Aug.6.02: Light For The Day - "One Way"

-- John 14:6 (NIV)
"Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life.
No one comes to the Father except through me."

-----------------------
An old saying declares: "All roads lead to Rome."
Perhaps it was true in the ancient world -- but today,
you can get lost anywhere! The road you are on may lead in
exactly the opposite direction from your goal.

The only sure way to reach your destination is to consult
a good road or ask someone who knows the way.

Not all roads lead to God, as some suggest.
The reason? There is a roadblock that keep man from reaching God --
the roadblock of sin. But God has provided a map -- the Bible --
and He has provided us with One who knows the way and
can give us directions -- Jesus Christ.

Jesus did not say, "I am one of many roads to God."
What He said was, "I am the way." (Jn 14:6).
" That wasn't arrogance, or narrow-mindedness, or lack of compassion. It was truth -- because only Christ came from Heaven to pay the price for our sins. Follow Christ and never be lost!

-- Billy Graham

-------------------------
-- Acts 4:12 (NIV)
"Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name
under heaven given to men by which we must be saved."

-- 2 Timothy 3:16,17 (NIV)
16 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching,
rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness,
17 so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped
for every good work."
