CHOSEN PATH<\/p>\n

by Bill Kochman<\/p>\n

Certain misguided people like to insist,
\nThere are many different paths to God,
\nBut if you closely study the Scriptures,
\nYou will see that idea is just plain odd.<\/p>\n

While it is true God uses many means,
\nTo lead our steps each and every one,
\nEventually we will come to understand,
\nThe only true path is thru His dear Son.<\/p>\n

Now folks will surely say what they like,
\nThey\u2019ll point to certain holy men of old,
\nBut unless your faith is in Jesus Christ,
\nTrust me, you will be left out in the cold.<\/p>\n

History tells us of some great teachers,
\nMany have spoken of wisdom & peace,
\nThere\u2019s one thing only Jesus did for us,
\nFrom death He bought us sure release.<\/p>\n

And so we see it is for that very reason,
\nThat the Father elevated Him above all,
\nI pray that you will likewise accept Him,
\nOn the day Jesus gives your heart a call.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
