Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life.No one comes to the Father except through Me." John 14:6
The Lord Jesus Christ's statement is unequivocal, undeniable, clear and specific. Jesus states that He is the ONLY way to the Father.
Why did Jesus say this? Jesus is answering Thomas’ question. Thomas said to him, "Lord, we don't know where you are going, so how can we know the way?" John 14:5 Jesus declares that He is the only way to God because He is the truth of God and the life of God. Jesus emphatically states the exclusiveness of approaching the holy Lord God Almighty. Jesus Christ is the only way to God.
Who is “the Father” that Jesus speaks of? The Father of Jesus is Lord God Almighty. God is Jesus’ Father. Jesus' Father is the Father to everyone who believes, adheres to, and trusts the LJC as their personal Savior and Lord. God says that if anyone " " " " then He adopts them as their children. << Edit with VS and HY
Isn’t God everyone’s Father? – Obviously not if Jesus says He is the Only way to the Father. Isn’t that a bit narrow?
Lord God Almighty (God the Father character) is through Himself, the Lord Jesus Christ.
Link to character of the Father, what a father is like, and verses of Who. Is God the Father of every person ever created? (who creates, who made you, my religion your religion, links.) No, else Jesus Christ would not be necessary. Jesus would then be lying by stating that He, the Lord Jesus Christ is the ONLY way to the Father. Then who is the father of everyone if they don’t have God as their father? Vs, the devil. World violence, big picture, Jesus explains Who He IS in three ways. Jesus says: I am the Way and the Truth and the Life.
