Key Scripture: John 14:1-7

Throughout the gospels Jesus used a series of I am statements to tell the people who he was and what he was about. In John 14 he says, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one gets to the Father except through me.”

People have used this verse over the years to explain why only people that believe the “right” things get to go to heaven, so how can God be for all people if this verse appears to say otherwise? Maybe if we looked at the story from a different perspective, we will see that something else was going on.
