Some people say it's pretty elite that there is only one way to get to Heaven. But I say thank God that there is a way, at all, to get to Heaven! Imagine it like this: you have dirty dishes sitting in dirty dish water for days maybe weeks. It smells and is sick for all senses. The water is dark and stale. You know that when you reach in to pull the plug it will be cold and greasy and makes you disgusted to think about or maybe even gives you chills. Or imagine a clogged toilet, yuck. To an extent this is what God did for us! He pulled up his sleeve and reached into our filthy world to clean it up!

Just like it takes oxygen to fill our lungs and keep us alive, it takes Jesus to give us eternal life. You might think that just being religious or good is good enough to give eternal life but the fact is breathing is not what it takes. If you're breathing anything other than air, you're suffocating. Anything other than Jesus is just water. Try breathing in that! You have to have the real thing to keep you alive.
