Is Jesus the only way to Heaven?

Answer: Yes!

These are all common rationalizations, but the truth is that they are all lies. Satan, the ruler of the world, plants these thoughts in our heads. He, and anyone who follows his ways, is an enemy of God (1Peter 5:8 ). Satan is a deceiver and often disguises himself as someone good (2 Corinthians 11:14), but he has control over all the minds that do not belong to God. "The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God" (2 Corinthians 4:4).

It is a lie to believe that God doesn't care about small sins or that hell is reserved for "bad people." All sin separates us from God, even a â€œlittle white lie.â€ Everyone has sinned, and no one is good enough to get to heaven on their own (Romans 3:23). Getting into heaven is not based on whether our good outweighs our bad; we will all lose out if that is the case. "And if by grace, then it is no longer by works; if it were, grace would no longer be grace" (Romans 11:6). We can do nothing good to earn our way to heaven (Titus 3:5).

"Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it" (Matthew 7:13). Even if everyone else is living a life of sin in a culture where trusting in God is not popular, God will not excuse it. "As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins, in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient" (Ephesians 2:1-2).

When God created the world, it was perfect and good. Then he made Adam and Eve and gave them their own free will, so they would have a choice whether to follow and obey God. But they were tempted by Satan to disobey God, and they sinned. This separated them (and everyone that came after them, including us) from being able to have a close relationship with God. He is perfect and holy and must judge sin. As sinners, we couldn't reconcile ourselves to God on our own. So God made a way that we could be united with Him in heaven. "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life" (John 3:16). "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Romans 6:23). Jesus was born to die for our sins so that we would not have to. Three days after His death, He rose from the grave (Romans 4:25), proving Himself victorious over death. He bridged the gap between God and man so that we may have a personal relationship with Him if we only believe.

"Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent" (John 17:3). Most people believe in God, even Satan does. But to receive salvation, we must turn to God, form a personal relationship, turn away from our sins, and follow Him. We must trust in Jesus with everything we have and everything we do. "This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference" (Romans 3:22). The Bible teaches that there is no other way to salvation than through Christ. Jesus says in John 14:6, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."

Jesus is the only way of salvation because He is the only One who can pay our sin penalty (Romans 6:23). No other religion teaches the depth or seriousness of sin and its consequences. No other religion offers the infinite payment of sin that only Jesus Christ could provide. No other â€œreligious founderâ€ was God become man (John 1:1,14) â€“ the only way an infinite debt could be paid. Jesus had to be God so that He could pay our debt. Jesus had to be man so He could die. Salvation is available only through faith in Jesus Christ! â€œSalvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be savedâ€ (Acts 4:12).

Christ Our Lord is God who came down from Heaven.
The Word Made Flesh.

He is the Messiah promised in olden days.
He is Salvation and Eternal Life, the means for which we are to be saved.

How can many ask if there is any salvation aside from Jesus?
For there is No One beside Jesus Christ The Lord.

If you reject Jesus, you reject salvation from The Most High.
And doom yourself to everlasting pyre.

It is simple.

We are all Christian brothers in Christ, Buwad igsoon. Be it if we are Catholic, Orthodox, Lutheran, Pentecostal, Baptist, Aglipayan, Iglesia Ni Christo, Presbyterian, Anglican. If you believe in your heart and your soul that Jesus Christ is The Lord. And you believe that your sins are washed away by His dying on the cross, and that you believe that you will be raised on the last day, you will be saved.

Salvation Is only for those who believe in Him, and Honor the laws that he said he came to fulfill.

The overall arguments we make on another as Christian brothers is futile, manner of worship may differ, translation may differ. But the yolk of the message of Salvation does not change.

I hope that answers your question, bro.

Jesus Christ Told His apostles that His Father's Mansion has many rooms.

Meaning that there is space for anyone and all who believe in Him. Race, gender, creed, do not matter.

We learned already from the conversion of the Roman Centurion under the hand of Peter the Apostle. The conversion of former pagan Greeks and Romans. The early Romans and Greeks risked all to believe in Jesus, many of them died in the arena and the gladiatoral games, simply refusing to denounce their faith in Jesus Christ!

