“Lord, to whom shall we go?” – John 6:68
In these days when we hear so many say, “One religion is just as good as another” we need to give serious consideration to this question. All roads might have led to Rome, but all religions do not lead to heaven. Jesus Himself made this clear in John 14:6 where He said, “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” Commenting on our text, Vance Havner wrote:
Where could we go? Look down all other roads and see what they have to offer. It is Christ or else. The wisdom of man, the religions of the world, have no answer to the soul’s desperate cry, “Where could I go but to the Lord?”
Where would we go? If we do not follow the Light we go out into darkness, utter and eternal. We would go to hell if we did not go to Him. “He that believeth not is condemned already.”
Where should we go? To Jesus of course. Plain common sense tells us that nothing else satisfies. He has proven His case long ago. We ought to be Christians. God commands us to repent and believe.
It is a matter of eternal alternatives: saved or lost, justified or condemned, heaven or hell. “He that is not with me is against me.”
“There is a way which seemeth right unto a man.” “I am the way.” Which way are you going?
