KEY SCRIPTURE: John 14:4 KJV” And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.”

The Lord after speaking of His mission to heaven and back, said His disciples know the place where He was going, as well as the way to this place. These men have lived all their lifetime on the earth, yet the Lord said they know the place. What did He mean. Jesus’ life in totality was a manifestation of the kingdom of heaven on earth. He demonstrated to them the life in the heavenly kingdom. Jesus led a life that was in charge of all situations, with no problem that could not be put right. He consistently led his life to please the Father. He brought the heavenly atmosphere to them. In a way, these men had had a foretaste of life in heaven through their encounter with the Lord Jesus.  Jesus was right when He said you know the place.

He also said, you know the way to this place. What was the way to heaven? Jesus Himself is the way John 14:6. The way is not a set of practices. It is also not a kind of doctrine that one needs to go there. The way was a comprehensive package. It involved

1. The way is a person who becomes access to the place, this person must be divine. Jesus revealed by His life, and words that He is God. John 17:5, Phil 2:5,6.

2. The way to heaven or the Father must give life. The condition of men is not a lack of doctrines, but man is spiritually dead and needs life. Jesus is the one who gave us that life.1Jn 5:11 KJV” And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son”.

3. The third package of the way is that, it must be the truth and everyone must be certain about what He says and does. The Lord Jesus proved that He is reliable in all things. He proved that by resurrecting from the dead. He proved that when He ascended to heaven in the full glare of about one hundred and twenty people. JESUS is that truth.

Some have argued that there are a number of ways to get to the Father, yet none of these ways that   these people claim, provide even one of these requirements that gives access to heaven or the Father

Jesus is not a myth, but a real person who demonstrated fully that He is able to save heal and resurrect all who trust Him. Dear one, Jesus is the way and the sure way.

THOUGHT: JESUS IS THE ONLY WAY