Can you imagine? They died for their faith. Blessing those who persecuted them, till the very end.

If we, children of Christ, were to have that kind of faith our brothers and sisters that lived before us, it would be so beautiful.

St. Timothy tells us that being a christian will never be easy. For there will be those that will tempt us, make one question. It is up to the individual, to stick to the faith.

Scripture tells us:
"You, however, know all about my teaching, my way of life, my purpose, faith, patience, love, endurance, 11persecutions, sufferingsâ€”what kinds of things happened to me in Antioch, Iconium and Lystra, the persecutions I endured. Yet the Lord rescued me from all of them. 12In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted, 13while evil men and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. 14But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it, 15and how from infancy you have known the holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 16All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, 17so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work."

2 Timothy 3: 10-17

I know what you mean, Buwad. Dili man ta mo worship ang saints. The saints are there as a guide, their acts in life were soley based on the worship of Jesus, faith in Jesus, acts on Jesus, dying for Jesus.

The saints are merely there for our own guide. For many who are called sometimes falter, their faith wanes because they are tempted, they are persecuted, sometimes even forced to change beliefs.

The Lord Jesus even says to us that we are all saints. All of us that believes in the Lord.

Peace.

Buwad igsoon,

We will all differ in aspects, and meanings when it comes to Scripture, even in the family of Catholicism, there are differences in practice, faith. Same in Baptist churches, presbyterian churches, methodist churches.

In my limited experience from attending collegiate meetings with fellow Christian brothers and sisters, there are so much similarity between all of us. There are sole truths that other protestant brothers and orthodox brothers keep that are in line with what the RCC has taught and proclaimed.

Na'ay differences, of course.

Even after the death of Jesus Christ Our Lord, there were differences in professing scripture amongst Timothy, Paul, and Peter, and John, and Luke.

Blessed Peter sometimes had to correct Paul and Timothy. If you read the books in New Testament. But in the end, the beauty of it is that there they were reconciled in their faith. Timothy, Luke and John, who once did not like Paul (Saul as he was known before) due to Paul's links to the death of Stephen.

But as Paul reminds us, that humility is always best. Paul refers to himself as the 'least' or 'Last' because he was the last to be an Apostle. Though he did not see Christ face to face as often as the rest of the Apostles, HE saw Christ in the road. Where he was blinded, and from then, he former Saul became known as Paul. A follower of Christ.

Differences can be ameliorated, my friend. In Christ Jesus, anything and everything is possible.

He parted the waters fro Moses.

He raised Lazarus from the dead

And he fed thousands, healed thousands, and continues to do so today.

God Bless, bro.

Paul was the first of the Apostles to convert non-Jews. Many other of the apostles questioned why he did this, as the thought of the day was that Jesus was the Messiah for the Jews. Not for Gentiles (non-gews, greeks, romans, slaves, african etc).

Paul's message to us is beautiful, guys. Though he converted Jews, his main goal was to convert the Gentiles. So as that salvation could be for them as well.

The meaning and beauty recieve from the works of Paul the Apostle is the power of faith. Salvation is for anyone, anyone who yearn to be saved, and open their hearts to Jesus.

Paul was less conservative as the rest of the Apostles. But was the conservatism of the rest of the Apostles wrong? No. Of course not.

Jesus Christ Our Lord instilled in all of them the Holy Spirit in Pentecost so that they could speak in foreign tongues to all peoples whom they would spread the word. Peter himself going to Rome and lead the conversion of the Roman Empire from within.

The meaning: There will be differences in methodology, but the sole truth is proclaimed. We could all learn so much from the reconciliation with Paul and Timothy Luke and John.

God Bless,

Jesus Christ is our faith, our preservation, bro.

Don't do things to prove other people. But do it because you love Jesus.
And because he LOVES you!!!

Dont worry about what people say, always stick to your faith. Jesus is the way. Always.

