Back on Track: What is the Way?
Ransford Buah
John 14:6
Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth and the life…
Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me
Luke 15:11-24
11 Jesus continued, “There was a man who had two sons. 12 The younger son said to his father, “Father, give me my share of the estate.”
11 Jesus continued, “There was a man who had two sons. 12 The younger son said to his father, “Father, give me my share of the estate.” So he divided his property between them.
13 “Not long after that, the younger son got together all he had, set off for a distant country and there he squandered his wealth in wild living. 14 After he had spent everything, there was a severe famine in that whole country, and he began to be in need.
15 So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country, who sent him to his field to feed pigs.
15 So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country, who sent him to his field to feed pigs.16 He longed to fill his stomach with the pods that the pigs were eating, but no one gave him anything.
17 When he came to his senses, he said, “How many of my father’s hired men have food to spare and here I am starving to death!
18 I will set out and go back to my father and say to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. 19 I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me like one of your hired servants. 20 So he got up and went to his father. “But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son , threw his arms around him and kissed him.
21 The son said to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.
22 But the father said to his servants, “Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet.
22 But the father said to his servants, “Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet. 23 Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let’s have a feast and celebrate.
24 For this son of mine was dead and is alive again: he was lost and is found. So they began to celebrate.
Luke 19:9a & 10
9a Jesus said, “Today salvation has come to this house…
10 For the Son of Man (Jesus) came to seek and save the lost.
Mathew 7:21-23
21 “Not everyone who says to me , “Lord, Lord,” will enter the kingdom of heaven , but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
22. Many will say to me on that day, “Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?”
23 Then I will tell them plainly “I never knew you. Away from me…
Proverbs 14:12
There is a way that seems right to a human, but in the end it leads to death.
