Our culture teaches us that there are many ways to God, and each world religion is a valid path to him. But the Bible says that there is only one way to God: through Jesus Christ.
Talking Points:
- The prevailing belief in American culture is that everybody’s path to God is a valid path. This means that every religion is right or legitimate. The Bible makes it clear that salvation is only possible through Jesus. Acts 4:12
- “Salvation in no one else.” When we read that salvation comes through “no one else” the Bible is saying that Jesus is the only savior we have. He isn’t one of many saviors.
- Jesus is the only savior for every person who has ever existed and who will exist in the future. The only way for any human to find salvation is through Jesus Christ. 1 John 5:11-12
Discussion:
- Initial reactions to this topic? What jumped out at you?
- How important is this question when it comes to understanding God?
- Read Acts 4:12 and 1 John 5:11-12. If Jesus is the only savior, how does this change the way you think about God?
- How should we handle Bible teaching that may be difficult to accept?
- Is there a step you need to take based on today’s topic?
