Being humans, we like to be independent. We want to go our own way. We’ll drive lost, trying to figure out how to get to a destination, refusing to stop and ask for directions. Sadly, many journey through life, never arriving at the destination they hoped to see. Our eternity is too important. We can’t hope to arrive there someday. We can’t rely on our own instincts to get us to Heaven. I’ve heard people say, “I’m trying to be a good person. I think I’ll be alright in the end.”
Main Points:
1. Since Heaven is a city built by God, we must let Him inform us as to how we can get there. Thankfully, in His Word, He has made it clear. In the Bible, we are informed there is only one road to Heaven, not many roads, and certainly not just any road of our choosing.
2. Where you are wanting to go, there is only one way to get there. Salvation and forgiveness of our sins is only found in Jesus. It’s only through Jesus that we have access to the Father. It’s only through Jesus that we find the doorway to Heaven.
3. The Bible doesn’t leave us with vague, unclear directions. The path is marked out for us and its crystal clear. There is only one road to Heaven. It is found through faith in Jesus Christ, as we make Him our Savior and Lord.
Today’s Scripture Verses:
Acts 4:12 - "Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.”
1 John 5:13 - “I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life.”
