Let God Help

A. Biblical Basis
John 14:6: Jesus Himself stated, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." This verse is frequently cited as a clear declaration of the exclusivity of Christ in the context of salvation.
Acts 4:12: The Apostle Peter declares, "Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved."

​

B. The Nature of Jesus
Jesus is both fully God and fully man, which is foundational to His role as the mediator between God and humanity. As the Son of God, His sacrifice is seen as the perfect atonement for sin, making reconciliation with God possible.

C. Role of Faith
Salvation is received through faith in Jesus Christ (Ephesians 2:8-9). This faith is not just intellectual assent, but a personal trust in Jesus as Savior and Lord. Through faith in Him, individuals can receive forgiveness and eternal life.

D. Theological Distinctions
While other religions and philosophies may offer paths to moral living or spiritual fulfillment, Christianity asserts that none can provide the means of reconciliation with God apart from faith in Jesus. This distinction is significant within the Christian worldview.

E. Historical Context
The early Christian church was characterized by a strong commitment to the belief that Jesus was the sole means of access to God, as evidenced by the testimonies and writings of the apostles.

F. God’s Love and Redemption

God’s desire is for all people to come to Him (1 Timothy 2:3-4). The sacrificial love demonstrated in Jesus’ death and resurrection is God's provision for humanity's salvation, emphasizing the depth of His love and grace.
