Pj| There is no more dangerous sleep for the conscience than the anesthetic which says: "We’re all going to the same place; we’re just taking different roads.” If there is one thing that the Bible makes clear it is that humanity is headed for one of two places, and that those who get to heaven get there in only one way—through faith ■ c■. in the redemption of Christ, , I It was Christ who said: “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life; no man cometh to the Father but by Me.” John 14:6. Christ knew no other way to heaven than through faith in His atonement. Shortly after Christ’s ascension into heaven, Peter told I the people of His day: “Neither is there salvation in any other; for there is none other name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved.” Acts 4:12. This is a free country, of course; and anyone who wants to say “we’re all going to the same place; we’re just taking different roads” has a perfect “right” to say so. But in saying I so he should realize that he has made up his own religion, a religion which runs counter to the express words of Christ ana has nothing in coWmon'with Bibld ’Christianity.' • . . Christ says there is only one way. And He is that way. You will hear more about this “one way" at our special Lenten services.
