Jesus called Himself the Way, the Truth, and the Life. He emphasized that no one came to the Father except through Him. Since He is the Truth, when we believe the Truth, we find ourselves set free from sin. Sin separates us from God; accepting Jesus as Savior breaks the chains of sin and bonds us with the Father. What incredible freedom! To be victors over death! To know intimacy with God! To be sure of eternity with Him! To be free is to be at peace with God and with oneself. JESUS is the Truth who sets us free.
