Did you get banned off a religious forum or something?
Why did you bother posting this?

The Lord Jesus Christ said this statement:
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. -John 14:6
Only by accepting him as your Lord and Savior can you be saved. No other religious path will get you to God, only Jesus can save you.
Only a few people find this path. We was given the Great Commission to reach all people "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen." -Matthew 28:19-20 Christ laid the duty on every believer to spread the Gospel so people might not perish.
But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man. -Hebrews 2:9
Jesus was put on the cross to suffer and die for eveyone! Because "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God" -Romans 3:23 Jesus was the only one without sin, no other religious leader ever claimed that "For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him." -2nd Corinthians 5:21 He is the only one to walk sinless on this earth and he took out sin upon himself when he died on the cross so we could have eternal life.
People of this world mock the cross because they live in darkness "And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not." -John 1:5 they are the ones who walk the broad path that leads to destruction. Only those who take the narrow way shall be saved from eternal torment. "And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire." -Revelation 20:15 and "And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth" -Matthew 13:42
Those who accept Christ have great hope for "And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away." -Revelation 21:4 we shall have no more death and pain. We will be new creations free from suffering.
We will live in the new Heaven and new Earth in the glory of God forever and ever. Amen.