For the faithful Christian this is never an issue - Jesus is the only way to heaven because He said so and as Bible Christians we put our faith to it. We take His word for it. And the only logical reason I could find (of course, faith is really what helps us rise above our inability to reason sometimes!) is what they have Jesus saying in the gospels that "those who are His hear His voice... because they belong to His flock." Needless to say, if one is not a member of His flock and would rather live outside the family circle (The Body of Christ) will find this very strange or even foreign to them no matter how much explaining one does. And that goes the same way if they try to explain their belief-system to us, Christians. Am I making sense?

This has been a very special verse that has helped me along in my life. We should take care of the feelings that we keep in our hearts because they can really affect our lives. If we keep good feelings in our hearts, then we will have a happy life. On the other hand, if we keep bad feelings our lives will be empty and full of sorrows.

While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
No cost to pay too great -- was rejected.

Christ Jesus--the Word Made Flesh,
And the Word was the Creation of All Things,
humbled himself,
in the form of man,
by becoming man, he took up and challenged the sins of man's fall and the reign of Satan.

By becoming man, he de-authorized Satan.
By preaching and spreading the word of Salvation on high,
he re-established the connection between God Almighty The Father and fallen man.
By dying on the cross, he died and destroyed our sins, and purged Satan's hold on earth.
By rising on the 3rd day, he fulfilled and eradicated sin's control.
Defeating Satan and his legions, warning to them, that their doom was nigh.

That the CHRIST was risen,
THE WORD had come, had risen,
God in the Flesh, returning to his ethereal throne,
and paving the way for man, and those who believed in Him, towards SALVATION.

So that those who believed in HIM, CHRIST JESUS!
Would be spared the eternal damnation of Hell,
which is prescribed for the fate of Satan and his fallen legions,
and those who do not accept salvation.

CHRIST IS SALVATION.
The route on High.
The chalice of salvation
the body of life.

No other mediator between God the Father and Man but Jesus.

Jesus first, and only.

As Jesus has authority over all Angels: cherubim, seraphim, all archangels.
All of the heavenly hosts bow before the name of Jesus.
Made by the Word of Jesus.

The Lord is the Everlasting God.
Creator of all the Earth
Who never goes weary
NO one can understand the depths of his understanding
He gives power ot the weak and STRENGTH to the powerless.

But those who TRUST in the Lord will find new strength
THey will walk and not faint
They will run and not grow weary
They will soar high like on the wings of Eagles.

(reference to Isaiah 40)

JESUS! MY EVERLASTING GOD!

And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son.

-- He who has the Son has life;
-- He who does not have the Son of God does not have life.

These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may KNOW that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.

unsaon man nato pagdawat si Jesus? aron makauban sa heaven?

Good Morning jsr,

I was brought to contemplation with your honest question. Let me provide some things that you should read. And I do openly invite you, igsoon, to openly read Scripture. And Search the beautiful passages that is the Word of the Eternal Living God. You are also more than welcome to join us in our Bible Study thread here.

But for the purpose of your question, here:

For our sins, we all deserve to die. Death and hell are the punishment for sin. But, not only is God perfect and sinless, He is also merciful and loving.

The Lord is... long-suffering toward us, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
-2 Peter 3:9

But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound.
-Romans 5:20

----

Because Jesus was perfect and blameless, He alone was worthy to cleanse us from our sins. And the only way He could do that was to die for us, because the punishment for sin is death.

The shedding of the blood of Jesus on the cross is the only way that our sins can be forgiven.

Jesus Christ... loved us, and washed us from our sins in His own blood...
-Revelation 1:5

But God shows His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
-Romans 5:8

Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down His life for His friends.
-John 15:13 (Jesus speaking)

(Jesus) bore our sins in His own body on the cross, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness. By Jesus's lashes you were healed.
-1 Peter 2:24

---

The only requirement is to make Jesus the personal Lord of your life. Without Jesus, there is no reconciliation with God. Without faith in Jesus, there can be no forgiveness or eternal life. Good works will not save you, either, even if they far outweigh your bad deeds.

