The Decision We All Must Make (And The Danger of Deception In It)
Jesus warns us in today’s passage that “many” will be shocked on the last day to find out that they never truly belonged to him. Though they called him “Lord” and performed many works in his name, he will claim that he never knew them. How, then, can we be confident that we are truly following Jesus? In this message from David Platt from Matthew 7:12–27, we are confronted with the decision about whether we will enter by the narrow gate or the wide gate—whether we will truly follow Jesus and live by his teaching or merely maintain a superficial attachment to him. Gratefully, entering God’s kingdom isn’t ultimately based on our own obedience but on the life, death, and resurrection of Christ. Salvation comes by relying on him.

You are listening to Radical with David Platt, a weekly podcast with sermons and messages from pastor, author and teacher David Platt. So this is the last sermon in this series on the greatest sermon ever preached, the Sermon on the Mount. So for, if you are here, or maybe just joining in today with just a little recap, we started a journey at the beginning of September, in the beginning of Matthew, chapter 5, where we've walked through, and the way I would describe it is Jesus casting vision for the good life, the better way to live in this world and in light of the world to come, and so I thought it might be helpful to give a quick recap of the whole sermon. That then will set the stage where we're going to look at today, which is a climactic and shocking conclusion from Jesus that I think would have left the original hearers with their jaws on the ground, with massive ramifications not just for their lives but for every one of our lives in this room. So here's the summary. We'll put this up on the screen. End of Matthew, chapter 4. So read verse 23. So now just turn back a couple pages.
Speaker 1:Matthew 4.23 says Jesus went throughout all Galilee teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom and healing every disease and every affliction among the people. So this is the lead up to the Sermon on the Mount. What Jesus is about to do is to teach and proclaim, preach the gospel. That means good news of the kingdom. That's what the Sermon on the Mount is about. This is the good news of the kingdom, which is totally different than the kingdoms of this world. So this whole sermon is about contrasting the kingdom of God with the kingdoms of this world. So this whole sermon is about contrasting the kingdom of God with the kingdoms of this world. And Jesus says over and over again the kingdom of God, the kingdom of heaven, is so much better than the kingdoms of this world, and the kingdoms of this world are all ultimately false and fading. So if you want to live your life for what counts, what matters, then don't live for the kingdoms of this world, live for the kingdom of heaven. There's only one true kingdom. So in the summary we're about to walk through really quickly.
Speaker 1:I'm going to use two words over and over again True and better, because I think that's what Jesus is talking about A true and better life focused on the true and better kingdom. So Jesus starts with a picture of true and better happiness. Holcern begins with the Beatitudes, this counter-cultural description of blessing, of happiness that's better than anything this world offers. So true and better happiness comes from being poor in spirit and meek and merciful, from being a peacemaker and even being persecuted in the world because you're living for a reward in another world. That's a totally different way to live, and Jesus is saying it's better. The way of my kingdom, the kingdom of heaven, is better, it's happier than the way of this world. True and better happiness, which then leads to a picture of true and better influence, as Jesus says, to live as salt and light in the world, in a way that people see this world. True and better happiness, which then leads to a picture of true and better influence, as Jesus says, to live as salt and light in the world, in a way that people see in your life a reflection of the goodness of God, the King, and give glory to him in heaven. Which then leads to true and better righteousness.
Speaker 1:Jesus makes the bold statement in Matthew 5, 17 that he has come to fulfill all of God's law perfectly. Then he says in verse 20, I'm calling you to a righteousness that's far greater than even the elite religious leaders of your day. This is a righteousness that goes to the heart of who you are, and from there he addresses turning from anger and turning from lust. It talks about faithfulness in marriage and integrity in speech. It teaches about not retaliating when wronged and loving your enemy, which then leads into a picture of true and better religion. Jesus takes head-on the hypocrisy that was prevalent in the giving, praying, fasting of his day. He says no, true and better religion finds reward not in doing religious activity for the approval of others, but for God alone. And in this whole section Jesus talks about the reward that's found in what only God, the Father, sees.
