Dear reader, has the cheapness in presentation and apparent cheesiness in content, put you off these web pages so far?   Whatz more, are you just about to disembark "outtahere" into browsing somewhere else, due to what you may conclude as an oversimplification written here, to life and itz meaning?  Before you do, just remember the Bible (the highest selling book in history, as well as the most controversial) says this (leaving no alternative):

"Enter ye in at the strait (straight) gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait (straight as a dye that iz) is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it."

This means the way down to perdition, which most take, is wide and broad and very accommodating.  Whereas, the way to eternal life is straight and narrow, where few make it in the end.  Iz this not the most scariest and most sobering thing you will ever hear?  It should be!

Remember also that Jesus said to his Dad in heaven in regards to the simple truths of the gospel, "thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes."  Meaning, the truth is not going to be found in clever, slick and sophisticated things, but in what is base, simple and humble.  Moreover, nor is it going to be found in appearance and outer display, but the inward parts and the inward thoughts.

What has God hid from the wise and prudent and revealed unto babes?  You need to know, this is the bottom line!  Everybody needs to know in fact!  If you want to be truly wise, in the eyes of God that'iz, and not in the eyes of man (the former being more important by the way) then you need to most urgently take heed to what Jesus was and iz really saying. 

This is the most crucial and life changing thing you will ever hear or read.  Furthermore, you will not get this in itz truest and rawest sense by attending the middle-class church around the block (but only a sweetened and distorted version to lock you into their institution and "God", and keep you from the real one).  Nor will you get this by going to Bible college, a seminary, getting a degree in theology, nor by any type of diploma covering any topic or idea!  In fact, this has got nothing to do with education or training in any sense of the word, which you would've' been accustomed to.  Stay tuned and get ready, coz here it iz ...!

In a line ... for God to speak directly to babes and the base of this world is the good news of the kingdom of heaven (the gospel) for dummies, bypassing the smart, clever and lofty.  It is aimed at the humble sinner while excluding the righteous do-gooder.  In the wisdom of God it is for those who come before God childlike and empty, irrespective of the world's implications or consequences.  In contrast, the overly smart and froward will miss out with dire repercussion.  Here's what the word of God also says:

"Let no man deceive himself.  If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise."

Tough stuff!  But true nevertheless!  Coz God is not after "ladies and gentlemen" who are out to give their image an edge or an airbrush in society, or before their emulating peers, while using God just for credence sake!  If you are into this and adamant to remain, then you could be at the wrong website.  If you are keen to listen, then allow me to round off this page:

At the end of the day this web page in a nutshell is only an online "lighthouse" and hopefully a valuable navigation aid at the same time.  It is not a destination, however.  The new Jerusalem (the promised land) in heaven is.  If you make it across the river with or without the aid of these pages, then this is all that matters ...  "welcome to the kingdom my friend!"

The bottom line is there is no hope, no salvation, and no true purpose outside of Jesus.  He came as God in the flesh and the light of the world, and is the only way outta here and back to God.  Turn now before it is too late (that will take guts and admit YOU were wrong after all)!  Better to cry now and laugh later, than laugh now and cry later!  Just the same ...  better to be a fool now and wise later, than wise now and a fool later.  Hope to see you in the eternal city, beyond Today, should you hear and obey, and heed the narrow way!
