info_outlineGod Never Said There Are Many Ways to Heaven confronts the increasingly popular idea of universalism—the belief that all roads lead to God. Pastor Vicki Harrison compassionately challenges this with Scripture, grounding her message in John 14:6, where Jesus says, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” This isn’t just a comforting verse—it’s an exclusive claim of divine truth.
The sermon reminds us that bad theology leads to bad decision-making and distorted views of God, often fueled by cultural narratives rather than Biblical truth. While acknowledging the emotional and intellectual tension this topic can raise, Pastor Vicki holds fast to the truth that Jesus is not one way—He is the way.
Hell is addressed not as a scare tactic, but as a sobering reality: a place devoid of God’s presence. Rather than arguing about who’s in or out, we’re invited to focus on our responsibility—to reach the world for Jesus Christ by sharing the Gospel (Matthew 28:19).
If you’re wrestling with exclusivity, doubt, or injustice, you’re not alone. The message closes by calling us to trust in God’s wisdom (Isaiah 55:9) and live out our belief that Jesus is the only way to salvation.