Speaker 1:When we studied this passage, we saw the most important part of your life and my life is the part that only God sees. It's the most important part of your life which then leads to true and better treasure. Jesus says don't live for treasure in the kingdoms of this world. They won't last. Live for treasure in the kingdom of heaven. It's going to last forever. So stop serving worship and serving and worshiping money and stuff in this world. Serve and worship God alone. Live for the true and better treasure you have in him and don't do this just for him or for the good of others. Do this for yourselves. Store up treasure for yourself, true and better treasure, which then leads to true and better trust.
Speaker 1:Three times in the last part of Matthew 6, jesus says don't be anxious, don't be worried about things in this world. I've come to set you free from worry and fear through trust in me and in my love for you. Seek me in my kingdom. You can trust me with all these things. Don't worry about anything, including tomorrow. Trust in me.
Speaker 1:Which then brings us to chapter 7, where Jesus gives us a picture of true and better relationships with God. We saw God's generosity toward us in prayer last week, as he promises to give us good things when we ask, and our relationships with others, including the way we judge the mercy we show to others. And Jesus makes this summary statement in Matthew 7, 12. Whatever you wish that others would do to you, do also to them, for this is the law and the prophets Love others as yourself. That will change the way you live. So all of that leads to this last section, which we're gonna look at today, which I'm gonna call true and better faith, where Jesus gives us three contrasting pictures that bring people at the end of the sermon to a point of decision. So this is where everything comes to a head, and if you're taking notes, here's what God's word is gonna say to everybody in this room today. So just bring the sermon not to a bunch of people 2,000 years ago, but right to where you're sitting right now.
Speaker 1:So two things. One everyone will make a spiritual decision. So in these last verses, jesus is about to divide humanity into two groups People who choose the kingdom of God and people who choose the kingdoms of this world. And every single person's life, now and for all of eternity, hinges on the choice, the decision you make between those two. And not to choose is not an option. In other words, there's no riding the fence here. Every single person in this room will either live for the kingdom of God or for the kingdoms of this world. And if you decide to live for the kingdom of God or for the kingdoms of this world, and if you decide to live for the kingdom of God, then your life will look a certain way now and forever. And if you live for the kingdoms of this world, then your life will look a certain way now and forever, a very different way. Everyone will make this spiritual decision. That's the first thing God's Word is going to say to us today.
Speaker 1:The second thing God's Word is going to say is beware the danger of spiritual deception, meaning you can actually think you've decided for the kingdom of God and others can think you've decided for the kingdom of God, when the reality is you're living for the kingdoms of this world. You're deceived. Maybe another way to put it you can think and even say that you are a Christian, when the reality is you are not. Jesus is about to tell us about many people he's going to use the word many, not a few, but many people who will be shocked in eternity to find out that, though they thought they were in the kingdom of God, they were not. They thought they were going to heaven, but they were not. We're about to see that it is possible to be completely fooled about your own spiritual condition in a way that affects you now and will affect you forever, which makes these words from Jesus extremely, eternally important for all of us to hear. Whether it's your first time in church or you've grown up in church, whether you're a member or a leader in the church, any one of us can be spiritually deceived, which means all of us need to listen really closely to what Jesus says here. No matter who you are, what your background is, how old you are, this is eternally important to hear.
Speaker 1:So start in verses 13 and 14. Jesus begins the conclusion to this sermon with these words Enter by the narrow gate, for the gate is wide and the way is easy. That leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many, for the gate is narrow and the way is hard. That leads to life, and those who find it are few. So do you see the decision, spiritual decision every one of us must make in these verses? Two gates in front of each of us, with two ways or paths behind them. One gate is narrow, the other gate is wide. One way is hard, the other way is easy, and most people choose the wide gate that's easy.
Speaker 1:Jesus is telling us here that we are prone to gravitate toward what is easy and popular in this world, toward the wide gate in this world that's inviting to us, that's attractive and alluring to us with all this world promises us. It's a gate and a way without rules, without restrictions, without requirements. It's a way that's paved with whatever you want. It's you in control of your life, however you want it to look. And don't be mistaken, jesus is saying this way can be religious. Remember the context here. Jesus is speaking to people who are very religious, some of them religious leaders, meaning there's a religious road that you can control and make it what you want it to be.
