What if you had a job where you worked overtime, but didn’t get any benefit or reward from it? You spent all this time and effort working hard, but you earned no extra money. That would feel rather defeating, wouldn’t it? Well today, Pastor Johnny mentions that no amount of effort will get you into heaven. It’s simply a generous gift God offers if you’ll only believe. So instead of getting stuck in religious rituals and rules, rest in knowing that believing is enough…not hours of work or effort put forth.
