In fact, that is the Gospel. The gospel was good news. He will manage to save us if we don't resist. It means that it is not hard at all for any of us to be saved. But that is not the way most people se salvation.
Most people view the process of salvation as a very difficult situation.
We preachers must take a lot of the blame because we list out all the steps to salvation and have charts and diagrams. People feel that in order to be saved they must try with all zealousness and hard effort and they must study all sorts of deep books and finally, maybe, they might attain salvation. They feel that only few will succeed because of the difficulties and technicalities of the complicated process. Part of the confusion comes from our limited understanding of the Bible. This talks about the gate to heaven.
