One Way

There is only one way to be reconnected with God. This means that there is only one true religion/faith/doctrine/etc... Jesus told us in the Bible that He is the one way to God.

"I am the way, the truth and the life.
No one comes to the Father except through Me."

(John 14:6)

Why is it not possible to have more than one way to get to God?

Using this in a different context such as, "Questions and Answer"

There is always one answer to a question. Math problems always have one answer. The method to solve the probelm doesn't matter. The answer is always the same. For exam ple, when you have to find the value of two variables.

Ex: (y - 2x = 5 and 2y + x= -5)

We could use substitution or exclusion. Either way we will find that the answer is x = -1, y = 3.

The example of math questions is the answer the question above "Why is it not possible to have more than one way to get to God?". There is only one way, one answer, to reconnect with God.

We could relate this with the context of truth. When you ask someone for truth, there is only one answer or truth. There cannot be more than one answer for the truth. For example, if your mom asks you if you ate the last cookie from the cookie jar, in this case you did. The one truth would be that you ate the cookie. However, there are many lies that you could make up to deceive your mother about the truth, such as, the dog ate it, your sister ate it, father ate it, it fell on the ground so it was dumped in the garbage, etc... Jesus tells us that He is the truth. If He is the truth, then everything else is false. There are so many things in the world that tell us that they are the "truth". However they are fake and can never satisfy the dryness that you have. We can always buy the latest video games or computers or fashionable clothes. We feel that we are satisfied by these items for a while. Later on, newer models or fashions will come and we find what we had in possession before will not satisfy ourselves later. I remember when fashionable jeans were in the style of bell bottoms. Everyone in seventh grade was rocking their Elvis styled pants. Later on, the jean style changed into skinny. What we were satisfied with, bell bottoms, didn't seem to be as beautiful as it was before. Why? Because it wasn't accepted in the world anymore. In the end, everyone wasn't satisfied with what they had. These items we think are the "truth" are lies. Lies always change. The truth never changes. Jesus never changes. He will never stop loving you.

Jesus is Life. He has given us life. For evidence, turn to the gospel. We sinned ever since Adam and Eve disobeyed God.

"For the wages of sin is death,"

(Romans 6:23)

Jesus came to earth and lived as a sinless man and He went and died on the cross for our sins. He took all our sins and paid the price we had to pay. Then He rose again. He conquered death. He conquered death so that we could conquer death too. If we conquer death, we have Life. The one who has provided us with this Life is Jesus Christ.

We can only recieve this life if we accept and believe in the truth and the way. If we believe and accept Him, Jesus Christ, can we be reunited with God once again.
