A vast multitude of people around the globe are led
astray by cult leaders and blind guides, who claim to possess extraordinary
spiritual knowledge and powers. Such claims have repeatedly proven false, yet
there is no dearth of followers. Strange as it may seem, the list of followers
is not confined to the illiterate masses, but includes ministers, top ranking
officers and high profile personalities!
The fact remains that God
does not desire any soul to go astray and perish, but that every soul should
experience ‘eternal life’. So God sent His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ into this
world to show man the way to God, the Father. He said, “I am the way, the
truth, and the life: no man comes unto the Father, but by Me”.
Christ is the ‘only way’ to
reach the Father, for there is no other name under heaven given among men,
whereby you must be saved. There is no other way to attain salvation, but by
the Lord Jesus Christ only, for He, as the high priest, by His own blood entered
in once into the holy place, and obtained eternal redemption for us. The Lord
Jesus Christ is ‘the Truth’ being the substance and fulfillment of the types
and figures of the Old Testament. He is the ‘only Truth’ as opposed to ‘the
falsehood’ we see around.
The Lord Jesus Christ is
also ‘the life’. He is the only source and fountain of all life. He is the
redeemer of souls from eternal death and giver of everlasting life. However
depraved, poor, week and miserable you may feel now, yet by trusting in Him, you
can experience the joy of a ‘new life’ now and a ‘glorious life’ in everlasting
mansions above, after you leave this world.
The Lord
Jesus Christ is not merely one of the ways to salvation, but he is the ‘only
way’ for there is no other way. None can imagine reaching heaven except through
the Lord Jesus Christ, who died a vicarious death on the cross, for you and for
me. He was buried, but rose again on the third day. He ascended to heaven and
is seated on the right hand of God, the Father. Jesus will come again soon to
take his people unto Himself. If you trust in this risen and living Savior, you
shall receive eternal life. Dear reader, are you saved? Do you have the
assurance of salvation? If not, confess your sins to Him and receive Jesus, the
Christ of God as your Lord and Saviour right now.
