Jesus Is The Way
/Jesus declared, “Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but through Me.” (Jn. 14:6)
He is the way out. He in the way out of sin that deceives us and so easily entangles us (Heb. 12:1). Sin can be either blatant and subtleHe is the only one that sets of free from he slavery of sin. (Jn. 8:32)
He is the way through. When illness, oppression, depression, disappointments, failures and other things beset us, he alone always cares and always helps. Whether it is evil, wrong or indifference that besets us, He always calls, “Come unto me, my yoke is easy, my burden is light, you will find rest for your souls.” (Matt. 11:28-30)
He is the way in. We all seek some sort of satisfaction in life. Some find it by helping others, some by popularity or success. Worldly satisfactions and thing that depend on circumstances or other people pale in comparison to the deep and permanent blessedness that Jesus gives.“I came that they might have life, and might have it abundantly.” (Jn. 10:10)
He is the way up. The upward call in Jesus lifts us from sin and selfishness so that we can live a life of love, service and worship. No one can lift you to a level far above where they themselves are. Jesus can bring us to where He Himself is.
He is the way to heaven. He promised his disciples a place in heaven that He was preparing for them. “In My Father’s house are many dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you.And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also.” (Jn. 14:2,3)
