Towering over two thousand feet above Rio de Janeiro stands Corcovado and the famous
statue of Christ that sits dramatically above this beautiful South American city.
The only way to walk to the top requires traveling up a single steep, challenging, twisting road.
I should know as I hiked both up and down it and it was the toughest hike of my life!
If you were in Rio and you asked someone
“How do you get to the top of Corcovado?” and they
said “There are many roads!”
it would be obvious they didn’t know,
or actually believed they did know.
Others have actually said the same regarding
the road that leads to heaven.
Oprah Winfrey once famously proclaimed on her TV show that there were many roads to God
(be it Buddha, Confucius, Allah, Self-Realization, 'Being Spiritual,' or just being
a good moral person.) Sadly, this is also what many people also think and believe,
but just like Corcovado there is only one road to get there, and this is to
and through the Cross of Christ.
The next verse after today’s scripture speaks of an alternate route - a wide road
that most people travel, but that road does not lead to the eternity that they had hoped.
In fact the word in the original language says instead leads to the way of eternal destruction.
Friend, you can believe any map that you feel leads you to heaven and God - or even no god at all.
The question you have to answer is Which Road Is The Right Road?
Jesus said “I AM THE WAY”
So “Are there MANY ways to heaven?
...Or just ONE WAY?”
Which road are you on?
