No Other Name
Devotions:
God loves people! So why do people go to hell? Because people refuse to receive the love of God. Jesus, praying in garden just before His arrest, prayed:
“And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.”
Matthew 26:39 KJV
The only way to God and heaven is through Jesus. If there were any other way, Jesus would not have had to go to the cross. We cannot take any credit for our salvation. All other religions base salvation on people doing good works to receive God's favor and salvation. There are no works that we can do that are good enough. God knew this so He provided someone who is good enough, Jesus and then had Him take all of our wickedness and pay the full price for our ungodliness.
If Jesus and the Father could not find any other way of salvation, when we reject His provision then there is no other way. Even those who consider themselves to be Christian believe that their salvation is based on their good works out weighing their bad works. Their good works are never good enough. Only Jesus is good enough.
“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 KJV
