JESUS IS THE WAY OF RECONCILIATION



 “I am the way…no one comes to the Father except through Me.”  (John 14:6)

There is a great gulf fixed between sinful humanity and sinless Deity.  Jesus is the Bridge across that chasm.  We are estranged from God because of our sin—our rebellion against Him. We need to be reconciled to God—and there is a way.

Jesus has opened up the way to God, but we must choose that way.  He has come to us as the Way, but we must come to the Father through Him.

He is the only way, “No one comes to the Father except through Me.”  The Bible pictures us as sheep gone astray who cannot find our way.  We may think we are on the right path and yet the Bible warns, “There is a way that seems right unto a man, but its end is the way of death.”  Jesus said there was a broad way that leads to destruction—sadly, most are on that way—maybe you are.

But, there is another way—a narrow way.  Jesus says, “I am the way.”  Through Him alone, we can be reconciled to God.  I pray the Holy Spirit will confirm in your heart that you are truly following Christ, or show you the way of salvation in Christ if you are on the wrong way.
