In the politically correct society in which we live today, we are continually being reminded that there are many ways people can find their way to God. Christians are judged to be intolerant, bigoted, or worse, if we appear to disparage any one else’s views on reality or God. As a result, we can be bullied into silence or compliance or even heresy.
A Christian’s views are not determined by the opinions of newscasters or public opinion polls, but by God’s word. On this subject Scripture is clear: there is no other way to God but through the mediation of Jesus Christ. We must believe what Scripture tells us. If we begin to assume that people who are sincere can discover other paths to God, we will never be driven by the missionary impulse God expects of us. We will not have the sense of urgency that drove the First Century Christians to lay down their lives to spread the Gospel. If we truly believe what the Bible says, we will not be able to live with ourselves if we have not told our friends and colleagues how to embrace the Person of Christ.
There is only one God and one mediator between God and people, and that is Christ. Are you telling people about Him?
