The Only Way to God

John 14:6 - Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

All religions acknowledge God and all of them somewhat know, some of the characteristics of God; like His Holiness. Christianity has the clearest description of God than any other religion, for Christianity is not a religion but a relationship with God. We all want to come closer to God the Father, who is the creator and Almighty Being and through whom all life flows.

In the Bible it has been shown how trouble started between the God and man because of sin. Man use to be in the presence of God when he was created as Adam and Eve. But when sin entered him, God departed from his presence and man was cursed by God and thrown out of the spiritual world (Heavens) on to the physical world, with the only option of return when he is free of sin and curse. From generation to generation man could not produce even one true righteous person, therefore God had to come as man - Jesus to set an example, break the curses, make peace between God and man and show the way to overcome man's sinful nature. Jesus became the one and only unifying means between God and man. There are ways to God other than Jesus, but all of them fail and fall short of bringing man back into the presence of God.

So let us hold on to the only hope that is Jesus, by whom we will be able to go back into the presence of our Almighty Father.


[ Prayer Starter ]
Lord Jesus, I thank You for coming to our rescue, for becoming a sacrifice of peace between God the Father and me, for healing and showing me how to overcome my sinful nature by your grace. Help me Christ Jesus to set my eyes on You always, to understand your ways and follow it. I make this prayer in your mighty Name, Amen.

The Word of God was given free to us, therefore we should also share it freely with others. (All rights are with God)