Speaker 1:So, yeah, maybe you choose to go to church all the time, or you choose to go to church here or there. If you go to church at all, maybe you choose to stay distant from the church. You pray here or there, read the Bible occasionally All while you essentially live the way you want to live. You call yourself a Christian. As you make the plans you want to make for your life, you're not actually following him wherever he might lead you. You're following wherever it feels most comfortable or makes the most sense to you. You prioritize what you want to prioritize in your life. You spend money the way you want to spend money. You spend your time the way you want to spend your time and you tack Jesus on as part of all these things.
Speaker 1:Did you know that, according to multiple research polls, I found approximately two-thirds of Americans today profess to be Christians Two out of every three people in our country. But did you know that, out of those who profess to be Christians, the same research shows that many of their lifestyle patterns look exactly the same as non-christians, as well as their beliefs? Over half of professing christians don't believe in moral absolutes, in a sense of right and wrong. That applies to everyone, including us. Over half of of professing Christians believe that people are basically good and that if we do enough good things we'll go to heaven. Over half of professing Christians believe in karma.
Speaker 1:There is a wide, supposedly Christian way that's easy, that's accommodating to whatever we might believe or however we might want to live in this world. And it actually looks a lot like this world and many take it. The only problem is it's not actually the way of Jesus. Jesus says enter by the narrow gate, and the word he uses for narrow there carries the idea of experiencing pressure, even tribulation, pushing through it, which makes sense in light of everything Jesus has said before this right. This is where the whole sermon started.
Speaker 1:Matthew 5.3,. Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Let's face it the poor in spirit are not rewarded in this world. Matthew 5.5,. Blessed are the meek, they shall inherit the earth. Meekness is not the key to climbing the ladder in this world. Meekness is hard in this world, as is verse 6, truly hungering and thirsting for righteousness. That will lead your life to look very different in this world. I mentioned verses 10 and 11 earlier. Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you, falsely, on my account and no one in their right mind naturally likes to be reviled and persecuted and lied about. Then, after this, we see all of Jesus' instructions about fleeing lust, pursuing purity in your thoughts, your speech, your motives, not getting revenge, praying for your enemies.
Speaker 1:This is not the easy, popular way to live in this world. It was really interesting. We were in Atlanta, metro Atlanta, for Thanksgiving with my family and I met another family one Sunday Husband, wife, seven kids, five of whom are adopted and a couple of whom have significant special needs, one of whom was in a wheelchair and they shared their story with me. The husband and wife grew up in totally secular homes in the West and Northeast, but when they moved to the South and saw more churches, they decided we should go to church. It seems like the moral thing to do. That would, yeah, seems beneficial for our two kids at the time. And the way the husband put it to me. He said we basically decided we'd become cultural Christians and we tack on these moral teachings of Jesus to our comfortable, successful lives. But then something happened that they didn't see coming. They actually met Jesus and they realized that following him means him changing everything in their lives. So they followed him and he turned their lives upside down, leaving them to expand their family by caring for children in need and just talking with them.
Speaker 1:I could tell this road has not been easy. But this husband and this wife said with tears of joy in their eyes Jesus saved our lives from ourselves and he has given us true life. Now I'm not saying that true life is only found in adopting five children, but I am saying what Matthew 7 is saying that when you follow Jesus, you don't keep your life as you know it. When you follow Jesus, you lose your life as you know it. You find entirely new life that looks totally different from this world. Cultural Christianity is not true Christianity. It is impossible to follow Christ and live like the culture around you, which is not an easy way to live. It includes massive changes in your life that go against the grain of this world, which is why Jesus is saying the gate that leads to life is narrow. The way is hard that leads to life in this world, and only a few find it. Why only a few? Because we're all prone to navigate toward what's easy and popular in the world, and even to call it Christian, to manufacture our own version of Christianity. That's a far cry from the call of Jesus Christ, which all leads to what he says.
Speaker 1:Next. Take a look at verse 15. Beware of false prophets who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will recognize them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thorn bushes, are figs from thistles. So every healthy tree bears good fruit, but the diseased tree bears bad fruit. A healthy tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a diseased tree bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus you will recognize them by their fruits. And then keep going in verse 21.
