“For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus.” ​ ​1 Timothy 2:5.
One of the most often-asked questions regarding the Christian faith goes something like this:
“What about the person who has never heard that Jesus is the only way to God?
What about the person in the middle of the jungle who has never heard the gospel?”

The teaching that Jesus Christ is the only way to God has never been popular.
But maybe it has never been more controversial than it is today.

If you want to get someone’s blood boiling, then say that Jesus is the only way to God.
The “coexist” bumper sticker on their car will catch fire.

The idea that you would have the audacity to say that Jesus is the only way is, in effect, saying that other religions are not true.

But when you dare to say that He is the only way-
– then you can be certain that will have some pushback.

But here is what it comes down to.

We have to say what the Bible says, whether it is popular or not.
It is not for me to edit the message of the Bible; it is for me, as a Christian, to simply deliver it.

It would be like a doctor’s discovering a very serious problem with a patient’s health-
– but then being unwilling to say what that problem is, because it might make that patient uncomfortable.

We have to tell people the truth about their real condition-
– which happens to be sinful,
– and then seek to save them,
– which is to point them to Jesus Christ as the only solution.
