John 14:5-7

Thomas said to him, ‘Lord, we don’t know where you are going, so how can we know the way?’ Jesus answered, ‘I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you really knew me, you would know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.’

John 14:8-9

Philip said, ‘Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us.’ Jesus answered: ‘Don’t you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father?’

John 14:10-11

Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you are not just my own. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work. Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the miracles themselves.’

The heart of what Jesus declares in this passage CONTRADICTS the prevailing culture.

Majority belief does not make RIGHT belief.

Every WORLDVIEW excludes an opposing worldview.

By definition, TRUTH is exclusive.

Jesus says, ‘I am the WAY’

Not about what you do, but your RELATIONSHIP

To say all religions are true calling God SCHIZOPHRENIC.

Jesus is the way because He is the TRUTH

It is possible to grow OLDER with Jesus without MATURING in Him.

Truth doesn’t change based on my ability or inability to PERCEIVE it.

Jesus is the way because He is the truth and the LIFE

Many are not experiencing the life He offers because they have an INTELLECTUAL faith, but not a HEART faith.

Why believe? WORDS spoken, CHARACTER seen, EVIDENCE witnessed.

Don’t be ARROGANT with the truth you hold, but be Jesus to a world that needs to SEE.
