Jesus, The Only Way: Acts 4.12; John 14.6
Jul 22nd, 2009 | By John | Category: Banner GazetteJesus, The Only Way: Acts 4.12; John 14.6
And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. Acts 4.12, ESV (25)
Peter and John were on trial before the Supreme Court of the Jews, the Sanhedrin, concerning the healing of a lame man. In verse 7 they were asked, “By what power or by what name did you do this?” Peter boldly (cf. v13) proclaimed their source of authority or power was “Jesus Christ of Nazareth.” He then asserted that salvation was only found in this Jesus whom they had rejected and that there was no other name by which people could be saved—not in the name of Moses, the Pharisees or the Sadducees, but in Jesus alone.
Today, people need to understand that we cannot be saved in the name of Muhammad, Joseph Smith or any other founder of man-made religions. Salvation is still found only in Jesus. The Bible teaches that the only way to get into Jesus is for a penitent believer to be baptized into Jesus (Rom. 6.3–7; 1 Cor. 12.13; Gal. 3.26–27). Are you saved in Christ? Have you been baptized into Christ?
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” John 14.6, ESV (26)
Jesus had told his disciples he was going away but that they knew the way were he was going and that they would eventually be able to go and be with him. Not being certain as to what he meant, Thomas asked, “Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?” (v5). Jesus replied by making it clear that he was the way, the truth and the life. He was not and is not just a way of several different ways, but the only way to be with the Father for all eternity.
Just as with the previous passage, people today need to understand that the only way to be prepared for life hereafter is to follow Jesus, the Way. Following after any so-called “latter-day revelation” or following any other way will lead straight to eternal hell fire (cf. Matt. 7.13–14, 21–28; 25.31–46).
Are you following Jesus and Jesus alone? JRG
