Bible Question:
Are there any ways to salvation other than a personal relationship with Jesus Christ? This question keeps coming up in every church that I have attended. What about babies who die young, aborted babies, aborigines, remote pygmies in Africa, Godly Jewish folks, good Muslims, and so on and so on add infinitum? Help me with this. How do I answer grieving parents and Christ seekers? |
Bible Answer: newoldstock Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." Since Jesus didn't include any exceptions in this statement it is natural to assume there are none, however we will have to wait until heaven to see if He made an exception. We can speculate, guess and offer opinion but that is all it is, and that serves no purpose. Clearly we know what is expected of us so it is imperative that we insure we are in right relationship with Christ Jesus. We have no excuse! EdB |
