How Well Do You Know Him
Do you ever have difficulty trying to find God?
Do you know the way that leads to his door?
In our relativistic culture the answer is all ways or all religions lead to God. But Jesus made an audacious claim that stands in opposition to that when we said "I am the way, and the truth, an the life on one come to the father except through me:
John 14:6
Clearly Jesus is saying there are not multiple ways to God, there is only one way to God and that is me. I am the way, interesting how this way is so personal. It's not some path to follow, some command or some teaching to live up to; instead the way to Fod is found in Jesus. Jesus is the way because Jesus is God -- I am in the father and the father is in me.
John 14:10
So what does it mean for you to follow Jesus as the way God?
What does it mean for you to seek him as the truth?
