When my children hear godliness out of my mouth and they see wickedness in my life, then I point them to heaven and I lead them to hell.
Would anyone choose Hell over Heaven? YES! Why? Pride. They don't want to go in the only way you can go in, on your knees. They don't want to admit they are a failure, that their life is a mess.
There are no freelance Christians; there is no solo-flying to heaven.
