2 Jesus - - The Way, The Truth, And The Life
John 14:1-6

3 Words And Intent Of The Passage
Notice that they are singular - - “way”-“truth”-“life” Comparable to other singular usage Way of holiness (Isa. 35:8, KJV) Way of God (Acts 18:26) Way of salvation (Acts 16:17) As there is only one Savior, so is there only one way, one truth, and one life

4 Latter half of passage “No one comes to the Father but through Me”
Similarity to John 10:1 Jesus is the door (Jn. 10:7) Only one way to enter Peter said it well in Acts 4:12

5 Each Point Examined The way (Lk. 20:21)
The truth (Heb. 1:2; Jn. 7:16-17) The life (Jn. 6:68; 10:10)

6 Application All our focus should be on Jesus
We need to drink deeply from His word To turn neither to the right or to the left To meet the mark, not coming up sort or going beyond

7 Only two possible sources for religious authority (Matt. 21:25)
“But why do you call Me ‘Lord, Lord’ and not do what I say?” (Lk. 6:46) Do we believe Jesus to be the way, the truth, and the life? Then we ought to follow His teaching Only two possible sources for religious authority (Matt. 21:25)

8 All spiritual blessings are in Christ (Eph. 1:3)
Redemption is in Christ (Eph. 1:7; Col. 1:14) We must become a “new creature” in Christ (2 Cor. 5:17) We must be baptized into Christ (Gal. 3:27)