Speaker 1:Not everyone who says to me, lord, lord, will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father, who is in heaven. On that day, many will say to me Lord, lord, do we not prophesy in your name and cast out demons in your name and do many mighty works in your name? Then I will declare to them I never knew you. Depart from me, you workers of lawlessness. Do you see what Jesus is saying here? Not only are we prone to gravitate for what's easy and popular in this world, but we can profess publicly what we do not possess personally.
Speaker 1:In verse 15, jesus starts addressing false prophets, false professors of Christianity. They come to you in sheep's clothing On the outside. They profess to know God, they speak like they know him and don't miss what we read in verse 21. They even address Jesus as Lord with great fervency. Lord, lord, are you seeing this? You or I, any one of us can profess publicly something we don't actually possess personally. We saw this earlier in the stats I shared Two-thirds of Americans professing to be Christian but not actually believing or obeying the words of Christ. That leads to one clear conclusion they're not all actually followers of Christ. Get the picture here in Matthew 7.
Speaker 1:These people are prophesying, driving out demons and performing miracles. How is that possible if they don't truly know God or have faith in Jesus? And the answer is all throughout the Bible, god uses all kinds of people who are opposed to him to actually accomplish his work. Whether it's Balaam on his donkey prophesying the Old Testament, or the sons of Sceva casting out demons in the New Testament. All kinds of people say and do all kinds of things, but the bottom line question is do you actually know Jesus? That's the language Jesus uses. I never knew you. You were doing all kinds of things in my name, but you are not doing them in personal relationship with me. Think about that. Is that possible To be a member in the church, to be a leader in the church, to be a professing Christian, but not personally know Christ, but not personally know Christ According to Jesus? It's not just possible, it's probable for many.
Speaker 1:I mentioned this earlier. See it now, verse 22. On that day, many will say to me Lord, lord, you will not do all these things in your name and I will declare them. I never knew you. Depart from me. Those verses keep me awake at night as a pastor, to think that there may be many people not a few, many people sitting here on a Sunday morning who think they are safe spiritually when they are not. Many people who think their eternity is secure but will be shocked to stand before Jesus one day and hear him say I never knew you Away from me.
Speaker 1:This is not Jesus speaking to irreligious people. This is Jesus speaking to devoutly religious people doing all kinds of religious activity in his name. Which means the most important question for every single one of our lives is this Do you personally know and love and worship and walk with Jesus as the Lord of everything in your life? Not just do you believe in Jesus, even the of everything in your life. Not just do you believe in Jesus. Even the demons believe in Jesus. Big deal.
Speaker 1:The word for know here carries connotations of intimacy and closeness in relationship. I was meeting this week with someone who's visited NBC on a couple of occasions. Is exploring Christianity. We were talking about coming to faith in Jesus and how. It's not usually on a couple of occasions is exploring Christianity? We were talking about coming to faith in Jesus and how. It's not usually like a lightning bolt that just comes out of the sky, but view it more as a process of getting to know someone.
Speaker 1:It's not some transaction where you just turn on belief. It's a decision to explore, begin a relationship, and some of you, maybe many of you, have seen faith in Jesus as transactional more than relational, believe certain things, maybe even say a certain prayer and you're in, and that misses the whole point. To intellectually assent to certain things about Jesus and then assume you're a Christian and you're going to heaven, while your experience of prayer becomes more like a rote religious routine than it is a personal, passionate conversation with the God you worship. Your experience of reading the Bible feels more like mechanical duty than relational delight Checking off boxes instead of reading and reflecting on the words of the one you love. The pursuit of holiness feels like a boar. That's keeping you from the pleasures of this world that you really want, instead of conformity to the image of Jesus being the supreme longing of your life, over and above everything in this world. That's biblical Christianity.
Speaker 1:Biblical Christianity revolves around a relationship with Jesus marked by growing intimacy and closeness and talking with Him through prayer and listening to Him through His Word and walking with Him as you become more and more like them. And this, jesus says, is how you recognize a true follower of mine. Look at the fruit of my life in their life flowing from them. Look at their fruit, jesus says. Do you see the fruit of my spirit? Do you see supernatural, otherworldly love and joy and peace and patience and kindness and goodness and faithfulness and gentleness and self-control flowing from them? Do you see good work that's shining like light flowing from their walk with God? And obviously it's not that any Christian will be perfect in every one of these ways, but when you're in relationship with Jesus truly, then you are continually wanting to follow him and bear the fruit of his life in your life. It's the overflow of love, relationship with him. You'll know Christians, jesus says, by their fruitfulness and their faithfulness.