Jesus said unto him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes unto the Father, but by me."
-John 14:6

When the Son of Man shall come in His glory and all the holy angels with Him, then shall He sit upon the throne of His glory: and before Him shall be gathered all nations: and He shall separate them one from another. Then shall the King say unto them on His right hand, "Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world." Then shall He say also unto them on the left hand, "depart from Me, you cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels."
-Matthew 25:32-34,41

For by grace are you saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast.
-Ephesians 2:8,9

--------------

Realize, though, that living for Christ doesn't just mean that you say a prayer, get out of going to hell, and live the same life you always have. Salvation is an ongoing and life-long process. It is the daily pursuit of Jesus and a real relationship with him. It is dying to your own desires and living for God's desires. And the more your life is changed by the word of God, the more you will realize the goodness his ways bring to you and how unfulfilling the ways of the flesh are.

What man is he that desires life, and loves many days, that he may see good? Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking deceit. Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it. The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.
-Psalms 34:12-15

If you will confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and will believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart man believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

He died for our sin ug giluwas ta Nija sa dagdilaab nga kajo nga way pagkapawong. Nagpakamatay Sija alang ug tungod nato mao nga ang una natong buhaton, atong ilhon ug dawaton si Kristo sa atong kinabuhi. Sugdan nato kini sa pagbasa sa Ijang balaanong mga pulong diha sa Biblia.

Sa Biblia ra nato makita ug masubajan nga ang Ginoo diay gimahal ta pag-ajo ug sa walay pangajo'g baylo sa tanan. P.S. Mag-amping sa pagpili sa Biblia nga basahon tungod kay ang Biblia sa Protestante kuwang, specifically ang Deutronomikanhong Basahon.

Dili ta mamati sa uban, paminawa mismo kung unsay imong gibati ug gituohan. Matud pa nga dili tanang motawag Nija ug Ginoo Ija. Mag-amping. Sakutan nato ug COMMITMENT ang atong pagpangita ni Kristo sa atong mga Kinabuhi tungod kay kung wa ta ani mura lamang ta sa liso nga nahulog sa kabatoan, sa una mutubo pero sa kadugajan mangalawos ra.

Amen!

We have alot of questions in life, questions on matters of life, doubts, etc. When the mind thinks too much, asks too much questions and logical explanations for things--it can be a hindrance.

There is a time for logics, and there is a time for FAITH. Trust.

You see, a relationship with Christ is like a lifelong relationship with a loved one, a wife, husband, mother, father. Total Trust is necessary. Surrendering to God everthing.

Put all your trust in HIM, praise HIM, bless HIM!
And when he pours out all HIS blessings to you, bless HIM back! Give it all back!
For the Lord gives and gives! hehe, A healthy relationship with GOD is a trusting relationship. Trusting HIM with everything, and ALL things. hehe

Be Good!

Brod Lorenzo, please enlightened me for I am confused, though I am a Catholic and I do believed Jesus. I am not a Bible reader but trying to follow his commandments (not perfectly). I do praying directly to him and seldom to attend masses in church. I guess since birth, I can count on my fingers for the time I confessing my sins to priests.
Now, that I am working in the Middle East for almost 10 years, then, how much more time that I cannot attend masses in church except when I gone for vacation. Normally, I went only to Blessed Sacrament Chapel in Cathedral where I like most because of the silent surrounding and peaceful environment while praying, praising,thanksgiving and confessing.
In here, I have Muslim friends and most of them are Mutawa (Imam). They convinced me to convert into Islam but most of the time my replies is that, religion is not the answer for salvation instead it is how you follow the commandments of God and what you did while still living in this world, either within your personal daily activities or towards other person whom you are dealing with.
Please correct me and what else I will do and answer to those who are still convincing me to Islam by not offending them. I will never exchange my God (Jesus) to another God.

Way to go, efbsister... God loves you no matter what. Jesus once said, "the day will come when you worship God not on this mountain nor in Jerusalem."

As far as going to Church is concerned: He left us some sacraments to help us on our way, to stengthen our resolve to follow Him and do good for others... Our life of thanksgiving should lead us back to Him. If you believe the Church is Christ's sacrament in the world... mao sad nang maningkamot lang pod tag avail - when able to - sa mga sacraments the dispenser of which is assigned to the Church by Jesus himself: "You are Peter, upon this rock I will build my Church, etc..."

It's really a matter of faith.

