The word ‘good’ has many meanings. For example, if a man were to shoot his grandmother at a range of five hundred yards, I should call him a good shot, but not necessarily a good man. – G. K. Chesterton
Christendom is very clear. Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Light. Nobody can go to the father except through Jesus Christ. If a person does not accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, then they shall be cast into the pits of hell for all eternity where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth. None can go to the Father besides through Jesus, and that ultimately, every tongue will be forced to confess that Jesus Christ is Lord Forever.
Now then, if this is true, that there is no way into heaven than through Jesus, why are Christians such cowards? We know that we have the only answer to eternal life, yet we are afraid to share because of making a relationship awkward. We refuse to vote Christian policies because we are forcing our religion on others. What is wrong with Christians? Are we a bunch of sociopaths that wish to see our friends, family, coworkers cast into the fire of hell? Are we hypocrites that do not truly believe that the Bible is God’s inspired word and, therefore, the best basis for governance? Are we so quick to claim better knowledge of eternity than the Uncreated One, or do we simply wish for damnation on the populace? We know we have the objective truth, so why would we muddle it for the sake of damning others to hell, both eternally and carnally?
Therefore, be bold in sharing the gospel, and be not afraid to push Christian values and virtue in politics.
I am trying here to prevent anyone saying the really foolish thing that people often say about Him: I’m ready to accept Jesus as a great moral teacher, but I don’t accept his claim to be God. That is the one thing we must not say. A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic — on the level with the man who says he is a poached egg — or else he would be the Devil of Hell. You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the Son of God, or else a madman or something worse. You can shut him up for a fool, you can spit at him and kill him as a demon or you can fall at his feet and call him Lord and God, but let us not come with any patronizing nonsense about his being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to. — C. S. Lewis
