Luke 4:12

"Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved." - Luke 4:12.

Many people react negatively to the fact that there is no other name than that of Jesus to call on for Salvation. Yet this is not something the church decided; it is the specific teaching of Jesus Himself (John 14:6). 


If God designated Jesus to be the Saviour of the world, no one else can be His equal. Christians are to be open- minded on many issues, but not on how we are saved from sin. 


No other religious teacher could die for our sins; no other religious teacher came to earth as God's only Son; no other religious teacher rose from the dead. Our focus should be on Jesus, whom God offered as the way to have an Eternal relationship with Himself. 


There is no other name or way.
