I met someone who told me he'd tried to learn Welsh using dualingo or something similar. Trouble was, he said, was that one of the first things he had learned was that "'Dwi'n hoffi coffi" means "I like coffee", which is correct. He thought it was all going to be that easy. No one had told him about mutations and how inflected Welsh can be. In a similar way, though it is easy to come to Christ - simply repent and believe - the Christian life itself can be very demanding. This is why in Luke 14 (28-32) Jesus emphasises the impportance fo counting the cost before beginning. We have to go through many hardships to enter the kingdom of God (Acts 14:22).
