There’s no religion, no religious leader, no methods, or medium under heaven for man’s salvation, except by the Name of Jesus. As clear as this is in the Scriptures, there’re some who contend with it, stating that there’re many ways to God.

 

But this is the Word of God! There’s no other name under heaven, given to men for salvation, except the Name of Jesus. In John 14:6, Jesus said unequivocally, “…I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”

 

There may be many that are called gods, but there’s only one God, and one mediator between God and men—the man, Christ Jesus (1 Timothy 2:5). He’s the only One who reconciles men to God; the only One who bridges the gap, and makes friendship and peace between God and man. This should be your conviction, and enough motivation to preach the Gospel.

 

Romans 5:1-2 says, “Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.” Man had no hope until Jesus came.

 

Man had been separated from God, and from His glory; there was no way for him to be reconciled. That’s the reason for all the religions of the world; they’re seeking a way to come back to God. But Christ is the answer. He made it possible for us to receive the God-life, ushering us into God’s presence.

 

As a Christian, you must be absolutely convinced that there’s no salvation in any other but Jesus. Be convinced that He’s the answer, the water of life to quench man’s thirst forever. He’s the only hope for the world. Man is doomed without Jesus; so let’s not act or pretend as though there’re alternatives. Jesus is the way—the ONLY way.
