ONE WAY by Melanie Schurr

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

A man was driving in a town he was not familiar with. When he turned left down a narrow street, a young woman walking along the sidewalk waved her arms and pointed to a sign which read "one way." Disregarding the woman's caution, the driver proceeded on, only to find himself being shouted at by another passer by. "There is only one way down this street!" an elderly man bellowed. "You are going the wrong way!"

The driver continued on as he ignored the warnings.

From a spiritual perspective, many of us do exactly the same thing.

In the Bible we are clearly told that there is only one way, and that way to our salvation is through Christ Jesus. "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me." John 14:6 Sadly, despite this truth, many people turn away, refuse to hear, and prefer to believe that there are many doors and numerous ways. Such people may claim to believe in a "higher power," yet when they explain what this force is, it has nothing to do with God and His son, Jesus Christ.

"For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16

My dear friends, your heavenly Father, God, loves you very much, and wants to have a relationship with you. There is but one door, and it is up to you to go through it.
