18th Post - What Jesus Said... About "The Life"

We looked at two Passages under this heading - John 11: 25 - 26 & John 14: 6.
John 11: 25 - 26 says that Jesus is the resurrection and the life. If you believe in Jesus even though you may die yet shall you live. This is quite a bold statement, coming from a 30 year old man, and suggests that Jesus has greater authority then other men. You have to decide if Jesus was who He said He was. The only person who would have this authority would be God, the Creator of Heaven and Earth and all things contained therein. This is why we are studying Jesus' words. We know that God can not lie, and Jesus being God would also be bound to this truth and likewise can not lie. This is how you will be able to expose false christ's that will appear in the last days. Of all the religions of the world, Christianity is the only one that teaches that God gave His only Son to die to save us from our sins. We have to believe this. In the process of this study we will look at what Jesus said and did in order for us to believe that He was the Son of God. You are the only one who can decide the answer to the question of Jesus being God or not. The evidence is in the Bible and anyone can learn the truth. Only God has control over every aspect of man's life and afterlife. John 14:6 takes Jesus authority one step further, it claims that Jesus is the only way to the Father. By getting to the Father you will be in Heaven because that is where God the Father lives. This sounds very narrow minded, but ask yourself what other God sent His Son to die for your sins? There is only one! If there is only one, how can people say that all paths lead to Heaven? Jesus suffered and died to earn the right to make this claim. You must decide who is right.
