The path of life that you go together with the Lord, even though it may be difficult,
is believing in God, the Holy Spirit, and the Holy Son,
listening to the Word of the Holy Son through the savior,
and keeping that Word even though it may be hard in the world.
This path is not as comfortable as the path leading to Hell.
This is the path of life that you climb up to Heaven.
Heaven is located above, so it is hard to go since the path is ascending;
Hell, Abyss, and Hades is located below,
so it is easy to go since the path is descending.
