I am the Way the Truth and the Life

If Jesus is the Way the Truth and the Life…What are you doing about it?

Religions are diverse and they all believe different things.  Specifically they all belive different things about Jesus


Muslims- Believe Jesus is the precursor of Mohmand and was a prophet

Jehovah Witness – Teach that Jesus and God are not equal and though he is perfect He is not the way.  However, they also teach that before His Earthly life, Jesus was a spirit creature, Michael the archangel, who was created by God and became the Messiah at His baptism. According to Jehovah’s Witnesses, Jesus is a mighty one, although not almighty as Jehovah God is. According to John 1:1 in their Bible, The New World Translation, Christ is “a god,” but not “the God.” They teach that Jesus “was and is and always will be beneath Jehovah” and that “Christ and God are not coequal”.

Mormons- Believe  we're all spirit sons and daughters of God (our Heavenly Father), and thus Jesus is our brother and so is Lucifer, although Lucifer chose to oppose God and His plan, and so he became Satan and will never have a physical body. Mormons believe that God and Jesus Christ are separate beings, we do not believe in the trinity. Other Christians believe in the trinity.


Buddhist - They believe life is about overcoming suffering. They do believe in gods and deities with unlimited powers ... there is NOTHING ATHEISTIC about Buddhism. However, gods are optional which means you do not have to believe in gods to be a Buddhist but most Buddhists do believe in deities.

Atheist – There is no Jesus – shut up already. (joking, not really)

Nones – Nothing In Particular.  Nones are people who, when asked to describe their religious affiliation, respond that they are atheist, agnostic, or “nothing in particular.” As of 2014, the nones, also known as the “unaffiliated,” are the second largest religious grouping in America, coming in just under evangelical Christians.

John 14:1-14

The Lord now begins to discourse with them in view of His departure. He was going where they could not come. To human sight they would be left alone upon the earth. It is to the sense of this apparently desolate condition that the Lord addresses Himself, shewing them that He was an object for faith, even as God was. In doing this, He opens to them the whole truth with respect to their condition. His work is not the subject treated of, but their position by virtue of that work. His Person should have been for them the key to that position, and would be so now: the Holy Ghost, the Comforter, who should come, would be the power by which they should enjoy it, and indeed more yet.


14 “Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God;[a] believe also in me. 2 In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you?[b] 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. (basic funeral eulogy that we hear so many times but look at what it is connected to, not everyone gets the rooms and the promise) 4 And you know the way to where I am going.”[c] 5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?” 6 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.[d] From now on you do know him and have seen him.”

So he has basically got rid of all other religions in this one statement. Jesus declares HIMSELF.


8 Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us.” 9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own authority, but the Father who dwells in me does his works. 11 Believe me that I am in the Father and the  12 “Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I am going to the Father. 13 Whatever you ask in my name, this I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If you ask me[e] anything in my name, I will do it.


Not the only time we hear this statement around and “I am” statement. He is truly the way and when we believe this He works on our behalf. When we begin to believe the I Am’s.

Do you believe that He is the Way the Truth and the Life?
Do you believe that He is the Door and open both and invitation and safety and separation?
Do you believe that He is the vine and we are the branches?
That we will bear fruit that remains?
Do you believe that He is the Bread of Life and we will never hunger again?

So What are you Doing About It?  Are you telling people?

Do you know that east Houma has a mosque?
A coven of witches?
Schools full of unbelievers.
One of the largest consistent gathering in east Houma is the Jehovah witness.

People might say there is already enough churches. But the churches in general has not kept up with the growth of America as a whole. It is estimated that we will need 100,000 more churches just to keep up, but instead churches are closing their doors. We have visited some of those churches with beautiful structure and lots of space but no one is going to them.

There is a disconnect between us BELIEVING that Jesus is the Way, The Truth and the Life and us LIVING that Jesus is the Way, the Truth the Life. It’s easy for me to nod my head in church in my comfort zone it’s another thing to take it to my work place, school, family, and home.

We are one generation away from becoming like the church in Europe. No one goes.
And the devil knows. He keeps disuniting. He keeps up gossip. He keeps up dissension. All to distract that Jesus is the only way. The devil knows that Jesus is the Way is, he just doesn’t want the church to act like He is.

If Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life are you living like it?

Are you faithful to gathering together?  Committed to the cause of Jesus being the way the truth and the life.  America is seeing a decline on faithful church attendance. Even the “churched” don’t often go to church and if they do they are not involved.  It’s hard to invite someone to church if you are not going to absolutely be there.  Are you making conversations happen? Are you telling your friends in love?  Are you telling the unsaved? The lost and dying.

If He truly is the only way, then let’s live like it.  Give up everything to follow Him knowing that there is a place that he is preparing for us in Heaven that is much greater than any heavenly home. He is truly the Way.