Speaker 1:Did you hear verse 21? Not everyone who says to me, lord, lord, will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who's in heaven Now. As soon as we read that, you might think wait a minute. Does this mean that my entrance it's a language into the kingdom of heaven, into God's kingdom now and for eternity, is based on what I do, what he does, that I need to do enough good things in order to earn entrance into God's kingdom? And the answer to that question is a resounding no, and I want to show you this in the final part of Jesus' sermon. So let's read it together, starting in verse 24.
Speaker 1:Everyone, then, who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock and the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall because it had been founded on the rock. And everyone who hears these words of mine and does so follow what Jesus is saying here. We can wrongly assume personal salvation without right biblical foundation. So the last picture here that Jesus paints involves two builders who have so much in common Same materials build a house. Implication is their houses look just like each other and both face the same storm, but one of the houses stands and the other doesn't. So what's the difference? The difference is the foundation. Every builder in this room could tell you the foundation makes all the difference. So what's the proper foundation? And you see it in this one phrase everyone who hears these words of mine and does them that's the difference Hears these words and does them.
Speaker 1:These words of mine, a reference to everything Jesus has said in the sermon. And where did it all start? We looked at it at the beginning of this series. And where did it all start? We looked at it at the beginning of this series. We've gone back to it multiple times today. Blessed are the what Poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven Whole sermon. It's all a sermon series. Do you remember Mike's sermon that day?
Speaker 1:The starting point for life, for the good life, is poverty of spirit, which means total and desperate dependence on God. The way Mike put it was quote a deep awareness that you cannot produce what God requires of you and you cannot earn what God provides for you. Life starts with saying I need God to do what I cannot do, and this is the gospel of the kingdom. The good news of the kingdom is that God has done for you what you could not do. God has made a way for you to experience the good life, true life, now and forever, not based on your work for him, but based on his gracious work for you, especially if you're visiting with us or exploring Christianity, like my friend who I was meeting with earlier this week. Please hear this today it's the good news of the Bible and it's the greatest news in the world God has made each of us for personal relationship with him. You were made to find life in relationship with the God who made you, who knows what is best for you, who wants what is best for you, who loves you so much.
Speaker 1:The problem is we have all turned aside from God and his ways to ourselves in our own ways, thinking we know better than God. The Bible calls this sin, and our sin separates us from God, and the effects of that separation are all around us in a world of pain and strife and war and conflict and suffering and death. And if we die in this state of separation from God, we will experience eternal separation from him and judgment due our sin. And no matter follow this, how much good we do in this world, we can't get rid of the sin that's in our hearts. So, contrary to popular opinion, even among many professing Christians, heaven is not filled with people whose good outweighs their bad. Heaven is not filled with people whose good outweighs their bad. If you are trusting in your goodness to gain you access to the holy God, you are sunk from the start because you're a sinner. We are all sinners who deserve holy judgment from God. That's the bad news.
Speaker 1:But the good news is, god has not left us alone in this state.
Speaker 1:God has come to us in the person of Jesus. This is what we celebrate at Christmas. God with us. And why did he come? He came to live the life we couldn't live, a life of no sin. And then, even though he had no sin for which to die, he chose to die on a cross to pay the price for the sins of anyone who would trust in him. He died for our sins. And then the good news keeps getting better, because he didn't stay dead for long. Three days later, he rose from the grave in victory over sin and death, so that anyone, anywhere, no matter who you are, no matter what you have done, if you will turn from your sin and yourself, including all your efforts to overcome your sin with your own goodness, and you will trust in his love for you, in Jesus as the Savior and Lord of your life, god will forgive you of all your sin and restore you to relationship with him, now and forever in his kingdom. This is the greatest news in the world and it's the starting point of the Christian life.