To those who believe otherwise... nagpuyo pod sila sa ilang gesunod nga pagtoo or world view. Adto pod sila didto mag laruy-laroy sa ilang plaza sa pagtoo!!!

Good Afternoon And Peace and Blessings of The Lord Jesus Christ be with you, brother!
I pray and beg the Lord Jesus Christ to strenthen your faith in Him, and to never forget His salvation that He has offered to you!

Thank you for sharing your story and your personal anectdote, friend. And I am touched by your plea. Fr. R is correct, you must and you have to be strong in your faith, for faith is tested, and it is then when your faith is preserved in you, you shall mount in Salvation, to which Your Lord Your God Jesus Christ has preserved for you.

My friend, I want to reiterate lang the tenents of Christian Faith.

You are Christian if you believe in mind and soul and in vocal reiteration---that The Lord Jesus Christ is the Eternal Word Made Flesh. Do you believe that Christ Jesus was sent down from Heaven for the satisfaction of Sins and that He was crucified and was burried. Do you believe that He was raised in GLORIOUS RESURRECTION on the 3rd day by HIS FATHER IN HEAVEN?
And do you believe that your sins are wiped away by His death on the cross? And that do you BELIEVE IN HIM, AND HIM ALONE? Do you accept in your heart the Lord Jesus Christ as your LORD AND PERSONAL SAVIOR?
All you have to do, brother is say yes, and glorify in the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved. Now. You will be saved.

My brother, there is no name under heaven that you will be saved besides that of Jesus Christ LORD.

ACTS 4:8-12,
Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them: "Rulers and elders of the people! 9If we are being called to account today for an act of kindness shown to a cripple and are asked how he was healed, 10then know this, you and all the people of Israel: It is by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified but whom God raised from the dead, that this man stands before you healed. 11He is
" 'the stone you builders rejected,
which has become the capstone. 12Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved."

---

There is no other name that you will be saved, but In Jesus Christ, who is LORD!
It is explicit, my friend, that there is no other man, nor any other deity but in THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.
Allah, or muhammad is not mentioned in the bible. Nor shall they save you. These teachings by Muhammad is false prophetry.

The HOLY BIBLE mentions these false heresies. And to beware of false prophets.
There can be no other prophet after Jesus Christ. For Jesus Christ is the LORD GOD MADE FLESH.
He is the seal of the prophets. Any other man who claims to be a prophet after Christ is the anti-christ.
My friend, Islam declares that Christ Jesus was not GOD, but say that he was 'issa' and was a prophet.
They deny Christ as the SAVIOR LORD.

Jesus Christ said," Those who Deny me before men, so shall I deny them before MY FATHER IN HEAVEN."
Matthew 10:33, "But whoever denies Me before men, I will also deny him before My Father who is in heaven."

Remember that, brother.

Additionally brother, The Apostles, explicitly warn us, the body of Christ, to beware of false prophets.
Here are following verses in the HOLY BIBLE that reiterates this same warning. Beware of False Prophets.

----

Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheepâ€™s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. (16) You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles? (17) Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. (18) A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. (19) Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. (20) Therefore by their fruits you will know them.
Matthew 7:15-20

But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction. (2) And many will follow their destructive ways, because of whom the way of truth will be blasphemed. (3) By covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words; for a long time their judgment has not been idle, and their destruction does not slumber.
2 Peter 2:1-3,

Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. (2) By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, (3) and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.
1 John 4:1-3,

-----------------

John 5:23 - that all should honor the Son just as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.

John 8:24 - â€œTherefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for if you do not believe that I AM He, you will die in your sins.â€

John 8:58 - Then Jesus said to them, â€œMost assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM.â€

John 10:30-33 - Jesus answered them, â€œI and My Father are one.â€ Then the Jews took up stones again to stone Him. Jesus answered them, â€œMany good works I have shown you from My Father. For which of those works do you stone Me?â€ The Jews answered Him, saying, â€œFor a good work we do not stone You, but for blasphemy, and because You, being a Man, make Yourself God.â€

John 14:6-7 - Jesus said to him, â€œI AM the way, the truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.â€

My friend, I had friends who tried to convert me to Islam in college. I was open enough to read the Q'uran and discuss with them, and I asked my friend if he would be willing to read the bible as well; in exchange that I would read the Quran. We did that.

