That’s the reason Jesus Christ came, to fix all that was broken between man and God.....He came to be the one who would restore our fellowship with God. He came to be the TRUTH about God in His very Being. And He came to give us LIFE, not just in heaven by and by, but in life in the here and now. Life that’s better than anything you will find anywhere.
Jesus came to remove that sin barrier between you and me and God. He came to re-establish THE WAY between us and God. Now we believe that Jesus is the teacher of THE WAY. We accept the fact that He is the guide along the way. But that’s not what He is saying here....but that’s not what He is saying here.,..He is saying He is THE way. He is saying I am the way to restore communion with God.
In the early church, they didn’t call the followers of Jesus Christians, they called them “people of THE WAY.” Because they had a unique message - they had THE WAY to God through their Savior Jesus.
Jesus is also the TRUTH recovered.
John 1:14...And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and TRUTH....
Almighty God poured Himself into a human body...He was the TRUTH about God in a body,.,.,Someone came to Jesus and said, “Shoe us the Father.” Jesus said, “If you have seen ME you have seen THE FATHER.”
So Jesus Christ is not only the WAY to God, He alone is the TRUTH about God.
Truth is very exclusive. If it isn’t, it can’t be true...
If I say 2 multiplied by 2 = 4, that is a very dogmatic, intolerant statement.
Truth cannot accept error.
Jesus is the TRUTH. Anything that is not Jesus cannot be the TRUTH. He is exclusively THE TRUTH (about God).....
.......Those on the side of TRUTH come to Jesus....despite what difficulties it may mean for you (possible loss of friends, family, job if you choose to follow Jesus)....but if you want to be where the truth is, be with Jesus, He is the truth.
