1 | How to explain Jesus' exclusive claim? | John 14:6 | Parable | 44452 | ||
In John 14:6b, Jesus says "No one comes to the Father except through me." Many reject Christ, or have real trouble accepting Him because of His unique, exclusive claim. When witnessing to unbelievers, how do you explain to them why you accept His claim? And, in practical terms, what difference does it make to your walk with him? I'm not looking so much for bible verses that support the truth of His statement, but rather how you explain to unbelievers why this makes sense, knowing that they do not yet recognize the authority of scripture. |

Hello Parable, Think about it my brother, did you come to your salvation through a bunch of verses? Or let me ask, how did you come to the Father? I was sitting in a jail cell when someone was telling me about the Love of God. No bible, no sermon, he was relating to me how God Loved me and that He was not mad at me, and the only way to come to Him was through His Son! It was that "Love" that I wanted, I said the sinner's prayer, and the rest is history. We are ALL looking for an answer for our life. (It's Jesus). I have come to believe (by experience) that people will approach you, because we are what is written in 2 Corinthians 3:2. You demonstrate God's Love in your walk. And that is powerful. So if we are in a market, on the job, on a campus or wherever we are ready to give an answer. "But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect" 1 Peter 3:15 NIV. As for me "walk the walk, and talk the talk". That's all I have. God bless You! |

Most definitely! In answer to your question, my journey to faith in Christ came like this: Looking for love in all the wrong places. Self-destructive behavior. Isolation. Using others. Spiritual emptiness, dispair. Increasing Awe at God's glory as revealed in His Creation. No way could it all be by chance. Invitation by a Christian to get right with God. Christian education, including reading "More than a Carpenter" by Josh McDowell. Acceptance of the evidence and conclusion that Christ's resurrection is real, historical fact. Understanding what His Resurrection says about who He is. Conviction by the Holy Spirit that fundamentally, I am depraved, helpless and deserve death, and yet, God already did that in my place. Letting go of my sin, turning to God. Accepting God's forgiveness, endeavoring to "go and sin no more" and obey His commands to "love God" and "love others". AMEN! |

Praise God, This verse that you are refering to John 14:6, Jesus is talking to who? Right! Jesus is giving Thomas his answer, "the way to where He is going". To the world at large, "For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God". For it is written: "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate." 1 Corinthians 1:18 NIV. I believe in witnessing, but also to be a witness! Good talking to you, May God richly bless you today! |
