Christianity is
often portrayed as exclusionary. Here is
one of the texts that are used to show that Christianity is exclusionary.
John 14:6(NKJV)
Jesus said to
him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
Jesus is clearly
saying that no one comes to the Father (God) except through Jesus. Many say that is exclusionary. Many think that you should be able to get
into Heaven whether you believe in Jesus or not. I would disagree.
God is the creator
of Heaven and Earth. It's His
thing. He gets to set the rules. So let's look at the rules He set. As far as getting into Heaven, there is
basically one requirement. Faith in
Jesus.
All of those who
believe in Jesus get in to Heaven. No
exceptions. So if everyone on earth can
get into Heaven whether God wants them there or not, just by believing in
Jesus, is it really exclusionary?
