Utilised for her tew Proverbs 14 12 "there Is away thxt secsnetii right unto man. but th ends thereof are tb ways of death." "The right way is not always the easy way God wants spiritual giants, and people who are heroic to the degree that they will be willing to sacrifice for the great cause of Christ. A lot of folk are looking for an easy way to get to Heaven If living a Christian life meant an easy, effortless way (here would be more people wanting to travel that way. In fa t on of the devices of Satan Is to give folk a sense of ease and security, without an ex pet fence of dalvathMi Take the way of ease, comfort, and follow the line of last resistance, and you will be sure to damn your Immortal and never dying soul." Be sure and hear thia dynamic Swedish evangelist. Services will continue iilghth beginning at 7:15 with a sacred prelude on the vibrahprp by Mias Mary Olson.
