Summary

In Part 3 of The Greatest Lie, Dr. Michael Youssef reveals the unity of Scripture through the Tale of Three Gardens—Eden, Gethsemane, and the final Garden of God. From the first garden came sin, death, and the curse through disobedience. In the middle garden, Gethsemane, Jesus Christ—the last Adam—fully obeyed the Father, crushed Satan’s power, and secured salvation through the cross. Only those who follow Him can enter the final garden of eternal life described in Revelation. Dr. Youssef warns that rejecting Christ alone leads to hell, a real place Jesus Himself described. This message calls for repentance, unwavering faith in God’s Word, and urgent intercession for souls deceived by the greatest lie.

0:00.0	Let's listen together as Dr. Michael Youssef introduces content ahead on this episode of Leading the Way audio.
0:09.0	Now here's the truth, listen carefully. God is not going to send anybody to hell. You must understand that. God is not going to send anybody to hell. He's not going to take people to heaven against
0:22.2	their will either. People take themselves to hell.
0:28.7	You may have heard someone say, how could a loving God send anyone to hell? Well, that thought process,
0:36.5	along with deception from Satan, has led many to believe that
0:40.0	all those who are sincere in their search or longing for God and spiritual things, all roads must
0:46.9	lead to life. Well, that's part of the greatest lie, a lie that is dragging many to the gates of hell
0:53.5	every day. Listen with me now, as Dr. Youssef
0:57.5	helped shine the light of truth on this deception as he begins today's leading the way.
1:04.5	The greatest lie is that Christianity is just a religion among other religions, that Jesus Christ is a savior. He may be my
1:14.8	savior, some people claim, but he's not the savior of the world. That all roads lead to God
1:22.1	and into the light. That Christ is a mere founder of a religion. I wanted to hear me right because that's important.
1:31.3	In many ways, there are a lot of ways I can show you how to refute this. But the aim is not to refute
1:37.4	the greatest lie for the sake of refuting because you can often win the argument and lose the person. And that is not our desire.
1:47.7	Our love for them compels us to help deliver them from the judgment that is coming upon the
1:54.0	world. But make no mistake about it, believing this greatest lie will not get people into eternity in heaven, it will get them
2:03.1	into eternity in a place that Jesus calls hell. And by the way, I never joke about hell.
2:09.4	An old man told me years and years and years ago when I began my ministry, said, don't ever joke
2:14.4	about hell because real people going there.
2:27.4	And that is why our love compels us to tell them the truth, to explain the truth, patiently, lovingly.
2:32.2	And in this message and the next, I'm going to give you indisputable truth.
2:41.5	That is why Jesus and Jesus alone is the truth and the only giver of eternal life.
