“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).
According to this verse, God has only one way for us to be saved, and that is through the Lord Jesus Christ. If we do not accept the Lord Jesus as our Savior, we cannot be saved. There are many people in the world today who want to be saved their own way. They maintain that there are many ways to come to God, and that it does not matter how we come, as long as we are sincere. But this does not make sense, even in natural things.
I remember getting on a wrong highway when I was driving to Chicago, in the U.S.A. I was very sincere, and I drove about twenty miles (thirty-two kilometers) before I realized I was on the wrong road. I had to turn around and go all the way back to the right road. No amount of sincerity would have gotten me to Chicago on that road!
If we want to be saved, we must come in God’s way, and that is through His Son, the Lord Jesus. We cannot make up our own way.
