The Only Way

I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Wednesday morning, the 24th of September, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We start in the Gospel of Matthew 26:63-64:”Tell us if you are the Christ, the Son of God!” “ Jesus said to him,’ It is as you said.” Then we go to Mark 14:61-62:”Are you the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?” Jesus said,” I am.” Then lastly, Luke 22:70: ”Then they all said,” Are You then, the Son of God?”  So He said to them,” You rightly say that I am.” I think like never before, my dear friends, we need to be outspoken when it comes to the question, ”Who do you say that He is?”If you look at Matthew 1:23, Jesus is Immanuel, which translates to “God with us.” He is not, “the man upstairs”, He’s not my mate, He’s not one of many gods. He is the Way. There is no other way. The early Christians were not known as “Christians”. They were known as, “followers of the Way.”In John 14:6, Jesus says: ”I am the way…” He goes on to say, ”No one comes to the Father except through Me.” Now, that’s a very controversial statement, but if you do not believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, you cannot be a Christian. We need to be very definite about that, and it could cost you a lot. It could cost you your job, it could cost you your popularity, it could cost you a position in a team, just by saying, ”I believe that Jesus Christ is God made flesh.” Folks, when you do say that, that is when the power of God is within you. I can tell you that for a fact. The more outspoken I get about the love of Christ, the more powerful He is within me.We are not here to criticise other faiths. We don’t have time for that. We are here to speak about our beloved Jesus, who died for us. There is no other faith where their god, that they are following, has professed to be God Almighty, not one. They talk about the son of god. They talk about a disciple of god but Jesus says; “I am the Son of the living God.”Go out today and comfort people, and tell them that Jesus is your Lord and Saviour and He can be theirs as well. All they have to do is to acknowledge it. God bless you and have a wonderful day. Goodbye.
