Is Jesus the One Way to God?

Have you heard people who are good hearted and well intentioned say they believe there are many ways to heaven? 

Have you heard people who claim to be Christians say they don’t believe Jesus is the only way to God? Let’s think about that for a moment. These same people typically also say that Jesus was a good teacher. Yet, how “good” a teacher is Jesus if what He teaches is not the truth because Jesus taught He is the only way to heaven. “No one comes to the Father but through Me,” John 14:6.  

If there are, in fact, other ways to get to heaven besides Jesus, then He is not a good teacher. In fact, how can Christians be assured they have access to God through Jesus if He either intentionally lied about being the only way or was mistaken? Is our faith in Jesus misplaced? 

We can’t have it both ways. Jesus is either the One Mediator between God and men, as 1 Timothy 2:5 states or He is not. “For there is one God, and one mediator also between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.” 

We have to make a decision. Although we might want to say there are many ways to heaven to appease others, that’s not what the Bible says or Jesus teaches. There is one God, and one mediator between God and us, Jesus. If you don’t yet know Him, get to know Him. Submit your life and eternity to Him. He is trustworthy and proven. 

Lord Jesus Christ, You are the ONE GOD and mediator in whom I trust. I praise You for making peace between God and me.
