One Way To God?

Sunday we wrapped up our "So You're Dead...Now What?" series. The title was just "Q&A". It was questions and answers to things pertaining to the afterlife...heaven and hell. It was very interesting and I think some people's views on heaven and hell were shaken up in a good way.

The last question Craig answered was "Is there different ways to heaven?". Basically, are there mulitple ways to God/heaven? The answer was emphatically, "NO!". There is only one way to God. There is only one way to heaven. It's through our savior Jesus that a way to the Father has been made. Here is what Jesus said:

Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." - John 14:6

So if we call ourselves followers of Christ then we have to believe this. We cannot sway from this truth or it waters down who Jesus is. If we believe God's Word as His people, we have to believe that Jesus is the only way. There is no other way.

In mainstream media and in the world this view is not a popualr becuase Satan wants to trick you to believe that people that beleive something else or are "good people" will go to heaven too. It's justy not true.

I challenge you to read God's Word and see where He continually repeats that there is ONE WAY to Him...and that is through Jesus Christ.

So is there just one way to God? Yes. His name is Jesus.

Have a great week.
