Jesus said: I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life; no one comes to the Father, but by me.- St. John 14:6
There are many things in this life that offer the promise of life - new medicines, new diets, new products - and people are constantly chasing after things that offer a supposedly better, fuller life. But Jesus Christ came to turn our hearts away from putting our trust in those things that appear to promise life, and He claims our hearts entirely for Himself alone.
Jesus said plainly that He is the Way, that He is the Truth, and that He is the Life. He is the only Way from death to life, from hell to heaven, from the devil to God. He is the only Truth that overcomes the Lie that kills us. He is the only Life that is eternal life.
All other roads, in fact, do lead ultimately to the same place; namely, death and destruction. These other roads may try to provide nice scenery along the way, and they might be very broad and well-traveled, and they might be filled with crowds of very nice, unobjectionable people, but the Lord Jesus teaches us with His own lips and in His own words, that there is only one road that leads to eternal life with God, and that is Christ Himself, who is the Way, the Truth, and the Life.
