Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved (Acts 4:12).

The Bible is crystal clear on the subject of the Way to Heaven. In John 14:6, Jesus said he was the Way, the Truth and the Life, and that nobody comes to Heaven but through Him. Unless we go through Him, we are subject to God’s holy punishment of everlasting fire. The way to Heaven is not through good works, nor through sacraments or any religion. Many do not know this. A billion Catholics believe they come to Heaven through their sacraments and good works, but by not trusting in Christ solely, they are doomed (Gal 5:4). They consider themselves Christians, but they do not fit the biblical description of being a Christian. You must turn to the Lord to be saved, for He is the Way.

There’s only one Way to Heaven. So all other paths than the Lord Jesus are false and leads to Hell. Satan is truly a great deceiver, who invents lots of religions and philosophies which are not based on God’s Word (Col 2:8). Religion is the main tool Satan uses to lead people astray. Neither Buddhism, nor Islam, nor Catholicism, nor any other religion leads you to Heaven. They all have one common destination: the lake of fire. It is sad to see so many people being deceived by Satan to believe their religion is the right one. Their religions are all based on the father of lies’ lies.

There are many cultures and people who have never heard about Christ, so what about them?  Are they doomed?  Yes, they are. That’s a sad truth for many, but according to God's eternal decree, they weren't among His elect. God knows better than any sinful man, so we can rest assure that the best thing is being accomplished. They won’t escape God’s wrath, because, like everybody else, they have sinned (Rom 3:23). God has to punish sin. Therefore, God has also provided for us a way to be freed from our sins, by becoming man Himself, and shedding His blood on the cross 2000 years ago (Heb 9:22). Those who trust in His sacrifice’s sufficiency, are saved, and are on their way to Heaven. We must reach all people in the world with this great news, to tell God's sheep about it, so that they will believe. Remember Matthew 28:19: “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost”.

God bless.
