In John 14: Jesus speaks with His disciples concerning Salvation; Thomas asked Jesus, "Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way? Thomas knew Jesus, he just didn’t know Jesus was the "way". Jesus claimed to be the only way, the only truth, and the only life, He said "No man cometh unto the Father, but by Me"! This that anyone who claims to honor Jesus while advocating other ways to get to God, to know the truth, or to have eternal life apart from Jesus alone is deceived and deceiving others. Jesus said He is the truth, and John revealed He is the Living Word. (John 1:1;) People today may know portions of the Bible, but they don’t realize that the words written in the book are the way to victory in every area of their lives. The Word of God is a spiritual Book written by men under the direction of the Holy Spirit. It is not written to our heads but to the inner most part of our hearts. This is why some people find the Bible hard to understand. They are trying to comprehend it in their minds. The Word of God has to inspire our hearts before it can enlighten our minds.
Open your Bible and read it as though the Lord was speaking to the deepest part of you————– because He is.
