Way

Jesus says, “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” Long before, Jeremiah told the people to stand in the ways and ask for the old paths, where “the good way” is, and Isaiah pictured a highway called “The way of holiness” for the redeemed. In Acts, believers are known simply as people of “that way.” Paul says he persecuted this way unto the death, and later defends it before the governor Felix. Christians read the word as a road, a manner of life, and a person. John 14:1-6 is the place to begin.
