ARE YOU
CONFUSED?

You have reason to be! With
a mountain of literature and q
host Of voices each contradict
ing the other, it is no small
wonder man desperately cries
with Thomas of old, How can
we know the way?" Let the
Son of God answer your own
question. Jesus said, 81 am the
way no man cometh unto
the Father, but by me-" (Jn.-
1850.
Notice, He did not say, "The
church is the way" nor did He
even intimate that "the Chris
tan way of life" is the way.
He didn't say that Christianity
is the way-because it isn't. He
simply said, 81 AM THE WAY!"
Peter the Apostle added,
"Neither is there salvation in
any other" (Acts 4:12). Your
eternal destiny depends upon
what you do with Jesus Christ.
