Joshua's ministry was three years of preaching, sometimes three times a day, and although there were some high and low points, I could never remember the sermons word for word, but here's the gist of almost every sermon I ever heard Joshua give. You should be nice to people, even creeps. And if you:a) believed that Joshua was the Son of God (and)b) he had come to save you from sin (and)c) acknowledged the Holy Spirit within you (became as a little child, he would say) (and)d) didn't blaspheme the Holy Ghost (see c)then you would:e) live foreverf) someplace niceg) probably heavan However, if you:h) sinned (and/or)i) were a hypocrite (and/or)j) valued things over people (and)k) didn't do a, b, c, and d, then you were:l) fucked . Christopher Moore
About This Quote

In this quote, Joshua was preaching to a group of people that had been saved from their sins. He was preaching about how they could live forever if they were nice and did the things he preached. However, if they didn't do those things, they were going to go to hell. It is important to remember that this sermon was given before the death of Jesus. It is possible that Joshua may have been a false prophet who was using Joshua's ministry as a way to spread fear and pain into his listeners hearts.
