BY Bro. Effiong Tom

Text• John 14:6

Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the

life”. No one comes to the Father

except through me. NIV

• Christ is the WAY:

• 1. By his doctrine,

– John 6:68.

• 2. By his example,

– 1Pe 2:21.

• 3. By his sacrifice,

– Heb 9:8,9.

• 4. By his Spirit,

– John 16:13.John 14:6

Num 21:4-9 (NLT)

–V 8. God did not take away the problem but He make a way.

– John 3:14-15

• Today Christ is the WAY Out, In, Forward and Upward

• Mark 4: 37-41– In their

desperation they woke the Lord and accused Him of not caring.

– Is this not what so many believers do today?

Jesus Christ is the WAY Out!

• It is so easy when one's life fills up with the waves of life's problems to accuse the Lord of not caring.

• Jesus does care, just as 1st Peter 5:6-7 promises

• He is The WAY Out

Jesus Christ is the WAY In!

• He is the way In – to: Joy (John 16:21-24)

• 22 So with you: Now is your time of grief, but I will see you again and you will rejoice, and no one will take away your joy. 23 In that day you will no longer ask me anything. I tell you the truth, my Father will give you whatever you ask in my name. 24 Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete. NIV

• Peace etc

Jesus Christ is the WAY Forward!

• John 13:36

• Simon Peter said to Him, "Lord, where are You going?"Jesus answered him, "Where I am going you cannot follow Me now, but you shall follow Me afterward." NKJV

Be FaithfulTo be faithful is to hope for

and act on things which are not seen.

Jesus Christ is the WAY Upward!• John 14:1-3• Phil 3:13• Brethren, I do not

regard myself as having laid hold of it yet; but one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead… NASB– V13 This one thing I do. – Paul had one great aim

and purpose of life.

God will make a way where there seems to be no way,He works in ways we cannot see,He will make a way for me.He will be my guide,Hold me closely to His side,With love and strength for each new day,He will make a way,He will make a way.
