. And thus, we are not going to receive what the Bible describes as genuine salvation.
