Way

John 14:2-6 – My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going.” Thomas said to him, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?” Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

John 6:35 – Then Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.

John 10:9 – I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. They will come in and go out, and find pasture.

John 1:4 – In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind.

Acts 9:1-2 – Meanwhile, Saul was still breathing out murderous threats against the Lord’s disciples. He went to the high priest and asked him for letters to the synagogues in Damascus, so that if he found any there who belonged to the Way, whether men or women, he might take them as prisoners to Jerusalem.

Application:

  • ·         Jesus is the way to God. Jesus is not one way among many but the only way.
  • ·         In the early church, Christianity was sometimes called “the Way”.
  • ·         “The gate” is the one way into salvation.
  • ·         Life is Christ’s gift, and He, in fact, is “the life”.
  • ·         Jesus called Himself “the way”.
