Jesus is the only way to heaven. This is the only truth that
we preach. You see many have a big problem coming to terms with truth. Facts
change but truth does not and there is no room for error with truth.
Looking back to genesis we see man because of disobedience losing
fellowship with God when the woman was tempted. Then God chased man from his
presence in the garden. God then closed the way to the tree of life. Then at
the appointed time God sent his only begotten son to restore that fellowship.
So in essence God was only accessed through prophets and
priests and his spirit was only coming upon a prophet to pass his message to
his children. Only a few people enjoyed the privilege of Gods spirit as
evidenced by King David in psalms 51 where he begs God not to take away his
spirit from him.
Even Moses had the privilege of having access to Gods will
for his children as it is written you made your ways known to Moses and your acts
to the children of Israel. Moses recorded more about Gods ways his thought process,
his plan. With Abraham, Isaac and Jacob he did not reveal himself fully. Then
the children of Israel received the laws and promised rather challenged God that
they were going to fulfill everything that God was going to tell them to do.
Yet along the way it turned out they were an obstinate
nation they begun to love the law better than God and they perverted Gods law
to suit themselves. Thanks be to God for he came in the fresh in his son who
was 100% God and 100% man for the fullness of God head is in Christ. Jesus
disciples asked Jesus show us the Father the he answered he who has seen me has
seen the father. God is spirit and all his fullness he made it to dwell in Jesus
in other words he did exactly what he wanted us to do as a man how to apply his
laws. At one point he told the Pharisees go back and read what it means I desire
mercy not sacrifice Hosea 6:6.
Ironically the arc of the covenant had the mercy seat on top
of the tablets of the law. From the beginning God has always wanted mercy,
love, justice and fellowship with man. Jesus was revealed at the due time to
restore what was lost in the garden.
Jesus died on the cross for our sins He become our
substitute the punishment that was meant for us fell on him who knew no sin. He
gave us full rights of the children of God. He opened the way to God the
curtain was torn making a way for us all who believe in Jesus to have
fellowship with our father. He opened a way for us to approach God with
boldness. And he brought us life that was lost in the garden.
Indeed Jesus is the truth the way ad the life, the only way
to God is through God. Unfortunately there is no other way but through Jesus.
That is the truth that Jesus is the way and also the life. Not a direction to
point you to the way but the way itself. Because when we invite him into our
lives, he enters our dead bodies, and gives us life through his spirit. He now
takes over and gives us direction changing our desires.
It is written we are Gods workmanship created unto good
works which he ordained before the foundation of the earth. His love enters us
through his spirit then makes us love our neighbor and love God with a pure
heart.
Now God himself is in us through the spirit of his son. He
is in us to teach us how to get the best from God. His son Jesus begins to
reveal the father and then increase our knowledge of God the father. It is written
this is eternal life that they may know you the only true God, and Jesus whom
you sent John 17:3.
Jesus is the word of God and the word of God became fresh through
Jesus. The word of God is truth. The way to GOD is through Jesus who is the word
of God that is the truth that leads us to eternal life. Make a choice today to
make Jesus the Lord and savior of your life so you two can have eternal life.
Brothers and sisters there is no other way.
