“I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
–John 14:6
Jesus is not the best way to heaven… he’s the only way to heaven.
Now, I know this is a very exclusive statement to make in the day of tolerance and inclusion. But there is an exclusive nature to the Gospel even though many call this a narrow perspective.
The Scripture is clear on this matter. Christianity exists only because of the deity and sacrifice of Christ. Without Christ, there is no Christianity! That’s what the Scripture says and what you and I think will never change that fact.
You see, I can’t choose what I believe is right and you choose what you believe is right and we all somehow magically end up in heaven. But that’s the mentality of the world, isn’t it? And it’s dead wrong.
If you believe Christ who said, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me”, then it follows that you would also believe in the exclusivity of the Gospel.
But listen, while Christianity is exclusive, Jesus died for all!
John 3:16 says, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” Jesus died for you… and he died for all.
CHRISTIANITY IS CHRIST AND CHRIST ALONE!
