One plus one is two and truth is just as narrow. So if Jesus
said I am the way the truth and the life and no one come to the father but
through me what dose that mean… well thank u for asking It means that if one
dose not know Jesus they do not know the Father. But you say “Jacob! I don’t
now believe in the bible! I believe that Jesus was just a good man” I say two
things to that. One first of all in historical terms the bibles Gospels (the
good news that the GOD MAN Jesus died for you the worst of sinners A.K.A
YOU!!!) that we have about Jesus were written with in one generation of his
death. Which means that anyone that wish to say “that is a lie I was there” it
would have been that generation and on top of that it was the Passover witch
mean that a large group of Jews were there from other places like Asia, Rome,
and Africa so even when the Gospel went other places like Rome it could have
been denied there as well. Yet it was not and is still going. Second: now that
we see that the Gospel can be trusted we can see that Jesus him self said that
only God is good.
17 And
as he was setting out on his journey, a man ran up and knelt before him and
asked him, “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” 18 And Jesus said to him, “Why do
you call me good? No one is good except God alone. 19 You know the commandments:
‘Do not murder, Do not commit adultery, Do not steal, Do not bear false
witness, Do not defraud, Honor your father and mother.’” 20 And he said to him, “Teacher, all these I have
kept from my youth.” 21 And Jesus, looking at
him, loved him, and said to him, “You lack one thing:
go, sell all that you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in
heaven; and come, follow me.” 22 Disheartened by the saying, he went away
sorrowful, for he had great possessions.” Translation (ESV)
This is one places, of many, were Jesus challenges us to see
that he did not see himself as a man but as an equal with God. Plus this
statement comes form Mark which was the first Gospel and written for accuracy.
So we know ether say ”No not so much ” or say “My will is not my own and I
summit to the love and grace that was given to me on the cross and now will
LOVE GOD “JESUS” for he love me first and forgave me”
P.S.
the bible stats that Jews find the Messiah’s death a stumbling block and the Gentiles
(A.K.A not a Jew; you) fine it to be foolish. So call me a fool or mistaken but
I know what has happen to my own life and in history. God made himself man, a
perfect man that could pay the price that we are indebted to. For God is just
and must pay the price that we cannot pay |
