KISS is an acronym for "Keep It Simple Stupid."
Why is it easier to obfuscate?
I guess a big part of the problem is that we want to seem fancy—I'm reminded of a Spongebob episode where he and Patrick are trying to impress Sandy the Squirrel; at one point as Patrick is teaching Spongebob about being fancy, he screams: "Remember! Pinky out!"
The Lord kept things simple (John 14:15; 15:14). Too often we want to make salvation a lot tougher than it is.
For we ourselves were once foolish, disobedient, led astray, slaves to various passions and pleasures, passing our days in malice and envy, hated by others and hating one another. But when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit, whom he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that being justified by his grace we might become heirs according to the hope of eternal life (Titus 3:3-7).
