The Only Way

John 14:5-7; Acts 4:11-12

​In response to Thomas’s question, Jesus declared that He is the way to God because He is the truth of God and the life of God. This is one of the most basic and important passages in Scripture. It gives a clear indication that Jesus is both God and man, and by uniting our lives with His, we are united with God. Jesus says He is the ONLY way to God the Father. Some people may argue that this way is too narrow. Instead of arguing about there not being many ways to God, maybe we should just be thankful for the ONE way He did provide. Amen! The way to God the Father is inclusive in the sense that it is available to all, but it is very exclusive in that it is only achieved through faith in Jesus Christ. Down with many ways; up with Christ!

Questions for further thought:
1. How can we know the way to God? 
2. In what ways am I trusting Christ alone as the only provision to be made right with God the Father?

Challenge: Trust Jesus to take you to the Father, and all the benefits of being God’s child will be yours.
