Haha wow, that must have been very hard to hear. But it kind of is the truth. When it comes to Heaven, you can only go through who the owner of Heaven said you must go through. And it kind of makes sense.

Think about it. You can't just walk into a grand palace without going through very tight security. And you can't get to the King or Queen without going through his or her right-hand person.

It's a security thing.

But Heaven and hell are not the only places to go. There are so many other places to go. There are so many kingdoms and palaces and you won't need Jesus at all for those other places. But if it's Heaven one is aiming for, then your pastor is right. There is only one way.

The most difficult truth to accept.

I guess it's all a matter of where you aim to go after this life is over. And people are allowed to choose where they wish to go.

And to be completely honest, there is only one truth. If the maker of the car went and bought green paint to paint the car and we are asked the color of the car, I say red and you say blue, that isn’t our truth. We are wrong! We are wrong because of a problem we might have physically, mentally, or spiritually. The truth is that the car is green no matter what we see because it was painted with green paint.

So my truth isn't the truth. Your truth isn't the truth. Only the Truth is.

Sending you Love on your journey, Ari.
