Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. (John 14:6 NRSV)
There are those who profess to be Christian; yet, when someone tells them that everyone goes to heaven, they do not tell them the truth. They do not want to hurt the feelings of the person that thinks no matter what you believe you will live eternally in paradise. According to Jesus, that is not happening. If you love them; if you love Jesus, you must tell them the truth. If they refuse to hear, then that is on them. But; if you refuse to speak, your silence will affirm what they falsely believe and that is on you. Your silence will, in effect, deny the truth. Your silence denies Christ.
Jesus is the only way. He is the truth and the truth is all who believe in him is reconciled to the Father eternally in the Kingdom that Jesus prepared for you.
That Kingdom is indeed available to all people. So please let them know that Jesus is the only way to our Father's Kingdom.
God's Peace - Pr. J
