God’s way is like a river that no matter where you jump in; headwaters-midriver-downstream, right bank-left bank, God’s way always ends up, in Christ. \u00a0Or maybe God’s way is like ten thousand foot paths that all come together to form a huge highway. \u00a0Wherever you are on the journey, God’s way always leads to Christ.<\/p>\n
Of course God’s way leads to Christ but once you have found Him, you have found God! \u00a0God says to the seeker, ‘to find me is always by way of my Son, and if you have found Me you have found My Son’. The way to God initially comes to the foot of the cross, to the Savior who was slain before the foundation of the world, played out in time almost two thousand years ago. God’s work, in God’s way, is seen by anyone who would come to Him for salvation as already finished, already accomplished, already complete through Christ the Savior.<\/p>\n
God’s standards require absolute perfection and all His standards have been met in Christ. \u00a0Sin against God and it’s consequence death, is what keeps mankind from God. \u00a0The recognition of this fact and trust in Christ’s death, His sacrifice on that cross in the sinner’s place get the sinner back to God as the analogy of the river and the road point out. \u00a0From start to finish everything in God’s Word points mankind to Christ. \u00a0And once a person has seen and embraced God’s Word concerning Christ, that person finds they have seen and embraced God, because God’s way to Christ leads to God Himself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
