Jesus is Christ Is the Saviour Of Mankind

The only way that man can be saved is through Christ. There is no other way.
John 14:6 says,  "Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: No man comes to the Father except through Me." The only way we can get to God is through Christ. We also read in Acts 4:12,  "Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved."

We cannot be saved by relying on other human names, Buddha, Judaism, Hindu gods or any other way. Neither can we devise our own system of "Christianity" as is being done today and expect it to save us.  Only Jesus Christ can specify the conditions for our salvation, because He paid our price and is our only saviour.   

Christ went through much suffering for our sins. It is beyond our imagination what he endured. Christ came to this earth for the purpose of dying for our sins. There are many Old Testament prophesies that foretell the inevitable death of Christ. For example, please read for yourself, Psalms chapter 22 and Isaiah chapter 53. Christ's death was no accident, because it was in God's eternal plan to redeem man.

Christ in his omniscience, fully knew what was soon going to happen. In Matthew 20:17-19 we read,  "Now Jesus, going up to Jerusalem, took the twelve disciples aside on the road and said to them, Behold we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and to the scribes; and they will condemn Him to death, and deliver Him to the Gentiles to mock and to scourge and to crucify. And the third day He will rise again". Christ went there willingly to die for us.

 From Genesis to Revelation the Bible is full of warning signs and they are meant by God to deter men from the inevitable wrath of God if men continue in the course of sin. All the way through the Bible in different settings and by different phrases and by different words God warns men. Because the old testament tells us that God has no pleasure in the death of the wicked. The new testament tells us that God is not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance. And because it is not the purpose of God in the creation of man that man should be doomed to hell, God then, throughout all of His revelation continues to warn men.

And as we come to chapter 3 of Hebrews verses 7 to 19, we have just another of God's warnings to unredeemed men, men on a sinful course to turn to Jesus Christ before it's too late. Now let me just give you a little background in regard to this clear imperative that we find in these verses. As you remember the book of Hebrews was written to a Jewish community.

 A Jewish community which had been visited by certain first apostles and prophets and under the preaching of those apostles and prophets had heard the gospel some had believed . unto salvation, others had believed but had not committed themselves to that belief and were hanging on the edge of believing but weren't willing to commit themselves because of the fear of persecution and the love of their own sin.

Then a third group weren't convinced at all and they were just there. So that when we look at the book of Hebrews we must be reminded that it was written with all three groups in mind. Parts of it are directed right at those new Christians, parts of it are directed to those non-Christians who aren't really accepting anything and parts of it, this part for example, are directed toward those non-Christians who have intellectual understanding, who know the gospel and are hanging right on the knife edge of decision.

This took place in Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing. The next day he saw Jesus coming toward him, and said,
"Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!"  Gospel of John 1:28-29

"This is my commandment: love one another as I love you. No one has greater love than this, to lay down his life for his friends." Gospel of John 15:12-13
