In a culture that prizes many paths, we asked one of the most important questions anyone can wrestle with: Is Jesus the only way?
Rather than answering with opinions, we opened Scripture to see why He can be, why He must be, and how He is the Way.
What we covered:
-
Can He be the only way? The universality of sin makes self-rescue impossible
Romans 3:9–18 — none is righteous, no not one. Universal guilt demands a singular righteousness. -
Why must He be the only way? God’s holiness and mercy meet in one provision
Romans 3:19–22; Hebrews 9:22; Ephesians 2:4–7 — “But now” the righteousness of God is revealed apart from the law. Forgiveness requires blood; grace makes us alive with Christ. -
How is He the only way? The cross satisfies justice and secures our justification
Romans 3:23–26 — all have sinned, and are justified by grace through the redemption in Christ Jesus. God remains just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.
Big idea:
Exclusivity isn’t cruelty; it’s clarity and mercy. If sin is universal, salvation must be singular. If no one seeks God, only God coming to us in Christ can save. The cross wasn’t one option among many; it was the only way holy justice and lavish mercy could both stand.
Next step:
If you’ve been searching for “a way,” meet the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Watch the full message, reflect on these passages, and respond to Jesus’ invitation.
