The Christ Way Is the Right Way

LINNIE NEWMAN GREEN

In the fourteenth chapter of the Gospel of St. John we read one of the most tender and comforting discourses ever made by Jesus to his faithful disciples. They had eaten their last meal together before his crucifixion and he was preparing them for his departure. His words, "And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know," were challenged by Thomas. But Jesus answered, "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."

Though he had been living and teaching the way before them, some of these chosen followers had not grasped the full meaning of his ministry. Even so today, the Christ, the healing and saving manifestation of God which Jesus so fully exemplified, is not universally understood as it speaks in the same comforting words to tired, sick, and sinning humanity, pointing the way to all who will listen and follow.
