Jesus Our Savior

Have you ever wondered.......

. Why Jesus Came to Earth?

. If there are any other ways to get to heaven?

Read: John 10:10; John 15:6; Acts 4:12 & 1 Timothy 1:15

Many people search for faith like they shop for clothes. They browse the racks of religion, pick an item, and try it on for size. If it doesn't fit, they throw it right back on the rack. If it's comfortable and makes them look good, then they buy it. Besides, it can always be returned.

Some people claim that Christianity is too narrow. Jesus clearly said that there's only one way to heaven and one narrow path that leads to God - and He is the way. He's not the least bit tolerant or accepting of other methods, sincere as they might be.

Why is that so hard to accept? In every other area of life, we accept absolutes. When we bake, we put in the exact ingredients. When we drive somewhere, we follow the directions. When we seek God, he requires only one thing - CHRIST - and tha's the only way to God.

We are not saved by a system of religion. Salvation is beautifully, incredibly simple. Jesus is the one Savior, and He's free for the taking.

The woman said to Hime, "I know that Messiah is coming" (who is called Christ). "When He comes, He will tell us all things." Jesus said to her, "I who speak to you am He". John 4:25-26
