Contributed by Pastor Norman Bailey, Overseer on Aug 10, 2018

Many at the last day are going to be very disappointed thinking they were going to heaven to find out that they were on the wrong road. Only those who travel the strait and narrow way will make it in. Those that do the will of God by obeying his word.
