ONE WAY
Read John 14
I read about a Christian minister who actually said that Christianity was NOT the only way to heaven. Well, I don’t know about you, but what do they do with this verse today? I mean, it’s pretty clear to me. Jesus said it. I didn’t.
The world, including some “ministers,” want to diminish the importance of Jesus. They say, “Surely a loving God would not send anyone to hell.” Jesus matters. He IS the only way. He is the ONE way. There is NO OTHER WAY! Don’t let anyone tell you anything different.
TEACHING MOMENT
Listen to me, moms and dads, your children are going to be bombarded with these “don’t believe Jesus” statements. They are going to hear from all sides how God either doesn’t matter or is unimportant. They are going to be told that Jesus is cool and all, but. . . .
Read them this verse. Better yet, have them memorize it for their defense. Jesus is the only way, the only truth, and the only life. Your children need to believe this. Nothing is more important than this.
Okay, so I seem to be on my soapbox. But I get a little passionate when I hear my Savior’s relevance questioned. I want everyone to know what a great and mighty Lord He is. I want others to experience the joy of knowing Him before it’s too late. I don’t want them to wait until the end. I want them to live with Him and for Him.
O Father of life, You are the only reason I live. You give me focus. You give me purpose. Give me the opportunity today to show someone this truth.
