Why Jesus? Reasons 21-25

Many people want to argue that there is something discriminatory about Jesus' exclusive claims. However, when the facts be told, his exclusive place as the only Savior of the world begs the question of why anyone would refuse such a gift just because it is the only one available.

In this set of reasons regarding the necessity of dealing with Jesus Christ, we consider not only the distinctiveness of his place in all of life, but the effect he has on all who come to God through him.


 While the world says there are many ways to the gods of their design, Jesus is the only way to the only true God. All will be judged by their response to him.



Although we must deal with the exclusivity of Jesus as the way to God, we will never find a more gracious gift to the spiritually impoverished than what is found in Jesus the Christ.


Those who are captive to their sins will find the necessity of coming to Jesus. However, the fact that he frees them from captivity makes the coming completely worthwhile!


People who are tired of their spiritual blindness will not complain that Jesus is the only one who restores their sight. They will thank him that he is able to do so!



When Jesus brings the oppressed to the Father, he also gives them liberty from their oppression. Sinners come to know the time of God's favor, and his freedom from their sin.
