Only One Way

[Jn 14:5-6]

Are you searching, while the answer sits on your coffee table?

There is only one way to the Father.

Jn 14:5-6 (NASB) – [5] Thomas said to Him, “Lord, we do not know where You are going; how do we know the way?” [6] Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father except through Me.

Thomas knew Jesus. He just didn’t realize Jesus was ‘the way.’ Likewise, people today know portions of God’s Word but they don’t realize that God’s Word is their way to victory.

Often, people cry out for God to speak to them while their Bible lays on their coffee table gathering dust. God has spoken to us through His Word. We just need to believe it and receive its truths as our way to victory.

Jesus didn’t say: ‘I am a way, a truth, and a life.’ He claimed to be the only way, truth, and life. No man can come to the Father except through Jesus.

This means that anyone who claims to honor Jesus while thinking there are other ways to get to God, truth, or life, besides Jesus, is deceived or a deceiver.

Jesus’ claims about Himself, and He’s the only one, leaving no room for other means to salvation. He is either who He says He is, or not. He is not a liar. His own statements about Himself leave no other alternatives.

Therefore, other religions that recognize Jesus and His teachings as wonderful examples, but don’t believe He is the only way to achieve salvation, are false religions.

The Word of God is a spiritual book written under the direction of Holy Spirit. It was not written to our head but to the innermost part of our heart.

This is why some people find the Bible so hard to understand. They are trying to comprehend it using only their mind.

If you have been taught about Jesus, and that He was just a prophet, or some great teacher, and you think because you are good you are going to heaven when you die, you have been deceived.

If you think you are special and have your own right standing with God, that is not good!

Don’t believe the lie that says everyone has their own method to salvation. Don’t think that He sees your heart and knows that you are basically good.

No one is basically good, all have sinned, and need THE WAY to the Father!

The Word of God has to inspire our heart before it can enlighten our mind.

Prayer:

Father, open the eyes of those who hear this message, to see into the spiritual realm. So that they can understand your word more clearly.

Lord, we know that time is running out! Help everyone who hears the Gospel, to share it with everyone they know.

I glorify and honor God in my thoughts, words, and actions today, in Jesus’ Name amen!

Remember: Whatever stands between you and your Bible is your enemy!

God bless you my friend,
