               of the kingdom of God because you believe in Jesus. But it

               says that God will surely reward you many times as much
               when you firmly abandon the things that you must discard
               for the sake of your faith. I have certainly experienced that
               God has rewarded everything when we gave up everything
               for the sake of our faith. I have seen clearly that God has

               rewarded when we cleanly gave up something for the sake of
               our faith, instead of fighting each other as if we cannot live
               without it, and instead of arguing and fighting each other
               about something belongs to ours or not. It means, if you
               want to die for believing in Jesus, then you will live, and if

               you can give up something that you must give up, and if you
               rather yield to others, then God will reward you. And it says
               such faith has no reason to fail to receive eternal life.
                    So faith does not take an easy way. In faith, there is

               nothing about ‘roughly doing’. The Bible does not say to do
               things roughly. Even in the family relationship, if you truly
               believe in Jesus, it says that you must abandon the cosmos
               world and turn around by faith, but it does not say to com-
               promise at all. Jesus said that love the Lord your God with all

               your heart and with all your mind and with all your soul and
               with all your strength, but He never said that love Him mod-
               erately. Faith is to follow the way of God. Faith is not to be
               the double-minded opportunist who says Amen when things

               are favorable, but who says excuses when things are not.
