Who Is Jesus? 7 Days in the 'I Am' Statementsනියැදිය

Read John 14:6: Jesus answered, ‘I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.’

Jesus is talking to Thomas on the night before he dies, and Thomas is confused about what Jesus is doing. Jesus is totally clear: Thomas needs to trust Him to get to God.

Now notice: Jesus doesn’t say I am a way, a truth, a life. He says He is the way and the truth and the life. So if you’ve heard people say, 'there are many ways to God, like paths up a mountain', that’s exactly not what Jesus says! Unlike other religions or philosophies, Christianity is not about a list of things to do or a set of practices to follow. It’s about a person, Jesus, and about what He has done for us, not what we do for Him.

Now, these words were just as offensive then as they are today. It’s either one of the most arrogant things someone has ever said, or it’s true, and it changes everything.
