SEEK DAILY (NBC) DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR MAY 17, 2022 (THE ONLY WAY)
TOPIC: THE ONLY WAY
TEXT: JOHN 14:1-7
“Jesus answered, ‘I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.’” John 14:6, NIV
MESSAGE
Someone asked, “Why does a loving God send people to hell?” A man answered, “God doesn’t send anyone to hell, but people choose to go to hell when they reject Jesus – the only way to paradise!”
The event in today’s passage took place in the evening before the Cross, maybe close to midnight. Every moment here is packed with doctrine. Jesus is pouring out things that are going to be needed by the disciples in the days to come. This is a part of the journey He had decided to take in order to make way for man to get to the kingdom of God.
Perfect full fellowship and everlasting life are made possible through only Jesus Christ. No one can have spiritual life unless they have it through Christ Jesus. This means that no one has a relationship with the ultimate source of all life in the Father unless it is through the Son. This says dogmatically that no religion is correct.
The only way to God is through historical biblical Christianity (through the path of Christ).
Let everyone who cares to know be informed that, Jesus is not one way among many, but the only way to God (John 14:6). Therefore make your request known to God through Jesus Christ.
Insight: The embodiment of God is Jesus Himself.
Prayer:
Lord, let people receive the great love of God through Jesus Christ.
