Key Text: John 14:6 KJV - Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
There is only one destination that a man may go to after his life on earth expires: heaven or hell. While addressing the disciples before his death, Jesus said that they knew where he was going and the way that leads there. Jesus is not one of the ways but the only way to the Father. Since heaven is commonly believed to be the dwelling place of God, then it means that one must be a follower of Jesus to enter heaven.
Many religions teach that there is one God who can be reached through diverse ways. But Christianity teaches the claim of Jesus, that he is the only way to God. It is worthy of note, that no founder of religion has ever made such an audacious declaration, beside Jesus Christ. You may be a very good man but if you are not a true follower of Jesus, you will end up in hell when your life on earth expires. Jesus came to the world to open blind eyes to this eternal truth.
You are either a follower of Jesus Christ or Satan. But remember that you are heading for destruction in hell if you are not following the right way. Jesus is the only way to heaven where God dwells. While you are still alive, you can return to the way of Jesus before it becomes too late. As many that receive him, he gives the power to become the children of God. He is willing to receive and save you, if you will come to him today.
Prayer: O Lord, help me to follow Jesus Christ: the only way to God, till the end of my life, in Jesus name. Amen.
Reflection: There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death - Proverbs 14:12.
