The way to God is in recognition of the fact that we’re a sinner; we need a sacrifice, that which points to the Lord Jesus Christ. Before He came and since He came, it must be a faith in Him—so that today the way to God is not a church, and I believe in the church. And it’s not a ceremony, and I believe in a ceremony. It’s not in service, although service certainly has its place. But it’s in a personal relationship to Jesus Christ. “I am the way, the truth and the life; no man cometh to the Father, but by me.” And you come as a sinner. You come trusting Him as a Savior.

Allow grace to revolutionize your own life through these seven lessons from Dr. J. Vernon McGee.