Speaker 1:Hearing Jesus's words and doing them starts with acknowledging your need for God to save you from your sin and restore your relationship with him, not based on your work, but based on his work for you. And then so now follow this when you are restored to relationship with God through faith in Jesus, how do you live? You live out of the overflow of faith in Jesus, in relationship with God. It sounds so simple, but we miss it. We view it as a transaction Okay, I'm forgiven, I got my get out of hell free card. Now I know I'm good and I'll just live however I want in this world, spend my life, my time, my money, however I want in this world. No, we're walking with God. Now Our lives are totally different. We're living according to His Word, not the ways of this world. Our life is on a totally different foundation at this point, on the Word of God. And if we're in relationship with God, then what do we want? We want to hear His Word. I don't have to study the Bible. I want to know what God says about the way to life and I want to live according to it, because I know God and I'm worshiping God and walking with God. Now you've got the right biblical foundation for life Hearing and doing the words of Jesus, in relationship with him. And Jesus is saying here do not build your life on any other foundation.
Speaker 1:Many people, jesus is saying, are building their life on religious traditions, worldly ideas, even cultural trends, and when you walk through the storms in this life which are coming, none of those things will be able to hold you up. I think about two people in my life who are very close to me, who are suffering with terminal diseases. One's in the hospital right now, the other's about to receive hospice care. Both of them enduring storms of pain and suffering in their bodies, but both of them standing strong, you know how? Because they know God and they've built their lives on the rock of his word, which means they're getting diagnoses that any of us would dread, but they're filtering those diagnoses through the rock-solid promises of God to sustain them and strengthen them and satisfy them and give them security that, no matter what happens in the days to come, they are safe in the hands of the king who conquered death on their behalf, and they have no need to fear Religious traditions. Worldly ideas can't hold you up when brain cancer and leukemia are attacking your body.
Speaker 1:When I think about Abby in that video, amidst a storm that no 13-year-old girl wants to walk through. She's standing not because she's in touch with the latest cultural trends, but because she's banking her life, just like her mom taught her to, on the rock-solid Word of God. And the reality is, one day, the ultimate storm of God's holy judgment towards sin is coming for every single sinner in the world, including every single one of us. We will all die and stand before a holy god. If you have built your life on being a good person and doing all kinds of good things, then your life will not stand on that day. But if you have built your life on the love of God for you, on the Son of God who gave his life to pay the price for your sins, if you are in relationship with God through faith in Jesus, having trusted in him, living out of the overflow of relationship with him, you will find that foundation forever secure. This is life, this is the house, the life that will stand forever. Which then leads to this question in this room today is that your life?
Speaker 1:I wish I could just ask every single person individually. So importantly did I just describe you? I said at the beginning everyone will make a spiritual decision. I'll put it more specifically now everyone will either turn from Jesus as Lord or trust in Jesus as Lord. That's the decision that divides the world, including everybody in this room, into two groups, and the stakes could not be higher.
Speaker 1:Did you see the language? Over and over again. Broad is the road that leads to destruction. Many enter through it. Every tree that doesn't bear fruit is cut down. You see the language over and over again. Broad is the road that leads to destruction. Many enter through it. Every tree that doesn't bear fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. You build your life on the ways of this world. Your house, your life will fall with a great crash. Those are the words Jesus uses to end the Sermon on the Mount.
Speaker 1:This masterpiece of speech ends with a dire warning of judgment, because this decision determines the state of your life now and for the next 10 trillion years and beyond all of eternity. And we live in a world where the devil is deceiving people into thinking they're safe for eternity, when they're not Like the imagery is frightening. Here Nobody builds a house thinking that it's going to fall. Nobody knowingly does that. Jesus is saying it's possible to do that and to not have the sand under your life exposed until it's too late.
Speaker 1:So I want to give you a moment to reflect, just between you and God. And here's the question I want to ask you If you were to stand before God right now, would it be clear Jesus is the Lord of your life. You know him as the Lord of your life. You're in relationship with him as the Lord of your life. There's no more important question I could ask you, no more important question you could answer than this. Knowing not one of us is guaranteed tomorrow. We hope you've enjoyed this week's episode of Radical with David Platt. For more resources from David Platt, we invite you to visit radicalnet.
