This is just a thought I'm sharing that came to me while I was in the shower a little while ago.
Why are so many people reluctant to follow Christ the way that he asks us to follow him? Why do people feel that it doesn't take "all that" to be a believer? Why do people not take salvation seriously? Well, I believe a portion of the problem is because so many people look at holiness as if looking backwards through a telescope... they see a very distant narrow view of things.
