Yesterday we looked at John 14:6 and saw that Jesus is the way to heaven. Today let’s look at the rest of the verse.
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
John 14:6 NIV
Jesus is the Truth. This stands to reason since God is perfect and Jesus is part of the Godhead. Jesus not only speaks truth, he is incapable of deviating from it because He IS Truth. Conclusion: We can trust Him completely.
Jesus is the Life. Because we know that his words are true, we know that it is through Him that we will live eternally with the Father in heaven. Heaven by definition is being in the presence of God. The Holy Spirit (God) lives within us who are believers. Therefore heaven is now. Conclusion: Eternal life through Jesus is now.
LORD, thank you for providing us the way, the truth, and the life — Jesus. Thank you that our eternity with you doesn’t have to wait until we die.
