In John 14:6 Jesus states simply and powerfully that he is the way. Note he does not say that he is “a” way or “one” way. He is “the” way. In Jesus’ sermon on the mount in Matthew 7:13-14 we find a fuller description of the word picture of a path. Jesus advises to “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.” We can conclude from this additional scripture that the path we should follow is a road less travelled. Although it is less travelled we have the comfort that someone has gone before us and that if we are alert and focused it can be followed.
