COT:
Two verses from John…

In John 14:6, Jesus said “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but through me.” That’s a pretty bold statement! That’s not only a truth claim, it’s a claim that every other way is false.

In John 3:36, John says “Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him.” It sounds like a lot is on the line here, am I right??

Last Sunday on Easter, the pastor at Fellowship told the congregation that “I believe in Christianity, not because it’s helpful or helps me through hard times. I believe in Christianity because it’s true.” Good answer. I believe it to be true, also, and it’s the reason I am a Christian.

There are many world views and religions and they all believe in different things about God and his nature. What makes one triumph over the rest? If they are all so different then they can’t all be true, right?? Isn’t that important?

I asked my son once, Why are we Christians? Have you ever been asked that? How would you respond? Could you answer that in one sentence? My 13 year old son, at the time, couldn’t find the words to articulate his beliefs and he was a bit stumped. I told him the answer to that question is… “Because Christianity is the best explanation for the way things are in reality.” It has an answer for every challenge. Will it convince everyone…no! In fact, it will convince far fewer than it will not. And, the Bible even makes that very claim.

Are the Gospels reliable? Is the Bible the inerrant Word of God? Is Jesus really who He says He is? There are many good reasons to trust in Jesus as God, the Bible as God’s word, and the claim that Christianity is true. If you want to dive deeper into that, do some research and find the answers for yourself. That, or you know how to reach me.