He had many questions for me, regarding the Holy Bible, for there are many things that the 'Quran leaves out.

Suffice to say, my friend, Khalid, converted to Christianity before his term ended in '2007. He was the Arab T.A for Introduction To Arabic. He was from Jordan, and he and i read the bible together, verse per verse, and was very touched how he was overwhelmed by the Holy Spirit.

He was touched by the HOLY SPIRIT, and glorified in the Name of Jesus Christ LORD.
It was in Spring 2007 that he became Christian.
He tried to convert me to Islam, but in the end, he , by the GRACE OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, and the HOLY SPIRIT WHO PROCEEDS FORM THE FATHER AND THE SON, Khalid received SALVATION.

BROTHER! THERE IS NO OTHER NAME UNDER HEAVEN TO WHICH WE WILL BE SAVED, BUT JESUS CHRIST LORD.

AMEN! AMEN! AMEN!

God Bless You!
God Bless Your Faith!
Hold ON To Your Salvation!
No matter how hard the devils try to convince you otherwise.

The Lord Jesus Christ tells us that He is the only way to salvation, and He specifically tells us, and promises us that through HIM, we will be empowered with the gift of the Holy Spirit. You see, my dear brothers and sisteres in Christ, the Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father and the Son.

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7 If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on you do know him and have seen him.”
--John 14:6-8

“If you love me, you will keep my commandments. 16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you forever, 17 even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and will be in you.

Sigi lang ta hisgut ug Jesus is the way to heaven pero daghan japun tag gihapitan, gikapyutan, giludhan ug uban pa.

There is a verse in the Book of Philippians, Chapter 2 that answers and addresses your concern, Dabinsi.

:Shining as Stars

12Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyedâ€”not only in my presence, but now much more in my absenceâ€”continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, 13for it is God who works in you to will and to act according to his good purpose.
14Do everything without complaining or arguing, 15so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe 16as you hold out[c] the word of lifeâ€”in order that I may boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor for nothing. 17But even if I am being poured out like a drink offering on the sacrifice and service coming from your faith, I am glad and rejoice with all of you. 18So you too should be glad and rejoice with me.
(Philippians 2:1-18)

With fear and trembling we must work out our own salvation. We must labor for it. Labor for it.
Nothing in life comes easy, its hard work as what Paul addresses us. And even if there are rocky roads and pebbles that come our ways, we must, MUST, continue toward the goal in Jesus Christ. Must and Always.

And I reiterate, Be Good.

I am not questioning you. I am merely saying: Be Good.

Not just to you, but to everyone who listens and chooses to listen.

Be Good. Always be Good.

IN CHRIST,

The Name of the song is "Shepherd me O God"

It is based on Psalm 23,

And it fulfills and completes the shepherdic message of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Who steers and commands the sheep whom longs for Him.
Who rests in HIS Word and Mercy.

-----

To Everyone who Listens and Chooses to Listen:

Jesus Christ is LORD.
There can be no other way of salvation, but in Jesus Christ ALONE.
For The LORD is the Life, The Way, and the Resurrection.

A friend who is a practicing Hindu once asked me about the teachings of Christianity,
asking what will happen to those (incuding Hindus) who do not believe in Christ, will they be saved?

I gave him the truthful answer.
I gave him a verse from The Holy Scripture of the Holy Bible:

A Verse from John 8:24
And Jesus Said to them who would not believe, "I told you that you would die in your sins; if you do not believe that I am the one I claim to be, you will indeed die in your sins."

---
A man who does not live and believe in their hearts that Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior,
will not be accepted by the Father.
For the Father sent Christ to be the very WAY to GOD.
If You Reject the WAY, You Reject Salvation,
and are thereby destined to the ETERNAL PYRE THAT IS HELL!

There is no salvation in any other deity.
No salvation in Muhammad or Allah, or Vishnu or Krisha or any other.

There is no salvation in anyone else , BUT JESUS CHRIST WHO IS LORD.

Repent Now and be SAVED!
