(John 14:6) "I
am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except
through me."
Jesus tells us here that there is only one path that
leads to God. All paths do not lead to God and heaven. Only one path does. And
that path is Jesus.
All that we need is Jesus.
What does Jesus have in mind when he says he is the only
Way? The Way is not a following of traditions or the learning of teachings about
Jesus. This is not what Jesus said. The Way is Jesus himself.
The Way is a Person. The Way is to follow Jesus day by
day. To follow the Way, you need to love the Lord Jesus with all your heart,
soul, mind, and strength. The Way is to live for Jesus in everything we do. The
Way is to obey the Great Commission: To go and share the Good News of Jesus
Christ, the only Way, with the rest of the world.
Jesus is the Way to the Father. He is the Way to the
Father's house where he is preparing a room for us (John 14:2).
Because of his death and resurrection, Jesus is the Way
of Salvation.
Through loving him, living for him and obeying him, we
journey on the Way of salvation until we come home to his Father’s house.
Jesus is the Way, because he died for our sins and rose again
to grant us everlasting life.
