What is the difficulty of getting into heaven?

What a silly statement.

It is easy but not simple, is the right way around.

easy to believe in what is right, but not simple, as belief is in righteousness. ( the righteousness of Christ and NOT OURSELVES)

No, it's not easy. It is simple, but it is not within the power of a man. It is not easy for a man to believe in righteous by his own power. In fact, it's impossible.

The young rich ruler wanted to do it but could not. Judas wanted to do it but could not. Demas wanted to do it but could not. Felix wanted to do it but could not.

It's simple...yet people do not have the power, not by their own will. Paul tells us that in Romans 6. Jesus tells us that in John 6 (He says it twice, in fact).

In the most basic terms for a child to understand, How hard or easy is it to get into heaven?
In other words, Is it easy to obtain salvation or is it hard for the joe shmoes of the world?

The answer is found in the Bible. Start reading, begin trusting and obeying, depending on the power of God alone to save you.
