Except Through Christ

Jesus explained why He had to be sacrificed on the cross during Last Supper. He had to pay the price for our sins in order for humanity to be reconciled back to God. He was asked how was one able to get to heaven. Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” - John 14:6  

Quite the claim in a world that 70% of the population does not believe in Christ. It's not the only time this claim was made. Jesus shared how difficult it was, and there is only one way.        

 

“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. ¹⁴But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.” – Matthew 7:13-14

 

A bold and potentially offensive assertion. But a question that everyone human being asks in their minds and heart. The Bible makes the answer clear - Jesus does provide a way to heaven.

¹²Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved." – Acts 4:12 

Be wise today and always - praise God for His love and sacrifice.
